Which is even more detail.

2019-07-22 09:55:46 UTC  

Ty

2019-07-22 09:57:19 UTC  

8Values is pretty good though. A lot better than the absolute joke that Political Compass is

2019-07-22 09:57:29 UTC  

It's...

2019-07-22 09:57:34 UTC  

More in depth.

2019-07-22 09:57:35 UTC  

And not so black and white.

2019-07-22 09:57:41 UTC  

But the 9 axes...

2019-07-22 09:57:42 UTC  

Oof.

2019-07-22 09:57:46 UTC  

That's even more detail.

2019-07-22 09:57:51 UTC  

219 Questions.

2019-07-22 09:57:57 UTC  

So if you really wanna get clear.

2019-07-22 09:58:00 UTC  
2019-07-22 09:58:01 UTC  

Go ahead.

2019-07-22 09:58:11 UTC  

There's a question of "the benefits of open borders would outweight the cost"

I'm like "sure". Then my slav ass realizes that the "closed border" opposite of the open border in this question is what I understand by open border <:pepelaugh:544857300179877898>

2019-07-22 09:58:27 UTC  

Fucking 'murican commies

2019-07-22 09:58:50 UTC  

Open borders means you can't really regulate who comes in and out. Easy to get couped.

2019-07-22 09:59:14 UTC  

I'd imagine 15 Million Russians just fly over.

2019-07-22 09:59:27 UTC  

i have talked to someone who genuinely thinks a flood of lower class people will make your country's current low class magically turn into middle class

2019-07-22 09:59:46 UTC  

If we were a racialist society, yes.

2019-07-22 10:00:14 UTC  

But that's not how it works anymore. The white man is equal and will be just as low as they were before, if not lower.

2019-07-22 10:00:35 UTC  

It seems whoever you spoke to, thinks like a racist from the 1960s.

2019-07-22 10:01:09 UTC  

we were referring to financial class like poor and middle class

2019-07-22 10:01:22 UTC  

though the same amount of stupidity i guess

2019-07-22 10:01:47 UTC  

Yeah I know but he's assuming foreigner lower class coming in would somehow raise either the citizen class there already.

2019-07-22 10:01:48 UTC  

@Ankelaos Yea, it's just over here, open borders kinda means "wow, you can cross the border and leave your country without getting shot at" <:smugon:512048583806025739>

2019-07-22 10:02:02 UTC  

And it's your army doing the shooting.

2019-07-22 10:02:07 UTC  

My army?

2019-07-22 10:02:10 UTC  

Yes

2019-07-22 10:02:12 UTC  

Where do you think I'm from?

2019-07-22 10:02:21 UTC  

No idea, is that relevant?

2019-07-22 10:02:28 UTC  

It seems to be with your assumptions.

2019-07-22 10:02:41 UTC  

We're not shooting Somali's or Frenchmen here.

2019-07-22 10:02:51 UTC  

We actually let them in. We just boot them out if they're illegal later.

2019-07-22 10:03:08 UTC  

Turns out I’m for social democracy

2019-07-22 10:03:10 UTC  

And believe me, I've seen enough to know they are not very common. The illegals that is.

2019-07-22 10:03:32 UTC  

The "your army" is not global, it pertains to the meaning of open borders for someone from a post-communist country, the theoretical construct placing you in a role of someone who would try and leave during communism

2019-07-22 10:03:44 UTC  

You just overthought an offhand pronoun, basically

2019-07-22 10:04:09 UTC  

I don’t think it’s right for economic view though

2019-07-22 10:04:16 UTC  

I’m very pro free market in the right industries

2019-07-22 10:04:20 UTC  

I mean... Berlin was getting deserted because of Communism.

2019-07-22 10:04:27 UTC  

They had to put a wall up, remember?
