Not if that person openly states their interest.

He could make the coolest cars on the planet ... and still ... fuck Elon Musk.

Ummmmm. People have been whipping up untracable guns for decades (at least).

Nonsense. Her family has more than enough money where higher taxes wouldn’t change her life perceptibly at all.

McCain is annoying as hell. I hope they replace her with Abby Huntsman.

I guess I don’t entirely understand because I never bothered to join Twitter in the first place ... but ... if a swarm of douches are bugging you, why not just log out for a few days and ignore them?

If the world was a peaceful place without factional conflict, all of this would be sort of moot. IMO, for communism on a grand scale to work would require an evolution of the human condition to an entirely different transcendent state. Thing is, as much as capitalist governments worked to destabilize communist ones…

I propose that if you want to call something a lie ... you should be able to prove that it’s a lie.

This is asinine.

Shorter: “Sure, governments taking action and reducing the plastic used by service corporations does measurably reduce the quantity of plastic going in to the oceans. BUT FUCK THAT! You people are stupid. Didn’t you know that there are BIGGER things we could be doing? Dipshits.”

You could just join Twitter.

If I had to just pop an answer off the top of my head, I’d have said space. But Patrick makes an almost unassailable case.

I agree entirely. If this is what the original comment had stated, I’d have just given them a star.

Uuuuuuh. You mean a coop grocer who accepts US currency and then places it in a bank account (or credit union) drawing interest via capitalist investment ... while using this currency to purchase power, communications and all other services from a capitalist mega-corporation ... and likely building equity in physical…

I feel you have lost track of why this discussion thread started. So to recap:

Is there actually a communist government remaining anywhere on the planet beyond N. Korea? Because, honestly, we have an amazingly long row left to hoe before we devolve from where we are now to somewhere that N. Korea could plausibly claim to be providing a better outcome for it’s citizens.

OK. Now we’re into that whole debating the properties of unicorns thing. I am unaware of any system to emerge that has successfully created a “society where personal greed isn’t valued”. More to the point, the world has never seen a system where personal greed was not, ultimately, the prevailing force dictating the…

Well, if we wanted to avoid discussing the nuance of unicorns, it would probably make sense to limit the scope to systems that have really manifest within a reasonably modern time frame.

Technically, if someone runs against her in the general election and defeats her ... that isn’t stealing her election.

I can’t say I recall it from the right perspective, but I’m guessing that myself and three sisters in an early 70's mustang from N. Virginia to LA was probably pretty hellish for my dad.
