      The wealthy do what the wealthy do, voters in their millions enable them.

      Up to now you have believed in the existence of tyrants. Well, you were mistaken. There are only slaves. Where none obeys, none commands. – Anselme Bellagarrigue

      Don’t insult people over their nature. Money corrupts, especially over many generations. They just play a rigged game and have the edge to win. Time for some regulations. Social capitalism is the answer, fair taxes even on rich people. Prevent wealth hoarding over a certain point. Stop insulting people and get to three voting booth. Start telling real people to change their vote.

        An child rapist is also just dealing with their nature.

        Putting them in a wood chipper is fair to them, we just need to regulate which children they are allowed to rape.

          Punishment has to be about protection for the people and about rehabilitation of the individual. Don’t forget the pedophile has no choice in his proclivities. So getting him to make healthy safe choices is the goal and protecting children from him. Not killing him, but storing him safely is not about his wellbeing but about keeping the rest of society acting humanely. People here talk about basic income all the time. Not being humane is a slippery slope for society, and the cost of not entering it is very much worth it.

            I wasn’t actually talking about child rape there. Capitalists will rape us and anyone who suggest we just need to regulate the conditions of the rape is fucking insane.

            I do not consent.

        Spare us the civility horseshit. Their nature? The level of organized greed and cruelty that is being inflicted on the world is NOT natural. It is abnormal and it is evil. The “edge to win” means they had a rich white mommy and daddy who also had a rich white mommy and daddy.

        And “some regulations” and “fair tax” aren’t going to fix shit. Social capitalism? What the holy fuck is that? The winning entry in an oxymoron contest? Fuck off liberal.

          Acting humane is about keeping society off a slippery slope not about the billionaires. Keeping people in check is a States prerogative, acting humanely should be a societies first priority.

          Being a raging lunatic killing everything and everyone you disagree with sounds a lot like the nazis but left leaning. ;)
