We have people arguing that the government should be given power over people's lives in more direct fashions and this is the kind of black mail the law has to implement to get the government agents to do their job in the first place.

@RekItRalph You aren't even arguing anything. Though you do do a good job of licking Google's Bootheels. What if I told you I know of a faction in Google looking to quietly suppress Sander's bid for the Presidency because the higher ups have an "in" with key figures in the establishment.

@Khanclansith Oh yes, Government largesse. That and corruption are the two biggest constants in government.

Right, That is why I brought up that topic.

Ever heard of Public Choice Economics? Interesting stuff. I'm actually thinking it should be applied to the private sector too.

Very interesting conclusions. Things like "voting doesn't work and people don't bother paying attention, so we should shrink the government so they learn about the stuff that they have to"

Sounds somewhat familiar I will look it up.

It's a very libertarian school. An attempt to apply economics to political science.

Was that tossed around by the Tea Party people?

So many words so few sources

Have you read Alfred's Book of Doom?

Free speech is kind of nice if you like fucking with neanderthals

I love how right wing publications make a bunch of autistic connections

No I haven't. I don't know if public choice was passed around the tea party. I wouldn't be surprised. I heard about it because there was a hit piece written a couple years ago on one of it's main figures.

Alfred had a section of Laws that nominally are still in effect in the UK, and according to the Book of Doom, no one in the UK is a citizen. The Clause Citizens bear arms while slaves are executed for having arms was latter brought into use in the US for the second amendment. The idea isn't unique to King Alfred's Book of Doom.

lol.

Also, does anyone miss the days when you could have a good conversation without lefty trolls interjecting and contradicting themselves every couple posts?

Queen just captures the note right in this case.

Found this the other day. This is kinda amusing.

The story of Mastadon and what happened when Japan found refuge on Mastodon for lolicon (it did not go over well).

Can’t wait til free speech allows us to use you guys as our Google fu punching bag

#freespeech

You say that. But a local Uni is looking to make rural students a protected class. Your anti-gun rhetoric is hatespeech, man.

Not sure what you’re talking about but you don’t even link bro

Do you even link bro

Source. Source. Source. [best done in a sea-lion accent]

Nah, I won't bring the wrath of your mobs on them. But things are happening.

What mobs lol?

You keep saying Free Speach, I don't think it means what you think it means

Yeah hit up the EFF then talk to me about free speech

Obvious Troll is Obvious. Did I ever tell you about my idea to make a new server? It fell through from lack of interest. But if you're interested, Khanclansmith...

Anyways, that mastodon story is amusing. The "tolerant left" is surprisingly intolerant when actually faced with another culture. It's doubly amusing when it leads to confusion with their normal opponents.

I think I have have a DM from you... I have been working on other projects lately

I got a shit load of servers running for testing purposes. Why are you special

I would say, do tell. But We got a troll on board. So maybe some other time or something.

I am heading to bed. Good night Pratel.

I think ya neanderthals have a better shot at talking about beating off

Night, Khan.

So what do you beat off to?

My Bitcoin account.

OK guys, how would you rate trump's new taxes
