That's a common piece of libertarian propaganda but what happens in reality is businesses are forced to offer decent wages to attract labor and the ones that don't, perish - as they should.
It certainly wasn't hollow when work weeks could go anywhere from 60 to 80 hours during the industrial revolution. The fact that the minimum wage has been rendered sub-optimal after several decades of inflation and a…
Your perspective seems to be completely orthogonal to reality. 1. That is actually how "wages work". The state decides what is the minimal possible wage and then businesses will pay that amount to low status workers…
I think the point was that it is circular reasoning.
As opposed to the other crowd who callously disregarded the dangers of the virus because it was primarily dangerous to the elderly. I wonder what represents a larger group of people: those at risk from side effects of…
Sorry, did you expect everyone to be blown away by the litany of common (and widely debunked) talking points from fossil fuel apologists?
"Some of" meaning a tiny fraction of the total population vs those that suffered no ill effects from the vaccination at all.
I actually think you're all misunderstanding what you're discussing. No, I won't expand as to why, I just wanted to continue this alleged misunderstanding train.
Presumably all with stage 3 cancer from the radiation on our way to a mandatory shift to pay off our several million dollar fare over the next 300 years of multigenerational indentured servitude.
I thought this would be an interesting comment about the article but it came right out of the gate with The Message (Wokeism Bad!) and I lost interest. In all seriousness though, do you not see how incredibly self…
I love how you claim there is no line and then almost immediately afterwards establish that you do in fact have a line - that line being if a person is a conspiracy theorist or dangerous person. Unfortunately for your…
You do realize that we are specifically discussing ideas that are so reprehensible as to warrant being kicked off platforms, right? Also, I'd love to see examples of the things you're talking about that are…
How about when the idea itself is directly calling for the opposition of the freedom of others? Fascist and racist ideas are not difficult to parse and there is generally little to no ambiguity in their interpretation.…
Again, this is just more absurd hypothetical scenarios. The reality is never as ambiguous as you're painting it. What you're describing is how a fascist would conduct a confrontation, not anybody who believes in truth.…
Nope, not even close to the truth. You should probably stop spreading FUD when it's apparent you don't know one iota about history. When an idea is transparently horrible, it's proponents are not interested in…
The line is incredibly simple actually. Ideas that are diametrically opposed to the freedoms of others should not get to spread off the back of the institutions that are supposed to be protecting those freedoms. A free…
Bullshit. For one, no speech has been "banned" here. Andrew Tate and others of his ilk are free to preach their hateful message but they're not free to do it off the backs of others. As for the 100 year view, you don't…
Why do people keep making this same tired, frankly stupid, and entirely ahistorical analysis? Fascists don't need any "martyr", even leaving aside the fact that nothing being done to Andrew Tate here is worthy of that…
I was referring to his Only Fans "agency" but I actually somehow forgot the far more blatant and very much not legal thing he stands accused of: https://thesportsgrail.com/andrew-tate-house-raided-in-roman...
Andrew Tate is definitely guilty of TOS violations on more than one platform (and a whole lot more egregious offences like quasi-legal sex trafficking but I digress) so I'm not sure that a millionaire who does not…
Boo boo? I'm not sure exactly why you expect Japan to be held to a different or lower standard than the rest of the world but I don't stop to think about the feelings of disgruntled nationals when bringing up racism in…
I'm a little confused by your rant when they clearly stated having kids as the sacrifice here - which makes a lot more intuitive sense than whatever antinatalist position you're projecting here onto them. Also, while…
Well, the writing was on the wall as soon as they started blocking "Russian misinformation" that DDG are trying to ape the general practices of other search engines. Now, even the privacy itself is a secondary concern.…
I never claimed to have an incorruptible mind. However, if you want an example of what is the logical outcome of your mentality, I would refer you to the treasure trove of delusions that is Infowars.
I think virtually all US presidents are war criminals but if you think those currently in power are uniquely inhuman rather than uniquely lucky, then you've fallen for the same trap as those who believe they're in power…
