Yes but people said this at the time, that it was just a test for a full-on Orwellian nightmare. But hey, you can always hop into a little boat and make for France, the EU will undoubtedly catch up with the UK soon but there more freedom-oriented countries there like Czech or Hungary, then there's also Switzerland and plenty of plane tickets towards South America and Asia
Incredible, but not surprising of course - they create a problem by reducing your standard of living and pretend to solve it by further decreasing your standard of living. Anyone who believe this is for the good of anyone other than the government itself is not naΓ―ve or ignorant, they're an utter moron and can't be saved.
Not true, it was at the start, served as a reference for some less serious contenders and continues to stand unopposed.
I truly believe the big print is already here but with arbitrary numbers not based on reality, today's trillion can easily become tomorrow's quadrillion and next week's quintillion, so my current feelings about it may well be irrelevant. Great book though ππ»
Maybe Mother Earth is greedy. Maybe Mother Earth is a Kulak and needs to be re-educated.
This! I have been saying this for years and people kept looking at me like I'm some weird, backwards, nostalgic, lunatic longing to live in his grandparents' time.
The model is missing the four elephants and the giant space turtle underneath, carrying the disk.
It's funny that having enough space to have a library nowadays is associated with people so fantastically rich that most of their houses are just speculative assets or inflation-guards anyway. So in that mental image the houses with libraries are the least soulful because they never have food, family, and laughter in them.
When I was in government school, we were forced to attend church on certain holidays, I have never been baptized and don't belong to any religion so I was angry that I was made to participate. So far I have never been forced to participate in any sexual activities against my will so no complaints there. And the restrictions based on other people's politics to what I'm allowed to do with my body and property are too numerous to count, I'm sure you , like everyone else, have lots of grievances in that department as well.
Marvellous, I'll check it out, thanks!
Of course it isn't, I'm only talking about the use of government violence to coerce people to actively participate.
Sorry mate, I don't think you can tax your way out of socialism. Wealth inequality may be a sign of tyranny but it is also a hallmark of actual, real capitalism, unlike the interventionist crony-capitalism we see around the world. The difference is that in free-market capitalism, although vastly poorer than the richest people in society, the least wealthy still have enough to make a living, maybe even a decent one, whereas in a tyrannical, socialist system, the poor have so very little that the very thought of continuing to live seems like a cruel joke. You suggest centralized, violent expropriation of those that have, rightfully or unrightfully, gained wealth and transfer it to those who have less, which is exactly what the current systems are based on, in other words, more of the same. Also, you completely leave out the role of government in all of this misery, the unlimited inflation of the money supply since 1971 which automatically nominally enriches all holders of assets while expropriating holders of cash and bank balances, as well as Cantillon effects enriching the politically connected to the detriment of those who can't employ lobbyists. I commend your taking the time to ponder solutions but, like any good doctor, you must look much deeper than simply to counteracting symptoms and find the real, actual cause of the disease wracking society as we now it. And just to be clear, I also have no interest in any form of wide-spread violence or "class warfare". I'm also poor myself so I have no interest in continuing the status quo.
Sure, I only get angry about the first three if they're to be forced upon me but I always get angry about latter four.
Suddenly, Amazon π
There might be out-of-the-box tools for this, especially for wordpress, but my approach would involve writing a teeny bit of code and then either host the tool somewhere or just run it on your computer (since you're the only one interested in the result) to save 100% of the cost. If I were to build something like this for myself (and I might, sounds like a great idea), I'd use a quirky little Python package called scrapy ("The world's most used open source data extraction framework") and simply go through all the "" tags on your site (I see that pretty much all the information is on a single page which makes things much easier), call the "href" or link/url on it, and see what comes back, creating a list of broken links and logging them for the user to review afterwards.
Yup, I assumed that was the case π
Fair point, especially in the east I wouldn't be able to understand them but I am following the goings-on in France, Spain, Britain, Germany, Austria, and Switzerland and I can name Tommy Robinson in Britain and Martin Sellner in Austria, that's two in roughly 30 countries that might match the infamy of Charlie Kirk and I sure am actively looking for people like that, even though Kirk and the other two aren't exactly part of the liberty movement.
There's certainly a reason that Europe doesn't seem to have culturally influential people who aren't backed by some sort of state power. Disgusting.
How about a no-party-system, no elections, no parliaments, presidents, or administrators, no coercion, no legal violence except for self-defense and everybody is king or queen of their own mind, body, and little patch of dirt.
I'd rather be in on a good system based on individual values and the value of the individual.
