Because you asked what I meant. Of course what I meant didn’t include your response to it. You almost seem offended my thoughts weren’t yours.

If you think it’s insane it’s basically still how we took the Kingdom of Hawaii.

In short, Kant said people should be the goal, not the means.

It’s ok to make yourself dinner.

It’s ok to make your friend dinner because you want to make them happy.

It’s not ok to make your friend dinner because you want to have sex with them.

It’s not ok to make your friend make you dinner because you don’t want to cook.

Every facet of capitalism is exploitation by design as profit is unpaid labor. However classless socialism isn’t automatically devoid of exploitation.

None of us asked to be here. I certainly don’t want to be here anymore. Placing the value of a life upon the imaginary lines it landed between, how much money it’s parents had, or the color of it’s skin are all pretty fucked up.

Lol. Welcome to chasing a pipe dream or crippling depression.

The answer is largely as simple as socialism plus Kant with some secular Jesus because any system that condones human exploitation will eventually implode due to psychopaths’ willingness to sacrifice others for power.

But literally basically everything is done wrong to maximize exploitation. Housing, schooling, medicine, food… All fucked to make the richest richer.

Liberalism is the slow road to fascism.

WHY DID DEMOCRAT LEAVE LEAVES?! 🤬🔥🍁🍂

What I’m trying to figure out is if he says “short sighted” because he thinks it’s not intentionally crippling the US or because they don’t want people to know it’s intentional.

If America saw what America was doing to America…

Fairly non sequitur. You’re not wrong but people being coached to revel in hate from birth isn’t going to be addressed by encryption on your wank session.

Good luck overcoming 300 years propaganda.

Your average American reads at an 8th grade level and has spent their entire lives being told what to think but not how.

The majority are so ignorant they think even the concept of currency is capitalism.

America is failing as a country because people are willing to spend more energy on things they hate than things they need like functioning education and transit.

I work 4x10 wfh and I’m more productive than the people that go into the office despite spending no less than half the day playing videogames.

If the system had any legitimacy, Trump wouldn’t have been given office the first time due to violating both emoluments clauses much less allowed on the ballot the second time while being an impeached felon.

Even if you think the results of this election are legitimate (both Trump and Elon have as much as said they are not) the GOP has made no secret of P2025 or their goals of cracking down on blue states in future elections.

The slow road to fascism still leads to fascism. Democrats and Republicans are the gas pedal of imperialism. One pushes softly. One pushes hard. Before you argue consider the insanity of Greenland is basically exactly how we took Hawaii. Democrats are largely just good cop convincing you to fuck yourself over for the system. http://politicalcompass.org/uselection2016

Firstly, there are many reasons third parties aren’t possible but the largest is basically the Constitution mandating simple majority voting which naturally falls into a duopoly. A third party either cripples or replaces the one it’s closest to. CGPGrey can explain it further: https://www.cgpgrey.com/politics-in-the-animal-kingdom

Then you have to understand Democracy is a political system and capitalism is an economic one. In simplest terms, capitalism is a small group of capitalists that own the factories and get all the profit set opposite a large group of workers that sell their lives an hour at a time. The US has a legal fiduciary duty to shareholders which basically means profit must always be maximized. This is the constant pressure on wages to stay down and prices to go up. That doesn’t sound inherently terrible until you read into SEC EDGAR filings and find out that the overwhelming majority of every privately traded company is basically owned by BlackRock and cellar boxing has been used to rob American pensions and cripple American businesses including cancer treatments. https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/owpfc3/will_the_real_gme_bbemg_please_stand_up_part_1/

A democracy relies upon educated, competent citizens. Educated, competent citizens think critically, get engaged in politics, want clean water, safe working conditions, and well paying jobs. All of those hurt profits. What more people need to understand is capitalism will always have an intrinsic need to undermine democracy.

What’s more, democracy undermines democracy when it’s a representative republic wherein only the wealthy can run for office on platforms approved by the wealthy. The DNC and RNC are both privately owned corporations that say who can run on that ballot. All the talk of term limits is further myopic, ignorant self sabotage as there is only a shortage of competent, principled people willing to spend their life in public service. There is no shortage of amoral self serving opportunists for corporations to push through election after election. Eventually you just lose the institutional memory of all the competent individuals.

We’re supposedly a nation of the people, by the people, for the people, but once Corporations became people, they became the only people that mattered. 75% of theft is corporate wage theft but you can’t arrest corporations because they don’t have hands.

This is without factoring in the decades conservatives have spent filling government with end of days dominionists and out right fascists.

This “blue no matter who” bullshit is a different flavor of “lesser evil” that got us here because you can’t fix a system when it’s working exactly as intended. The founding fathers never wanted Joe Everyman voting because they knew he was a fucking moron. Voting was limited to land owning gentry because they were wealthy enough to not have to work and were able to learn.

All of our failing points are intentional. They don’t want smarter people. They don’t want more people voting. They want servile minions.

Isn’t this just autism? Painfully literally and devoid of social interferences?

This is a good question but you’re going to get a wild range of information because of a number of factors.

That number is a good starting point but it’s likely low especially if you’re physically active or using a vegan/vegetarian source.

Also, something one must keep in mind is that the vast majority of research in the field is built on the fundamental assumption carbs should be the largest part of the diet which is likely wrong as the body seems to run better the less sugar you give it.

A huge percentage of the problem is what people think is left.

Hilary was right of Trump, just less authoritarian. The whole caravan spectacle was basically fallout of her time as secretary of state under Obama.

Liberalism coopted equality from socialism. Rainbow capitalism will underpay and shrinkflate all the poors equally in the name of the shareholders.

Conservatism coopted a man being entitled to the sweat of his brow. Profit is what’s left over after reinvesting in the business and wages. Every cut corner of quality and penny of retirement savings denied is more riches for the ruling class. Workers eagerly defend their bosses entitlement to the sweat of their brow.

Media plays the masses that deserve both against itself.

This is as close to factual reporting as we’re likely to see for a minute. This isn’t satire; it’s sociopolitical commentary.
