The thread is mostly social democrats, except for a guy who got so over-eager about chasing out a communist that he accidentally did holocaust denial.

To be honest I don't really like the tax evasion thing because, like, even if they did pay their taxes it wouldn't be enough, if you can become a billionaire the taxes aren't high enough.

Also the whole "but are you going to stifle ASPIRATION???" like gently caress you yes I am, if making one person slightly less happy because they can't have their own personal island to make a million people not miserable, wouldn't you do it? gently caress yea I would, how is this even a loving question, it's not even Trolley Problem, you just... don't let them accumulate billions of dollars, you're not killing them

Also how much inspiration and innovation and cool new things from mankind are going to come from those million people you just gave a comfortable life to? How many great inventors and scientists and artists have we lost in Africa to starvation?

Everytime I remember about shaver plugs my mind is blown again. I know what the rationale behind it is, I just find it so ridiculous because I never charge the bathroom appliances in the bathroom so I just end up buying an adapter and plug it to the appliance and keep it there permanently so it becomes a normal plug.

ahem its: Torio delenda est.

Just saying.

Could these be the Roman Tories?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optimates

quote:

They formed in reaction against the reforms of the Gracchi brothers—two tribunes of the plebs between 133 and 121 BC who tried to pass an agrarian law to help the urban poor, and a political reform that would have diminished the influence of the senatorial class. As the Optimates were senators and large landowners, they violently opposed the Gracchi, and finally murdered them, but their program was upheld by several politicians, called the Populares ("favouring the people"). For about 80 years, Roman politics was marked by the confrontation of these two factions.
