You know, I was trying to come up with a well reasoned argument as to why you’re wrong, but I realized that you had no intention to actually discuss. You came here to clutch your pearls and cry “so much for the tolerant left, they’re the real bad guys!”
So instead, fuck you.
“Won’t someone think of the dead white nationalist? Sure, he was racist, hateful, and spread nothing but misinformation and pain, but he was also a human. Therefore you should only feel sorry for him.” Fuck that. Do I think anyone should be killed for their beliefs? No. Am I required to feel sorry because his chickens came home to roost at a tremendously ironic time? Also no.
I mean, he is demonstrably dead, unless you’ve got some info that the rest of us don’t. He can have thoughts and prayers for all the good it will do him.
I really want to know what was going on in the head of the first person to eat yogurt. “Hey mark, you know that milk we were trying to turn into cheese? Well it’s not milk anymore, and it’s not cheese either. I’m going to try it with some berries or something.”
Nah man, that’s not the purpose of unrestrained capitalism. The point is to get big enough that you can buy out all the competition, then make your product cheaper and cheaper once there’s no one to compete against. It’s a bit like an economical algae bloom.
Could make decent insulation too
I don’t often run across a piece of pure poetry in the wild. Well said!
Hey hey, we also want people not to starve or go into horrific debt because of medical issues. Super clear indicators of fascism or something.
A fish who is a sadist in his sexual relations with other fish obviously.
That is a remarkably shitty argument. “Sure, I know the system is wrong and only hurts people, but it’s the system! You can’t just go and reform systems so they stop hurting people! Think of the investment bankers!”
We can and should change things, and part of that is helping the people who have been hurt by the system.
In what other situation would we be okay with allowing an 18 year old with no income to take out tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt? The system is purpose built to fuck over the better part of two generations of people.
