Ever since I learned that pretty much all utilities are publicly-traded stocks on the stock market as for-profit companies that wealthy mfs talk about “diversifying their portfolio” with “in the energy sector” I’ve been so disturbed.
The idea that utilities are for-profit is just so f***ed up and deranged.
Not all at all. Lots of utilities are Consumer Cooperatives.
Lots of people working at those cooperatives don’t even know that consumer and worker cooperatives are market socialist and tend to be conservative which annoys the heck out of me.

You are allowed to say “fucked” 🤣
Thats the problem with internet you never really know what is allowed where. Doubly so in places like lemmy or reddit where rules depend on community
