Any of the **** you guys post about our govt would warrant the death penalty there if it were directed towards the party.
If that’s what it takes that’s what it takes.

Even if you can name a thousand reasons why it’s the wrong path it doesn’t change the truth that it’s the ONLY path. Maybe every attempt has gone horribly wrong but the entire philosophy and belief that any man should be allowed to accumulate more than he needs has to be eradicated. There’s no negotiating with it. Even if 99 times out of 100 the killers don’t practice what they preach that one time in 100 is our only chance.

Perhaps the idea that one man or one small group with ultimate power can serve the public good should be eradicated. It's been an idea for thousands of years and never once has it produced anything but rampant inequality.

Yeah. It really must be done by taboo enforced by mob violence.

The Batlord 04-24-2020 07:08 PM

Yeah autocrats inciting mobs is a great idea.

The Batlord 04-24-2020 07:20 PM

Except it's not the truth. You might as well say that a multinational corporation might end up being a philanthropist bastion of goodness. It's not in the nature of either. You're just engaging in socialist fanfiction like morons.

as bad as any communist dictatorship has been, environmental catastrophe will be worse

I wouldn't go for either option, but there's an illusion that keeping things relatively close to how they are is even worth considering

it's even called pragmatic to let the world end

So goddamn nice I’m quoting it twice.

Yeah but unless you're a third world ****hole you're not going to even get the chance to try out a communist dictatorship. It's like being a 300 lb football player wishing you could be on the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover. You're a moron for even wishing for it.
