- Comment on Always table talk here. Is it wrong to Steal from a Major Corp without harming anyone or is it wrong to steal from a mom and pop shop not harming anyone? Both still a crime but how should i be punish? 2 weeks ago:
Morality exists so that a society may function theft is thus a breakdown of said society.
Then again morality itself is a social construct. This no such thing as morality or ethics or right or wrong or laws their are simply actions and consequences. A functional society will have sufficient consequences to ensure that the society can continue to function.
For a functional society both should be punished sufficiently harshly to ensure that its not something anyone does. For example if theft of $1 worth of goods resulted in a death penalty nobody would steal anything and u wouldn’t need to lock anything up. You could have phones in a tech store just sitting there without being locked down with the cable thing cos nobody would dare steal it.

- Comment on How would I go about finding hidden government waste besides a simple google search? Especially if I know they are still misusing it to this date? 2 weeks ago:
Its simple u take control of the government then u make a giant database of every single employee money source input and output and organisation. U give energy agency 2weeks to comply or face death penalty under some trumped up charges about betrayal of the nation or some shit. U execute/lock up everyone who doesn’t comply and cut their funding. U make a snitch line and promise 20% of the money saved from fraud to whoever snitched.
Now u have a giant db with everything and have executed the worse offenders that will stop 80% overnight. You then find one dodgy entity in the db execute everyone and use their records to find who they are associated with. Repeat forever.
Give me unchecked power and 3 million dollars and I can clean up all fraud in any system. Its a simple problem to solve just that nobody wants to.
PS u gotta do public executions to send a message. Fear has and always will work.
“Upon this a question arises: whether it be better to be loved than feared or feared than loved? It may be answered that one should wish to be both, but because it is difficult to unite them in one person, it is much safer to be feared than loved, when, of the two, either must be dispensed with.” - Niccolò Machiavelli (The Prince)

What they saying that colonisation wasn’t effective at modernising these people and that he gets a reduced sentence because we did a shit job at colonisation.
- Comment on Why do some racist, classist, homophobic ect people do "good" things sometimes? 5 weeks ago:
The philosophical justification for fascism is utilitarianism which essentially boils down to the greatest good for the greatest number of people. It is as Plato said about democracy tyrant of the majority.
Nobody believes that they are bad or evil. People come across as this as their goals are just different from your own. Muslim terrorist believe they are saving the world by doing terrorism. Israeli Zionists believe they are making heaven on earth by their actions in Gaza etc etc.
So its just a matter of what particular flavour of evil u are willing to be for your desired outcomes. U have the choices of blind religious extremism (religious terrorist or Zionist of Christan crusader, hyper rationalism separated from emotion (fasicm or communism depending on ur interpretation). Hyper emotionalism which just makes u a useful idiot to whoever can present the ideology that signals GRE greatest virtue.
So what do u choose?

- Comment on How do wealthy people know if the people they meet are wealthy or not? 1 month ago:
Exclusive or elitist events, activities, education. Also how people dress and hold themselves is often a good indicator (most refer to this as class). The obvious question of what do u do is very effective at filtering out the low lives. Also networks and who you know is the real value in the inheritance not the money or assets. From a young age your taught to network and figure these things out without being too explicit and to find the people that will be successful before they are successful and if they are playing a similar game it snowballs from there.

Everyone things that its the right wing rising its simply that the left went too far left to the point that the silent majority (the middle) without changing have found themselves on the right.
- Comment on Am I right to be afraid of germs / is my family disgusting or am I overreacting and this is germaphobia? (read post) 1 month ago:
I’ve found that the human body is remarkably resistant to a lot of shit the germaphobe thing has gone a bit far imo. That been said ur house looks like a fucking shithole. I’d be more worried about the mental toll living in a pigstye like that. That’s fucking disgusting not necessarily a health risk unless u got mould on shit ur eating (and even then odds are ur fine, most moulds are nontoxic, only a few can kill you).

Inflation always goes up. Both parties are just 2 sides if the same coin. But they other things u mentioned are a bit misleading cos inflation under trump is way better than biden. And cost of living was mostly a bidden problem.
Inflation1000009365 As u can see the big bump is bidden the rest is trump.
I vagly remember everyone saying trump was failing cos egg prices kept going up. 1000009364 Looks like trunk kept his promise.
And we can get a feel for cost of living CPI (consumer price index) CPI1000009366 Its continuously going up but at a far slower rate under trump compared to biden.
Are u saying that u should lie to trump/Vance voters or are you simply unaware of the actual data?

Perhaps speak out against the violence taking place at the hands of the radical left. Stop supporting trans ideology. Stop supporting DEI policies that systematically disadvantage them. Stop supporting rampant immigration. Stop trying to take gun rights and free speech away. Stop supporting people who are using violence and illegal action against a department that is doing its legally mandated duty at behest of the people via democracy (ice).
Ohh and also perhaps try treating them like people not as pawns for your own political ends.
Good luck but I think you will find that these people don’t want to vote for trump or Vance they want to vote for someone more extreme. They didn’t choose this they where pushed here.

- Comment on Those of you who are angry at the US for allowing ICE to stifle people's liberties - how do you channel your anger and irritation? 3 months ago:
Its called democracy. And tyranny of the majority. It is the failure of democracy we have known this for thousands of since since when fucking Plato wrote about it. That being said under the social contract we have all accepted that we will accept the actions of the majority because we live in a democracy.
I don’t care that some people will take offence at what I’m saying. Free speech baby. Please tell me what is wrong about my original statement?
