No, it refers to commies from the paris commune.

2019-01-18 02:47:16 UTC  

Abolish the political class!

2019-01-18 02:49:58 UTC  

People who think lenin would have been any better than stalin are retarded.

2019-01-18 02:50:29 UTC  

Dude is just as genocidal as Marx.

2019-01-18 02:51:10 UTC  

Stupid communards.

2019-01-18 03:04:21 UTC  

The idea of the state "withering away" is a spook. Abolish dat shit yo.

2019-01-18 03:10:15 UTC  

halfthink: "Abolish spooks."

2019-01-18 03:11:35 UTC  

Abolish your mum's vagina.

2019-01-18 03:16:27 UTC  

To avoid confusion, by abolish the state I mean privatize everything.

2019-01-18 03:17:48 UTC  

that's not a good thing

2019-01-18 03:17:54 UTC  

the Problem is centralization

2019-01-18 03:17:58 UTC  

its not the stae

2019-01-18 03:18:16 UTC  

so you have to decentralize it and bring the power down, closer to the people.

Watching the Yellow Vests vid from yesterday

2019-01-18 03:18:29 UTC  

ie if a county does something it works way better than the state

That's scary af

2019-01-18 03:19:36 UTC  

In Germany we would call that "Gemeinde", if it is at that level it usually (not always) works pretty well, a step above that (Kreis) also. But at the "Land" level the Problem starts showing. And on the "Germany" Level you can forget everything, its a total clusterfuck

2019-01-18 03:38:09 UTC  

The state is centralization. If the state is subject to the same market forces as the private sector, it will become decentralized.

@halfthink If you do that stuff at the lowest, most local level, that isn't centralized 😉

*>A state is a compulsory political organization with a centralized government that maintains a monopoly on the legitimate use of force within a certain geographical territory.*

Abolish dat yo.

Is it true that Trump has caused the national debt to increase?

2019-01-18 15:57:09 UTC  

Specifically that the raise is Trump's fault, simply the fact that it's gone up is kind of irrelevant

2019-01-18 16:05:30 UTC  

Kinda

2019-01-18 16:05:38 UTC  

It's due to the tax cut that he signed

2019-01-18 16:06:02 UTC  

You could also blame Republicans for not cutting spending

2019-01-18 16:28:01 UTC  

Ah

2019-01-18 16:28:57 UTC  

The tax cut he signed could have been a lot better imo, but it also could have been a lot worse

2019-01-18 17:51:09 UTC  

We need to get an accountant into the office. Like it's not hard to balance a budget. Look at the last 3-5 years of tax income rev, low ball the number a bit, and just cut back everything the same amount.

2019-01-18 18:36:36 UTC  

@Grenade123 but but cutting any spending other than military is bad!!!!

2019-01-18 18:43:34 UTC  

honestly even though im mostly republican and conservative i agree that the military has way too much of the budget and we need to cut back on spending for them

2019-01-18 18:43:43 UTC  

like theres security and defense and then theres

2019-01-18 18:43:44 UTC  

oof

2019-01-18 19:59:25 UTC  

TBF, we spend more on education than military and we get snowflakes out of schools

2019-01-18 20:08:46 UTC  

americans need to reinstate draft

2019-01-18 20:08:53 UTC  

easy life makes weak people

2019-01-18 20:09:11 UTC  

2 years of slogging in the shit would do wonders and give people some perspective
