That’s why I said we have judges for a reason^
Hey, now you're getting it
But this isn't equality. This is just 'fair justice'
I said it around 3:07, it’s just we are speaking different languages but I don’t think we disagree fundamentally
I don't think you know the history and intellectual endpoint of the words you're using
What you get is rich politicians and actors can get away with the worse crimes while Normal people get decades in prison for owning weed
I understand them which is why I refer to the left owning them
@SomeUser27 You're using the wrong language my good sir
They have influence in Marxist ideas
I’m well aware
I wouldn't be arguing with you, if I didn't see you don't understand a lot of this
I hate Marxism though
It’s the witch doctor of ideology
It sees a problem and saws off your arm
That... doesn't even begin to make sense or be close to accurate
Well think about it this way, Marxism came about during or after the gilded age when there was actual problems for workers. And Marxism saw a issue and just make a authoritarian and massively idiotic system that ignored the human condition, that being said it’s not really relevant as capitalism has solved many of the issues
Marxism is the dietologist<:pepe_smug:560207654207750154>
Focusing on Marx is like focusing on the fact the Nazis had guns
@Fitzydog `By its very nature, treating people different based on GROUP (which is what you just said) is bad
`
that's untrue though
Not really, we have to address the issues (not the equity or equality of outcome). Like during the gilded age you were fucked if you were hurt as a worker and workers were abused if they had unions.
But capitalism ironed it out over time
like, if you're an anti terrorism man looking for bombs at airport
you would be wasting your time if you checked 70 year old jewish women
vs 25 year old arabic men
@SomeUser27 The very people you call 'Marxists' don't even follow that ideology anymore.
Hell, the main intellectual heavyweight of the Left debated Jordan Peterson about Marxism, and they *agreed* on quite a bit
Well at the end of the day it’s kind of like labels in general, people interpret things differently and misuse labels. I’m used to arguing with my professors for example so I usually use their language and I’ve been exposed to it as I’ve had a certain amount of distain for collectivists or equality of outcome
It’s kind of like how you have “liberals” who don’t believe in liberal values
@Fitzydog go to sleep faggot
@SomeUser27 You'd probably be better off learning this from YouTube than professors at this point
Youtube is my learning platform tbh, I don’t even watch TV anymore
And I argue with my professors because I disagree with them a lot especially the English department
TV? I haven't heard that name in years
You're consistently like... 80% on target about a lot of targets lmao
the other 20% confuses the hell out of me
@galesteppes fuck off
I don't work for another 2.5wks
Well that’s the thing, like maybe I’ve been poisoned by the words of the left, but I think understanding it so you can use it against them can be beneficial. It’s kind of like the quote from Plato where you have to understand why you don’t agree with the ideas to argue against it
Well yeah, I think most of us here do that
(I’m more a centrist with liberal values but, I might be libertarian in I want a small accountable gov)
They are their own worst enemy
Just say the shit they say to you back at them
Destroyed
