What have you learned today? P2

[Khanatah]

That some people are cynical enough to admit they just don't have an ounce of consideration for others, especially when they are gaining from the people they let be abused.

You say cynical like it is a bad thing...

^ only learnt that today?!?!?

oops the two above.

Itself it's not a bad thing.

The way it is used to foster ignorance sometimes upsets me.

You see a system of wrongs. Do you fight against it or bend over?

I fight it, but I actually fight it, like lawsuits, protest, boycotts. I don't do passive-aggressive bullshit that only a prepubescent child would do.

I do those things too.

Merely one of the tools in your disposal.

Lawsuits, protests, boycotts... Don't do much alone.

Hey, As long as you're not lighting yourself on fire in front of the capitol building Zeno's okay with it.

Just because you have the option of using the tools doesn't mean you should. You have to use the tool that is appropriate for the job. Stealing hurts more than just the corporations, it also hurts the consumer because the corporations then will raise prices to make up the loss of revenue of stolen items.

I think Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., The Hippies, Gandhi, and that monk who set himself on fire, would disagree with the bolded.

Nope.

That's why you use lawsuits, protests, and boycotts together. Doing illegal things just delegitimizes your entire cause and ruins your public face.

Ultimately I could care less about the prices. Since I'm for tearing every corporation down anyway, I don't care for their welfare. I don't think consumers should be targeted, but I won't refrain from blasting at a corporation just because as usual they pass the buck to others. That amounts to a threat to me.

I think every tool should be considered open for use, including outright violence when the time comes. I mean, I doubt Wal-Mart will be pleased when their buildings are re-purposed.

Stealing a product forces the corporation to pay for it. Often a few stolen products won't be enough for them to raise the prices (I thought supply and demand decided prices?) and as such the workers get off unharmed because of their wage salary, the manufacturer is unharmed because he's already been paid, and the consumer is unharmed because an entire product has been removed from the market.

Then you'd be wrong because you haven't got a clue about Dr. King.

[Khanatah]

What have lawsuits, peaceful protests, and boycotts done so far?

Zactly!

Indeed. King and Gandhi partially succeeded because the people opposing them were assholes. And the monk who set himself on fire was only a catalyst in a plot that involved the CIA, ARVN, and US Gov't.

Are you implying he stole something? That's racist.

Stealing a product forces the corporation to pay for it. Often a few stolen products won't be enough for them to raise the rices (I thought supply and demand decided prices?) and as such the workers get off unharmed because of their wage salary, the manufacturer is unharmed because he's already been paid, and the consumer is unharmed because an entire product has been removed from the market.

But see, you're stealing the product from someone who already bought it legally. It don't matter what your cause is. It's still hypocritical. Do you really not see the hypocrisy? This makes you even worse than the corporation you're stealing from.

I learned that Big John's chips aren't half as bad as they sound. A slight taste of raw fish at the end, but that's just the extra seaside touch...
