You can see that's obviously false because families exist, wherein the ideal society functions well

2018-10-30 18:40:07 UTC  

isnt Socialism just the Industrial Factory as the State?

2018-10-30 18:40:42 UTC  

the problem becomes when its mister 30 cal magazine clip deciding what is safe with a gun

2018-10-30 18:40:43 UTC  

Within a family all members have responsibility for each other, even though some members are incompetent or unable or whatever

2018-10-30 18:40:43 UTC  

Members within families are not always able to be responsible for themselves. However people within the family unit adopt responsibility over each other willingly.

2018-10-30 18:41:01 UTC  

Exactly, and the ideal social structure extends it to all of society

2018-10-30 18:41:07 UTC  

There is a key word here that you are not understanding. "Consent." This unit exists willingly.

2018-10-30 18:41:07 UTC  

you assume all families are functional

2018-10-30 18:41:09 UTC  

But the difference between a family and overall society is that you cant know 1 billion people personnally

2018-10-30 18:41:27 UTC  

@Grenade123 thats my point though, these people know nothing about guns and were never asked to know anything about them

2018-10-30 18:41:44 UTC  

You can not expand that ideal social structure without either including consent or losing the ideal factor.

2018-10-30 18:41:53 UTC  

if you take families as a whole, there is a significant potion that don't function. if you expand that to all of society, then you have that potion of society not functioning correctly

2018-10-30 18:42:16 UTC  

at which point, you basically have today's society

2018-10-30 18:42:20 UTC  

Well... for example, I didn't explicitly consent to being a part of my family, and my parents didn't really consent to having me be a part of it.

2018-10-30 18:42:37 UTC  

We simply participate in the family structure as an implicit act.

2018-10-30 18:42:47 UTC  

not everyone does

2018-10-30 18:42:51 UTC  

They willingly help you and accept responsibility for you. If they didn't you would be on the street.

2018-10-30 18:42:58 UTC  

Many people are kicked out of many families.

2018-10-30 18:43:03 UTC  

^

2018-10-30 18:43:27 UTC  

For example, I know a single mother who's son was violent and beat her. Under this system she was able to willingly sever her responsibility over her own son.

2018-10-30 18:43:28 UTC  

your parents consent to you being part of your family by giving birth to or adopting you

2018-10-30 18:43:40 UTC  

and not aborting you

2018-10-30 18:43:43 UTC  

there are so many outs for parenthood it's not even funny

2018-10-30 18:44:04 UTC  

Anyways, yeah, Marxism argues that everybody should willingly compassionately give their labour to others.

2018-10-30 18:44:16 UTC  

how is it compassion when you've forced it?

2018-10-30 18:44:19 UTC  

"willingly"

2018-10-30 18:44:26 UTC  

@Beemann Who said anything about force?

2018-10-30 18:44:28 UTC  

It's not willing if you demand it.

2018-10-30 18:44:34 UTC  

Who said anything about demand?

2018-10-30 18:44:41 UTC  

You did in your own words.

2018-10-30 18:44:43 UTC  

marxism advocates the use of force to bring about a marxist system

2018-10-30 18:44:51 UTC  

@>_ Quote me?

2018-10-30 18:45:14 UTC  

@xmrsmoothx My only concern is that some people wont willingly give their labor away

2018-10-30 18:45:22 UTC  

@Beemann "the use of force to bring about X system" is not the same as "the use of force as an intrinsic part of X system"

2018-10-30 18:45:22 UTC  

"Absolutely yes, and marxism definitely advocates for force."

2018-10-30 18:45:33 UTC  

I will gladly.

2018-10-30 18:45:39 UTC  

so how would you fix that

2018-10-30 18:45:52 UTC  

Damn, who can post pictures in here?

2018-10-30 18:46:02 UTC  

@>_ Just copy the text

2018-10-30 18:46:02 UTC  

how do you enforce compassionate, willing sharing when you enforced the system in the first place through violence?

2018-10-30 18:46:10 UTC  

Alright
