with time ofc
I dont understand whats being argued
In what way are you asserting that they're similar
no hes just jerking me off
yeah philosophically they are similar
```@Stefan Payne the best type of aid is ideas```
Exactly! And the people need to want the idas and changes. And I don't really see that in Africa...
Just a thing to think about:
In the 1950 the GDP of Kenya was superior to that of (South) Korea.
Today South Korea is far superior to Kenya. Why is that? The only conclusion is that it is because of the people., And that is a "Resource" that is grossly underestimated.
@Stefan Payne the closer people get to reason the more they prosper
look the west once we took Aristotles rational egoism and laws of logic
```Far-right and the far-left are the same```
The ideas are different, the outcome and forms of gouvernment are the same.
Just look at the Institutions of Nazi Germany and the Communist East Germany. You'll find many similaritys. And the commies had not less deaths due to the gouvernment than the Nazis, just the cause was different.
BUT: The holodomor was IMO more evil than the working camps of Nazi Germany.
Just imagine that you'll be shot because you eat grains that you collected, while already starving. Is there anything more evil than shooting a starving person that is trying his/her best to survive??
communism is just more altruisitic
anything anyone does for their benefit is evil
a man robbing a bank and a millionaire are both as evil in their eyes
Ah yes, being forced to share is altruistic
@Blackhawk342 the only reasons they are being forced to share is because of the prevalent philosophy
personally nazis are more individualistic but that quickly changes with time
@Blackhawk342 living for others is evil
@Stefan Payne look at china as soon as it started to embrace western values its quality of life raised from people starving all the time to what it is now
its not perfect of course
sargon is retarded change my mind
>prove a negative
@Blackhawk342 hes extremely inconsistent and hops between individualism and collectivism whenever he is challenged
he also calls for government regulation when he says he wants property rights to be protected
>collectivism
When?
>government regulation
Government's purpose is to protect private property
@Beemann no he called for regulating facebook
let me find the video again
no need i know he did
That's because people feel social media is becoming an Oligopoly
The social media isnt the issue
I disagree with their line of reasoning, but that doesn't make it stupid
there are already alternatives growing
@Beemann its till inconsistent
freedom of association of your property trumps speech
Anti trust laws are not outside the purview of classical liberalism
the real problem is the backbone behind the internet, payment processors and infrastructure coming after new platforms.
politics gey
political ideologies are really vague
you can make your own sites, but you cant just make your own infrastructure
imagine cable coming into your house
what do you mean by infrastructure
"Here is the PC line"
If you want a good understanding of Sargon's positions, without this becoming a giant discussion, read some Hayek
