unsurprising
well
that tulsa is tulsa and broken arrow
I think there needs to be some effort to clean up those cities.
meaning?
Rehabilitating the criminal element, teaching them how to hold down a job and earn a honest living.

Give them more opportunities to lift themselves out of crime.

Give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. Teach him how to fish, you feed him for a lifetime.
Kill the man and you keep the fish,
Communism works people!
Communism is taking all his fish and distributing it to the people who are too lazy too. What is left over is then given back to him aka the bones.
Well if we are talking about communism, there would be presumably no one being "too lazy" to work
They just assume people will work for free. Sorry but human nature is greedy.
Anyways I need to lay down, I am passing out at the keyboard.
No work hard? GO TO GULAG
@Timcast Thanks for being a great journalist, you open my eyes to many things that I normally wouldn't be able to see. Keep up the good work!
Thanks for talking to me Captain...
I do appreciate being able to talk about these things and learning new things.
Broadening my knowledge.
The more I know, the better I can understand the world around me and be able to effect it in a meaningful way. Being ignorant of the situation will only serve to make things worse. ^_^
Agreed
Re: communism, not owning your own labour is effectively slavery. How can you own yourself when you can't own the fruits of your labour?
Re: Trump
So did the left want President Pence or did they just not think ahead?
real communism doesn't work, realistic communism is just killing anyone who doesn't serve 😛
They call that socialism :^)
"If we separate all the murder into a separate stage it doesn't count"
Commies are that guy who rejoins the server to fix his k/d
true
doesn't work cuz after a while its bad anyway
Communism would need two things to work: total conformity in the rejection of private property , or a very advanced state of post-scarcity
The former is simply impossible because of free will, greed and egos of the humans
The latter may never happen because of exclusive items always existing and being in demand
Should we ever try? Can't we just settle down with something that already works? No?
Even then, social loafing undermines the overall system
And a centralized economy cannot be counted on for efficiency
controversial opinion: communism BAD
"So did the left want President Pence or did they just not think ahead?"
from experience and observation, they do not think ahead.
even post scarcity won't work, communism needs everyone to never try and gain authority
and its human nature to just want a little bit more
Communism could work in small scale. Small enough so that those who do not conform or no longer want to conform can leave the group without significant upset. But we are talking like town sized communities.
