This analogy is so true!

[Collective Systems]

Nay, remember equality of outcome...

You haven't listened to a word of what we said, have you?

[New Amerik]

Except that it's Equality of Distribution, not Equality of Outcome....

Hell, I disagree with Communism in RL and even I support the people you're arguing against!

[Eternal Yerushalayim]

Nay, remember equality of outcome...

You haven't listened to a word of what we said, have you?

I mean that your beliefs conflict with another leftist belief called equality of outcome.

I'm fairly sure that Eternal Yerushalayim is simply a chat bot. None of his replies show any understanding of what he reads.

Equality of distribution usually leads to equality of outcome with Progressive taxation.

I'm done... no, no more. I'm done for good.

Hmm. I see that Martaz hasn't reappeared to respond to me yet...

Am I insane or is this conversation incoherent?

Both?

The goal of socialism is communism.

Wrong. There are probably forms of socialism where that is the case, but it is not true of all forms.

"A stateless society is not a chaotic society. An anarchistic society is a chaotic society."

No, anarchy doesn't imply chaos. It merely implies a lack of rulers or hierarchy (hence, "an-archy" -- "no-rulers"). The anarchist FAQ is a good place to start if you want to learn more about it.

I know... I'm supposed to be a cold-hearted right-wing Libertarian bastard, and I've been arguing for socialism and communism for 12 pages, dammit!

[Collective Systems]

I quoted a quote.

You earn $100 a month. I'll take $90 from you.
You earn $20 a month. I'll take $10 from you. I'll give both of you the same amount of services, because of my belief in equality of distribution. And the result IS equality of outcome.

[New Amerik]

I'll leave, but one more thing:

Eternal Yerushalayim's national animal is the Lamb, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation

Might want to stop bulldozing down your natural enviroment, eh?

A commie said that.

[Collective Systems]

How about we all leave and let him soak in his misguided bliss until he falls in the revolution. Who's going to be there to save you when it's over, eh?

[Eternal Yerushalayim]

I'll leave, but one more thing:

What? Well, I don't know what I chose, at night(at least in SG).

[New Kereptica]

A commie said that.

Are they supposed to be infallible?

[Eternal Yerushalayim]

I wouldn't agree to the "revolution" even if you slaughter me.

[Eternal Yerushalayim]

A commie said that.

Are they supposed to be infallible?

No, so you can stop quoting Reagan and saying conservatives are selfish based on that.

[Collective Systems]

It's not a physical revolution.

[The Tofu Islands]

A commie said that.

Yeah, but I think at least two commies in this thread said otherwise.


Plus, whichever commie said that was probably not speaking for all communists, nor for all socialists. So I fail to see how it matters.

Luckily, the revolution does not require your agreement.

[New Amerik]

Hey, as long as he's a productive worker, I'LL let him join the revolution!

joking, joking...

[Nobel Hobos]

P.S You know me. i'm Eternal Life with God.

Are you a human ?

[New Kereptica]

A commie said that.

Are they supposed to be infallible?

No, so you can stop quoting Reagan and saying conservatives are selfish based on that.

A rebuttal in two parts:

I've done that?

and

You admit that Regan is wrong?

[Natapoc]

A commie said that.

Yeah, but I think at least two commies in this thread said otherwise.

Which commies said that in this thread?

[Balavoria]

why is it getting so deep into this?

i think it's a great analogy. Socialists are people who distribute evenly (or want to). Capitalists work for what they gain and they keep what they earn.

i could go into the human nature factor but i don't think it's very relevant.
