You might talk to God and ask him to help.
Holy shit that wall of text
Stopped reading at "with no solutions at hand"
hey Amadeus why haven't you contributed to this discussion at all
Because it looks like you're larping as someone who knows what he's talking about while bringing no solutions to the table
Isn't that what you're doing?
Its true because I said so
because I too like to ignore things people write and pretend they're saying nothing substantive
It's true because you said so. Hmm.
Anyway we all have our ideas of how to fix society. We haven't yet tried to regulate all evil as we have with, say, the tobacco industry under the guise of "promoting the fee market" and capitalism
You haven't been ignored. History has tested your ideology. And the principles it stands upon are immoral and do not work.
Oh? How do you know?
People smoked in Germany too
Yeah before we knew it caused cancer
And tobacco use has steadily declined
and created a public health burden
Now being a small minority
Yeah because we've been taxing the shit out of it
No, because of social stigma and public health concerns
Addicts will still buy their dope regardless of the price.
Yeah the addicts will
Smokers are addicts.
But it highly dissuades new smokers
Hasn't dissuaded me. I don't know what it costs. I've never tried it. Purely because of health concerns.
But hey let's do it your way. Let's stop taxing cigarettes. What could go wrong? It'll be fine
No, I'd ban them with the same justification as banning cocaine
So I'm gonna give you some advice dude, take it or leave it. First, a wise priest told me once that you should never believe yourself to be so important to a good work that you can't take a day off for your own enjoyment.
And as for relationships and family. If she's used meat, damaged goods, she will never love you. She will never completely be yours. She will always think about some other dudes dick. Not you. You're the consolation prize. And ultimately you were unworthy of her purity anyway, so she too is a consolation prize. Chances are, you'll end up divorced. And because she's a woman and the system favors them, you're going to lose your kids, pay child support and alimony, and be lucky to see your children every other weekend. A decent probability that she will accuse you of domestic violence and the judge will believe her. This means you'll never own a gun again, and are banned from military and law enforcement, forever, without exception. You'll have a protection order, that bans you from ever talking to her or her family and friends, and have to get your kids by a supervised exchange that you will pay for. And every job you apply for, will know about your DV conviction,.
Yeah I've seen that copy pasta several times now
And we know it cuts deep bro
But it's for the best
Yeeees
I'm at a loss how it's applicable to our current situation tho
Your concerns are for your people and your family.
And I just gave you the best gold nuggets you'll ever find
We fundamentally disagree that unregulated capitalism can be abused and subverted to destroy cultures, even though Antonio Gramsci, godfather of Cultural Marxism, and subsequently the KGB, selected the institutions of capitalism for targeting in order to destroy Western nation states. You talk to me about ignoring history but it seems you're doing the same. We have collectively identified problems wihth our system and recommended changes. I eagerly await your solution, as I understand the value of a multi-pronged approach
All systems are capable of falling victim to the same thing
So fuck it?
Why not craft safeguards into your system of choice
Do what is proven to work and don't worry yourself too much about the flaws.
