    So we both agree that if someone wants a burger communism cant meet that demand. If it cant meet something as simple as that what makes you think it can meet something like feeding an entire country off the good will of “volunteer” farmers and ranchers?
    That would require some kind of state coercion
    Something like forced relocation to farmlands

    It isn’t communism if the burger isn’t being made voluntarily without the concept of charity being tacked on

    or maybe the problem is unsolveable by design because a solved problem means less money

    i wish everyone was able to have a roof over their head but crime and robbing innocent people isn't the answer. justifying robbing strangers because they have something you don't have is ridiculous. if you don't like the situation work at a non-profit that's helping or work hard and grow your money to the point where you can contribute. there's no perfect system, some other systems just makes life s***ty for everyone and some other places have a huge home vacancy problem. we can work towards solutions but robbing people sets humanity backwards

    no it 100% is a violent experience, no one is denying that, but to blame rich poeple is useless is the issue

    the wealth inequality exacerbates poverty objectively.

    and the ruling class will never give away the power to exploit you and enrich themselves by keeping the working class in poverty of their own free will.

    Lobbying is inherently bad. You really think donating money to influence politics in a democracy isn’t bad, especially one where people make thousands of dollars on a minute by minute basis?

    no its not INHERENTLY bad, go read what lobbying is.

    politicans dont vote on a bill that isn't supported by a population, look at the nra for example,

    it isn't bribery at all. lobbying helps build relatinoships with the population its not a bad thing at all. its gives solutions to issues, its easier for politicans to understand the needs of the population if one person represents 10 thousand voters.

    go read a book man please you seem cool tho

    i didnt say they were surprising, i said they were scary cus u were actin like robbing simply feels like an unfair transaction when really you gettin the s*** scared out of you by some bro you don't know who don't care about you who, in the case of some robberies, got a gun aimed at you

    keyword was scary not surprising

    the other key phrase was "screw the watch", meaning i'm not tryin to compare "a rich person losing their luxury item" to anything

    ok i get you, i agree it can cause trauma and what not

    let me just ask

    would you feel bad if a multi-millionaire got their luxury car stolen? like a software dev in Silicon Valley making millions a year, they get their car jacked and nothing else happens to them

    i wouldnt feel bad for them at all, thats the gist of my thoughts

    Yes? The rich lobby politicians to reduce social programs that can help them because they can make money instead

    making generalizations about every rich person based on what a couple rich people have done is terrible and no group should suffer from such things

    making generalizations about every rich person based on what a couple rich people have done is terrible and no group should suffer from such things

    it's important distinguishing here the bourgeois from "the rich"

    rich is a subjective condition not exactly based on anything

    the bourgeois are the class of people that own all the property of the united states privately and that extract value from their ownership through the exploitation of you as a worker.

    there are no "good" bourgoisie when referring to society at large.
