When you can turn to the local gang for protection, does the state really exist?

I guess it depends on the exact situation
@everyone merry christmas eve everybody, hope santa treats you guys well this year
uwu
santa, god of consumerism
bless us for our moral deeds
Lmao
Kneel before the Free market God, denounce German Santa-Claus.
the real santa was invented by coca-cola
Marx is reverse Santa. Gifting himself your private property.
never refer to marx in my presence ever again
Ah the two extremes when It comes to gift re distribution
Santa which is a representation of consequentialist/trickle up/feudalist austrian economics based on good behaviour/favouritism that displaces everyone that doesnt do moral deeds of behalf of modernism, rationalist scientism and materialism + the neoconservative, reductionist culture of excess and decadence among the middle class
And then you have robin hood/marx which purports to make up for all the short comings of austrian economics, but the W O K E culture of victimization and self hatred ™️ are all exhausted from working the post neofeudalist Austrian hamster wheel of debt and death ™️ and too busy on their phones at starbucks to give any sort of meaning to their cause so when they do eventually end up rebelling (when they can be bothered to anyways) they all become accustomed to a even more materalistic lifestyle and then get a shit tier work ethic and as a result which then means they disporportionately dont/cant make food and they all starve but not before the post feudalist Austrian plantation of debt and death ™️ does another neo feudalism with the remaining stragglers thus repeating the same process all over again
~~Tl:dr we live in a fallen world and theres no existential salvation outside of jesus to atone for the human condition and by extension fleshly inequities~~ but ye that bout sums it up
Also fun fact credit card debt goes through the ceiling in january so @💲 Derpy Ⓐ youse right about the "moral deeds" so to speak 😂
@ThatPreciseBloke in the original robin hood, he steals from the tax collector, not the rich
and good thing i only use cash
communists unironically think their ideology is like Santa
“we all just get free shit and it hurts no one”
@💲 Derpy Ⓐ this is why context matters
here I was thinking robin hoods a dirty commie when in reality hes one of us A N T I C O M S

>>> But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment; whoever insults his brother will be liable to the council; and whoever says, ‘You fool!’ will be liable to the hell of fire.

Fug. I think I've done that.
@halfthink dont worry im more than guilty myself
>>> Let me begin by discussing two possible meanings of the term conservative. The first meaning is to refer to someone as conservative who generally supports the status quo; that is, a person who wants to conserve whatever laws, rules, regulations, moral and behavioral codes happen to exist at any given point in time.
Because different laws, rules, and political institutions are in place at different times and/or different locations, what a conservative supports depends on and changes with place. and time. To be a conservative means nothing specific at all except to like the existing order, whatever that may be.
The first meaning can be discarded, then. The term conservative must have a different meaning. What it means, and possibly only can mean, is this: Conservative refers to someone who believes in the existence of a natural order, a natural state of affairs which corresponds to the nature of things: of nature and man. This natural order is and can be disturbed by accidents and anomalies: by earthquakes and hurricanes, diseases, pests, monsters and beasts, by two-headed horses or four-legged humans, cripples and idiots, and by war, conquest and tyranny. But it is not difficult to distinguish the normal from the anomaly, the essential from the accidental. A little bit of abstraction removes all the clutter and enables nearly everyone to "see" what is and what is not natural and in accordance with the nature of things. Moreover, the natural is at the same time the most enduring state of affairs. The natural order is ancient and forever the same (only anomalies and accidents undergo change), hence, it can be recognized by us everywhere and at all times.
