But I certainly understand in part where you are coming from, the 'women want equality until they have to fit the gender roles of a man and get a real job' idea is not uncommon. But, the underlying point I'm trying to get out is that the actions of few should not account for the many.
For example, the Klu Klux Klan touted the word of God, so did many slave owners in the early 19th Century. However, this does not mean that Christians are racist or pro-enslavement of black skinned people.

did you know that slavery is technically still legal?

2019-04-30 01:16:44 UTC  

there is a loophole in the 13th amendment

2019-04-30 01:16:47 UTC  

"Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction."

2019-04-30 01:19:40 UTC  

Amendment yikes

2019-04-30 01:20:04 UTC  

Thats how the prison can force prisoners to work

2019-04-30 01:20:57 UTC  

So the prison is a shit hole and a fuck fest just like in Hollywood movies?

2019-04-30 01:21:26 UTC  

Based

2019-04-30 02:12:51 UTC  

Aren't we pushing for a prison reform?

2019-04-30 02:13:45 UTC  

Keep em in prison

2019-04-30 02:14:07 UTC  

Who's them?

2019-04-30 02:21:13 UTC  

Literally everyone that has committed a crime that warrants prison time

2019-04-30 02:21:26 UTC  

Oh yeah and the death penalty is immoral

2019-04-30 02:21:42 UTC  

To the tax payers that have to pay to keep those fools alive

2019-04-30 02:21:51 UTC  

A bullet to the head will do

2019-04-30 02:26:07 UTC  

Interesting.

2019-04-30 02:28:13 UTC  

Indeed

2019-04-30 02:28:13 UTC  

GG @ilovepb&j, you just advanced to level 1!

2019-04-30 15:09:04 UTC  

Venezuela is undergoing a coup right now

2019-04-30 15:18:54 UTC  

Is it?

2019-04-30 15:18:55 UTC  

Based

2019-04-30 15:18:59 UTC  

Yeah

2019-04-30 15:19:02 UTC  

Totally based

2019-04-30 15:53:01 UTC  

For those who missed the Spanish Elections (176 needed for a majority):
PSOE - 123 seats
PP - 66 seats
Ciudadamos - 55 seats
Unidos Podemos - 42 seats
Vox - 24 seats
Independent and Regional Parties - 40 seats

2019-04-30 15:54:10 UTC  

Possible Left Wing Coalition (PSOE + Podemos) = 165 (short by 11 seats)

2019-04-30 15:56:16 UTC  

They're still capitalist though, so, are they truly left wing??

2019-04-30 15:58:29 UTC  

I mean Podemos is increadibly against banks and is talking about increasing welfare and shit

2019-04-30 15:58:52 UTC  

That is still capitalist

2019-04-30 16:00:24 UTC  

Podemos officially identify as "Democratic Socialists"

2019-04-30 16:02:40 UTC  

And the leader of Podemos is a proper Socialist

2019-04-30 16:04:03 UTC  

What do you define as Socialist??

2019-04-30 16:06:28 UTC  

I mean he's advocated for the Italian Communist Party, has endorced Jeremy Corbyn, he's named after the founder of the Spanish Socialist Worker's Party (PSOE) and used to be a part of the Communist Youth Union of Spain

2019-04-30 16:06:57 UTC  

Jeremy Corbyn is no socialist, and again what do you consider socialism??

2019-04-30 16:09:48 UTC  

Tbh, I've never really defined Socialism properly as I myself am for some left-wing policies (free healthcare, benifits to an extent, etc)

2019-04-30 16:10:43 UTC  

Socialism is worker owned means of production, the rate of payment also changes from a set wage to the labor theory of value.

2019-04-30 16:11:05 UTC  

Then what's CommunismM

2019-04-30 16:12:01 UTC  

So, you produce sponges for example, and each one is worth $10.00, so the basic like ridiculously simplified equation is 10x, so every x amount of sponges is worth 10 x in that situation.

2019-04-30 16:12:25 UTC  

Communism is communal control of the means of production. With no state, no class, and no need for money.

2019-04-30 16:13:02 UTC  

How would you achieve a stateless society?

2019-04-30 16:13:07 UTC  

Communism according to Socialists can only be acheived once we hit enormous surplus via automation
