LWDT 8: Hitting the Marx

[Kowani]

Don’t you mean Marianne Williamson

Literally who

Anti-vaccine new Age bullshitter.

“Dark Psychic Forces.”

General economic trends would put billionaires as a drain rather than a benefit.


No. No I don’t.

BUT MUH JOB CREATORS

It’s such a bad argument, and yet it persists.

[Kowani]

General economic trends would put billionaires as a drain rather than a benefit.


No. No I don’t.

The Orb Mother is greatly displeased with your lack of high-energy chakra.

I don’t believe in Chakras.

[Sangamonia]

Bernie is, in my opinion, the best candidate we have.

Billionaires should not exist.

*watches as my city’s economy immediately collapses*

Not trying to be disingenuous/snarky, but why call yourself a socialist if you don't support wealth redistribution?

I do support it, it should just be gradual and procedular, and not all at once.

I approve of your sig.

My Skepticism Shield shall save me.

I do support it, it should just be gradual and procedular, and not all at once.

So just via progressive taxation then? To clarify, if it was done gradually, would you agree that billionaires shouldn't exist?

Did you even read the actual bill?

You're saying there's a spinning, energy distributing wheel in my [REDACTED]?

You fool, skepticism only strengthens the Orb Mother's chakra! We're all doomed!

But tautological, né?

Yes. Split up big corporations while we’re at it. Antitrust violations everywhere.

Did you even read the actual bill?

Yeah, just reread the article. Apparently I interpreted something wrong, it makes sense now.

Fair.

[United Muscovite Nations]

Absolutely wild this thread's gone four days straight without a post.

That said, this rhetoric's got me hyped as fuck.

I would have posted more, but I've been really busy with school and personal stuff.

do left-wingers sit on the left side of planes

[Crysuko]

It's a major bugbear of mine wine Americans point at liberals and endlessly screech about THR FAR LEFT THE FAR LEFT THE FAR LEFT with all the dignity of chicken little screwing with the town.

[Dumb Ideologies]

do left-wingers sit on the left side of planes

If you find me going abroad I'd be less concerned about what side of the plane I'm on and more about how to signal for help and escape this clear hostage situation.

[Evil Dictators Happyland]

do left-wingers sit on the left side of planes

I don't care that much as long as I'm in a plane and not a helicopter.

[Free Santa Rosa]

Breadtube is stupid, though? What America calls "left-wing" is very much "liberal reformist".

Acknowledge pls

Largely, I agree - but certain channels, e.g. BadMouse and even Philosophy Tube are often explicitly communist, and while both are British I suspect their primary audience is American.

It's a very moderate left wing but it is in fact left wing.
That being said, the only reason it's considered left wing is because a significant percentage of the right wing is literal Nazis, and most of the ones who aren't prefer the Nazis to anyone left of center (even considering the fact that the center in America is considerably further right than it is in most of the First World).

Well, if we put it that way, iirc ThoughtSlime has a lot of an-com views. I still can't think of a proper communist/socialist channel.

There is one channel I will gladly die for: Jreg.
