eminent domain
yes, very vague.
and OC who decides what "just" or "unjust" means? the govt
technically the courts, which you could say are part of the government but at the same time not.
depending on the judge and the case
they *are*, just not the part that comes to take your stuff
which makes commies angry
can you tell I've been burned recently?
lol
kinda sick and tired of my interest group's political demographic. I need better friends
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.
oh, my college is fine. I just work with musicians every day, and musicians are always broke and communist
(a bit of hyperbole, but still)
I love getting into debates with my left wing freinds, let's me see just how uninformed they really are.
that's dangerous, IMO, because some left wingers are VERY informed, they just have a different fundamental understanding of society than we do
we don't want to echo chamber ourselves
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.
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.
I try to not live in an echo chamber, which is why I watch Tim haha.
Tim is as far left as I go.
So I can kind of say I'm not in a bubble.
I'm in a communist echo chamber of my own free will, but it's deafening to sit and listen to
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.
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?
Making our own independent platforms.
Or will this escalate into something that is just inevitable?
enter into individual negotiations with possible sponsors and using the power of the individual to regain control of society
The answer is to use the same tactic as the left does
Force the companies to realize that their actions have negative consequences via pr mobs
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?
The right uses purchase power rather than direct activism.
large corporations are anti-market and socialist anyway
Agreed, we can see that with the stocks of gaming companies who are bowing to leftist demands.
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
the less competition, the less powerful "the hand of god"
The left hurts your image but the right hurts your pockets.
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?
the left hurts those it claims to protect by patronizing and belittling them, the right doesn't care about anyone, so you can do what you want
On an individual level it would take immense pressure from a huge base in order to put a dent into these companies. All the while they will become more echo chambers of leftist ideologies. While government intervention would be faster, but in turn it is the government. So we know how that turns out.
I propose we 1. let government sponsored companies die and stop bailing them out, 2. federalize or locally legitimize utilities to be a basic right to humans rather than something passed around by large corporations under the pretense of competition, and 3. prevent unnecessary monopolization of goods
