Wild how even when they were going full-on gulags , their peak imprisonment rate didn't surpass the United States. And we've got plenty of bullets for those that run or resist arrest.

A car can not only belong to one person, but it can be operated by one person.

A key distinction I've heard is: whether a property has to be collectively operated or can it be individually operated?

One point in time does not constitute a robust conclusion. Consider any time before and how collectivism did yield considerable agriculture gains for the USSR. Like do we really think they fought WW2 with the same or less agricultural efficiency they had before their revolution?

Being responsible isn't an excuse to own other people's livelihood.

Gee, who decided what is legally equivalent? Certainly not the people with wealth to buy politicians and judges.

Damn good read. Thanks

So people don't vote because they are convinced it doesn't have an impact, and you're saying that's consent? Nah. Us not being on the streets is more akin to consent.

Maybe the country with the most imprisoned people per capita should not have that claim

Something about the demise of 3rd spaces (ie public parks) also plays a role. Just yesterday was told we couldn't have a library in our neighborhood because of lack of surface level parking.

Show me a billionaire that isn't motivated by greed. Seriously, I'll wait.

But honestly, how is it you can know the motivations of a protestor and most other people but not whether a billionaire is greedy?

Billionaires don't get jealous? I guess I meant greed.

Citation needed because last I checked California's gun death rate is lower than average.

I mean if we lived in a society where we could tax billionaires out of existence, then we could probably solve climate change with all that tax revenue.

Om nom nom

I think he means vote or die.

I doubt the action came out of “care”, more out of jealousy.

So they're acting like billionaires?

And do those states have fewer mass shootings?

Hell they'll even take ad money to promote Jan 6th conspiracies

What does Africa have to do with this, weren't the activists from Spain? 🧐

And Pol Pot got deposed by Vietnam after they kicked the US out. They really should get more credit...
