Mozilla pays its CEOs millions and millions of dollars. They exist to get funding from Chrome to look like there is competition in the industry.

You mean global north/ global south.

Developing and developed are considered negatively.

But in terms of laypeople words, that are used every day, 1st and 3rd world mean the same thing.

You’re thinking of ML tankies.

Communism is a stateless, classless, system where people enact mutualism and socialism without state coercion.

Yes and what about it?

Socialists would be in favour of state ownership of resources.

Anarchists and communists wouldn't be in favour of a state.

What do progressives value about state ownership of utils, are they for it, against it?

TIL: Way too many people think it's still the Cold War. Language changes people.

Nope that was apparently too confusing, now we say global north and global south.

It's a much better system, see Australia in the south of the globe, is in the global north for instance. It just makes perfect sense.

What, progressives are in favour of state owned utils or aren't? Explain yourself properly.

I am not sure why this is the case.

Because Lemmy was created by leftists having their communities banned from reddit. It is and always will be a leftist platform, same as whatever garbage Trump made will be a right wing platform.

Yes. It's an American term used to describe those who are in opposition to conservative views. It's not an ideology.

But please, tell me what being a progressive values compared to any other leftist. What makes a progressive different from a anarchist, communist, or a dem soc who have defined values and beliefs?
