It says the government should really pay for it, but if the government just comes by, gives you money, and takes your house when you didn't want to sell, is that really a valid transaction?

2018-12-18 19:46:56 UTC  

no, that is IN the bill of rights.

2018-12-18 19:47:07 UTC  

"just compensation" which is very vague

2018-12-18 19:47:10 UTC  

eminent domain

2018-12-18 19:47:18 UTC  

yes, very vague.

2018-12-18 19:47:34 UTC  

and OC who decides what "just" or "unjust" means? the govt

2018-12-18 19:48:10 UTC  

technically the courts, which you could say are part of the government but at the same time not.

2018-12-18 19:48:27 UTC  

depending on the judge and the case

2018-12-18 19:48:32 UTC  

they *are*, just not the part that comes to take your stuff

2018-12-18 19:48:46 UTC  

which makes commies angry

2018-12-18 19:48:58 UTC  

can you tell I've been burned recently?

2018-12-18 19:52:07 UTC  

lol

2018-12-18 20:47:24 UTC  

kinda sick and tired of my interest group's political demographic. I need better friends

2018-12-18 21:12:21 UTC  

This is why I like living in a rural area, and going to a college that is almost 50/50 on political stances. I get the best and worst of both worlds.

2018-12-18 21:13:25 UTC  

oh, my college is fine. I just work with musicians every day, and musicians are always broke and communist

2018-12-18 21:13:41 UTC  

(a bit of hyperbole, but still)

2018-12-18 21:14:16 UTC  

I love getting into debates with my left wing freinds, let's me see just how uninformed they really are.

2018-12-18 21:14:52 UTC  

that's dangerous, IMO, because some left wingers are VERY informed, they just have a different fundamental understanding of society than we do

2018-12-18 21:14:59 UTC  

we don't want to echo chamber ourselves

2018-12-18 21:15:50 UTC  

Oh I know, the only ones that actually are informed around me though are the professors. As long as they are not downright commie clowns. They give me the best debates and discussions.

2018-12-18 21:16:32 UTC  

My friends on the other hand are not informed for the most part, they see Vox and Buzzfeed article headlines and regurgitate the same points I hear all the time on Twitter.

2018-12-18 21:17:24 UTC  

I try to not live in an echo chamber, which is why I watch Tim haha.

2018-12-18 21:18:30 UTC  

Tim is as far left as I go.

2018-12-18 21:18:49 UTC  

Besides talking to random people on Discord.

2018-12-18 21:19:05 UTC  

So I can kind of say I'm not in a bubble.

2018-12-18 21:19:21 UTC  

I'm in a communist echo chamber of my own free will, but it's deafening to sit and listen to

2018-12-18 21:19:59 UTC  

Well, I am a Northern Republican AKA a Rockefeller Republican. So I do hold some values that could be considered left wing. But I am slowly slowly renouncing a lot of leftist values just because of how out of touch a lot of them are.

2018-12-18 21:21:47 UTC  

Lets brainstorm from TIms' newest video. How does the right fight back against all the attacks on funding from the Left wing lunatics that are the vocal semi-minority?

2018-12-18 21:22:21 UTC  

Making our own independent platforms.

2018-12-18 21:22:36 UTC  

Or will this escalate into something that is just inevitable?

2018-12-18 21:22:38 UTC  

enter into individual negotiations with possible sponsors and using the power of the individual to regain control of society

2018-12-18 21:23:19 UTC  

The answer is to use the same tactic as the left does

2018-12-18 21:23:39 UTC  

Force the companies to realize that their actions have negative consequences via pr mobs

2018-12-18 21:23:45 UTC  

How does the right enter into individual negotiations when most of the people who are becomming unsupportive of right wing values and ideas are corporations? Something us on the right want to protect?

2018-12-18 21:24:18 UTC  

The right uses purchase power rather than direct activism.

2018-12-18 21:24:31 UTC  

large corporations are anti-market and socialist anyway

2018-12-18 21:24:49 UTC  

Agreed, we can see that with the stocks of gaming companies who are bowing to leftist demands.

2018-12-18 21:25:23 UTC  

the invisible hand of the market may seem like a joke, but that's because we've let monopolies and oligopolies rise up, giving credence to the left's ideologies

2018-12-18 21:25:39 UTC  

the less competition, the less powerful "the hand of god"

2018-12-18 21:25:39 UTC  

The left hurts your image but the right hurts your pockets.

2018-12-18 21:26:32 UTC  

So then would government intervention into the markets be a good thing? Or would the right have to "rise up" to the level that would hurt these monopolies and oligopolies?
