Progressives are likely closer to the NatSoc than commie TBQH.

2020-01-12 00:32:55 UTC  

that doesnt matter to me really

2020-01-12 00:33:00 UTC  

@Jym I mean it in terms of philosophy not death count

2020-01-12 00:33:06 UTC  

its all communism and should be cleansed in a holy fire

Old School Communists should be kept around

2020-01-12 00:33:41 UTC  

It's just the modern ones that are the problem

2020-01-12 00:33:47 UTC  

i mean i dnt think it should illegal to have an ideology

2020-01-12 00:33:52 UTC  

but i mean ideally they wouldnt hold power

2020-01-12 00:34:06 UTC  

like for example the commies at CNN that spread misleading info

2020-01-12 00:34:12 UTC  

to millions

2020-01-12 00:34:24 UTC  

in a sane society that place would be shut down in some way.

2020-01-12 00:34:40 UTC  

I would consider the people at CNN to be modern progressives not Communists

2020-01-12 00:34:50 UTC  

thats where we disagree

2020-01-12 00:34:55 UTC  

then

2020-01-12 00:35:00 UTC  

@The Electric Lizard

So you can separate a philosophy from it's outcomes? I mean, "it's a better philosophy it just happens to kill more people." I'm no philosopher but if that is how it works I am happy to have nothing to do with it.

2020-01-12 00:35:04 UTC  

They aren't exactly for any communist policies like democratising the workplace

2020-01-12 00:35:18 UTC  

dont care

2020-01-12 00:35:22 UTC  

its all communism to me

2020-01-12 00:35:22 UTC  

But they do campaign for Modern Progressive policies like the transgenderism stuff

2020-01-12 00:36:20 UTC  

@Jym I consider the death count of a philosophy to be of little importance given that pretty much every philosophy has got someone killed at some point

2020-01-12 00:36:33 UTC  

id even consider perhaps that even just women being aloud to vote is communism

2020-01-12 00:36:34 UTC  

Just depends on how you count it up

2020-01-12 00:36:47 UTC  

I'm sure the Communists would argue that Capitalism has killed more

2020-01-12 00:37:03 UTC  

@UnScottable How is that communist?

2020-01-12 00:37:05 UTC  

<:pepelaugh:544857300179877898>

2020-01-12 00:37:10 UTC  

Even slightly?

2020-01-12 00:37:13 UTC  

AHAHA AHAHA HAHAHA

2020-01-12 00:37:16 UTC  

it is

@The Electric Lizard

Sure technically there is an LD50 for water. There is also a LD50 for turpentine. This hardly leads me to think that drinking turpentine is a good idea.

2020-01-12 00:39:59 UTC  

this guys french

2020-01-12 00:40:03 UTC  

or something

2020-01-12 00:40:06 UTC  

TEB

2020-01-12 00:40:54 UTC  

@Jym That's a completely different scenario

2020-01-12 00:41:40 UTC  

My point is that we should look at a philosophy based on it's ideas not based on death count

2020-01-12 00:41:49 UTC  

@The Electric Lizard

Like I said I'm no philosopher. Perhaps you can explain how, philosophically, the more murderous ideology is 'better'.

2020-01-12 00:42:08 UTC  

Capitalism has got many people killed so should we completely ignore it despite it working quite well?

2020-01-12 00:42:27 UTC  

progressivism is generally just left liberalism on a religious level

2020-01-12 00:42:27 UTC  

Or should we look at the philosophy itself and ignore death count?
