    Do you consider a business employing people to mutually ageed standards moral?

      Business aren’t moral entities and it should never be assumed that they will act as such. In fact, the basis by which one should assume a business will operate is on profits and profits alone.

      Therefore, if you want to make business behave in any sort of moral fashion their behavior must be regulated and businesses with a history of societal harm must be highly regulated.

      Based on these truths one must view with a highly skeptical eye anyone who wishes to broadly remove regulations without specificities as to which ones they want to remove and why the regulation is unnecessary. The belief that regulations are bad–generally speaking–is an inherently unethical and immoral position.

        Yeah. So literally using police to force shit is just bros being bros. Hiring someone to paint your fence, oppression. Got it.

            Just being reductionist doesn’t make it bad faith. I do appreciate your response and I’m sorry I just wasn’t into digging into weeds of justification.

            It doesn’t really do any good to go back and forth and call our views when we have wild deviations at a very basic level.

                I was trying to get an idea of their ideas. I asked a simple question and got a huge response that just veered wild. I apologized for them putting in that effort.

                I’m not a conservative I just believe in individual rights. I mentioned it elsewhere, but there’s no coherent definition of conservative to be found. If you want to call a dude with pro-choice and trans stickers on his wallet conservative, you do you.

                    That’s too bad. I tend to get on well with syndicalists and mutualists.

                    Sorry for the late and lackluster reply. My wrists feel like they have axes wedged through them. Hooray for RA.
