hey

how ya doin'

good, just a little drunk

but I know I am so it isn't too bad

where do I get my roles?

fuck

I missed that

yep

but I can still type with my eyes closed

fuck all y'all

just did

I typed fuck all y'all with my eyes closed

go back to the gulag you damn commie and stop blaming the wealthy for all your problems

I ain't tryna start shit so don't start anything

I'm poor but laissez faire anyways

I see redistribution as robbery and it makes no sense

not to mention it often times doesn't work

and I don't want anyone to give me something I can't get myself

nah, those aren't basic needs

and people need to put in the effort to earn those

or else society will not function

how is education a basic need

and food isn't

it's unfair but life is unfair and I'm not gonna trust some omnipotent state to manage my own affairs for me

education isn't necessary for life so therefore it isn't necessary

making things more fair doesn't help, it just makes everyone worse off

instead of letting people use their own skills to their own advantage

false, they do but they don't have the motivation to cease it

^

also, most of the time, government support of big corporations prevent people from reaching their goals

I'm the son of a poor alcoholic from Alabama and I'm not complaining because I am not gonna suck off of someone else's wealth that I'm not entitled to. It is immoral to steal from someone who earned their wealth naturally.

The government won't give it to a starving family, they'll give it to themselves

You actually have that much faith in the government?

they are the historical great oppressor no matter where in the world you are

they take away your social and economic freedoms

and you actually trust them?

I trust no government

If I can take care of myself, I do

and I go to my community, not my government, for support

I do, there is a difference between people being genuinely kind and a bureaucracy

Nah

democracy is retarded

always leads to minority suppression

if you are in the minority, your voice will never be heard

and letting people lead themselves blindly is just stupid

not to mention, if everything goes to Hell, you can never find who to blame for the atrocities committed

yeah

they do

they don't know how to get it

and never have

you share an opinion with nobody else

nobody is exactly the same politically

and pure democracy is probably the worst form of government

because the will of the people can change on a whim

and people are generally stupid

again, they may know what they want but that doesn't mean they know how to get it

but it can be 100 people yelling blindly

which makes the government no better

how?

No, a mix of a republican form of government along with a system in which someone who has been trained to rule from birth ceases the throne

government needs balance between the two

you cannot have pure absolutism or pure democracy

a true balance of powers is key

that's so stupid, what do you mean the people know what they want? Most of the time they don't have any idea of what they support and have no idea what they want. Of course there is no common ground when your entire argument is just "the people know what they want" which is just completely untrue.

I don't want to continue this debate

I didn't want to start it

ok
