Day 278: Two things I want

Aug 27, 2012 19:36

This question makes me remember wouldprefernot2's answer on some three-peat meme, to "three things you'd like to see" -- he had a very beautifully articulated (as when did he not) response involving a world-historical defeat for the US that didn't involve religious nuts. What two things do I want?

1. Socialism, not barbarism -- the defeat of capitalism's rapacity and inhumanity, but not its replacement by squalor and environmental disaster. Or fascism. Not that either.

2. the ability to turn any book I already own into a compatible ebook file that will easily go into Kindle or iBooks or whatever. Some kind of autoscanner, I guess.

books, politics, meme
