  • When you voluntarily engage in extremist rhetoric, society should watch you so that you don’t have the opportunity to do the things that you, personally, say that you want to do to woman and children. Keeping an eye on your dumbass, because of your very own actions, is in no way jailing you.

  • It’s pretty easy to downvote and move on. Hexbear actually approves of this as you’re giving your downvotes according to your ability, to them according to their special needs.

  • What is this bullshit? Trumps status as a criminal defendant could distract him “if he wins the presidency?” Get the fuck out of here.

    Trumps trials should be resolved before Election Day. And his conviction should disqualify him from office, even if his deplorables manage to successfully rig the election for him this time.

    This author is a fucking clown.

  • If you want to propose that the US should have better healthcare and other social safety nets, you’ll get no argument from me. If you’d like to propose that the wealthiest should pay for these things via taxes (or other lawful disincentives), I’ll agree with that too.

    But depending on how left or right you consider yourself then a significantly reduced, government sponsored, retirement age is a more complicated question. Someone on the right might tell you that an earlier retirement is a reward for the effort and ingenuity you expended through your life. Likewise, someone on the left might argue that you have a responsibility to be a productive member of society for as long as you are able. Even moreso if you are particularly talented. I, personally, believe that there is plenty of room for diversity of outcome without compromising equality of opportunity.

    My only point in my first couple comments was more than a decade of government retirement is not only possible but also likely for anyone in the US that makes it through their heart-attack years in their 50s, and that retirement earlier than that is possible based on education, career, choices, and luck. As illustrated by the fact that just over 50% of the US population is retired at 55. Everything after that was just antagonizing a troll. Which I find hilarious. YMMV.

  • You should have stuck with the links. Those are at least interesting. But throwing a sad, foot-stomping, hissy at being correctly identified as a tankie troll is just sad. The best trolls are either completely over-the-top or much more subtle about it.

    Anyway, best of luck in your future trolling endeavors!

  • You’re giving the above commenter WAY to much credit. A very brief review of their post history will quickly conclude that the above commenter is a troll who deserves to be, and rightfully should to be, responded to in kind. Moreover, in a media predicted on written communication it’s the responsibility of said troll to state their case clearly. If they fail to do so, they should be a better troll.

  • Did you expect that younger generations would just inherit all their wealth? I’d have thought that this kind of landed gentry outlook wouldn’t be what a tankie like yourself would promote. Instead, due to the linear nature of time, young people of every country in every stage of human history generally have less wealth than their elders. Because they’ve had less time to accumulate it. What part of that are you struggling with?

  • If you want the government to pay for your “retirement” then the retirement age is 66. But you can retire literally whenever you want as soon as you have the resources. Which might be in your late 40s or early 50s depending on education, career, and personal goals.

    Also keep in mind that “life expectancy” is an average that is reduced by men that die from car accidents, strokes, and whatever else much earlier than 66. The life expectancy of a 60 year old male in the US is 80.
