Fortunately, we have socialist systems to produce all the useful innovations and inventions we rely on every day. The iPhone, beloved by millions? Produced by socialists. The modern integrated circuit, developed and produced by socialists. Even the transistor, the result of work in a government lab.
Right?

@AlexanderKingsbury@mastodon.social A stance against the color green doesn't imply advocacy for brown, which is what you seem to imply. I am not sure what is your point with iPhones - a product of luxury. Semiconductor industry is not a good example of consumer-driven sector, it being supported by military funding throughout history - transistor, IC, microprocessor, and key industries like research centers, foundries supported or straight out owned by governments (Taiwan, UAE, newly US 😃)
