Opinions become ideas when argumented properly. That argumentation if of quality includes facts...

Pointing out that "opinions" aren't facts don't hold weight against said opinions...

I'd ask what the reasoning behind holding these opinions is and dispute it from there (if I were well-versed in the topic enough to do so)

What do you have in rebuttal to his opinion?

I took the survey

what did you expect? lmao

How do more people support USA than China?

Nothing at all and was still disappointed lol

I find it interesting how many people support the legalization of marijuana

Actually not surprising for the populace on KTT

.......

Uhm why wouldn't you

I hope my landlord thread swayed some tho

nice try fed i aint clicking that

if more people were being honest on this test that last pie chart would be 100% pink

this just isn't true

Marijuana is a poison. People are branding it for something it's not and it's harming innocent lives

damn this satire

You believe all your political beliefs are fact and not worth being discussed. That prisons being abolished is a "fact". That is not how facts work. Facts are known and proven to be true. Political beliefs are not the same. It can be debated, but not proven. To believe that your specific set of beliefs should be instituted nationwide with absolutely no discussion and to prevent people from having any ideas other than your exact set of beliefs is just dangerous

To the point where I have no interest in continuing this discussion honestly. There's really no point in arguing with you about this or anything else. Easily one of the most dense people I've ever interacted with

Come on man

wow an avy post you got me

Lol I wish

you wish?

you seem to believe we live in a world where the conservative, liberal, fascist, nationalist viewpoints and beliefs haven't been running rampant for how long?

you also just have things ass backwards. it's not prison abolition that is a fact, for example. it is a fact that the prison system is racist, does nothing to reduce crime, instead it actively contributes to it, makes our society less equal, ruins peoples lives, and does nothing to contribute to the healing of communities or victims of crime. So, with those facts in mind, the only conclusion one can come to, after decades, centuries of reform of this system still leading to those exact facts, is that prisons should be abolished because they have proven over and over again to be nothing more than a drain on our society.

Damn, I guess we just need to try good capitalism

yea I wish I was joking but am not, all of you actually believe weed should be legal

when you, in good faith, examine the conditions of the world, particularly in the global south and come to fact based conclusions on what has contributed to the issues facing the poor and working classes the world over, you can truly only reach one overarching conclusion; that the abolition of the capitalist system is necessary for the true liberation of the masses. so yes, i will treat this as fact because it is so.

sorry, i will not give credence to the view points of reactionary right wing fascists or conservatives, or to liberals who look to obscure these facts and seek to uphold the system of exploitation. if that upsets you, well f*** off, you piece of s***.

yikes.

and then you explain your alternative and most people dont want to f*** with it lol.

if you're going to lead a revolution that consists of the working class, they have to be united. you can talk to working class people and they have their fair share of problems. arguing over taxes, laws that were passed, working too many hours etc.

that is much different than getting them on board for your revolution and getting them to support tearing apart our system. those are light years apart.

someone can be unhappy with the government, like a lot of middle class are, and not support what you're talking about.
