    Too bad for that whole “tolerance paradox” being a thing…

        I’m talking that such a revolution can’t be peaceful to happen because there exists powerful parties that are very interested in keeping the status quo who will NOT hesitate to use death squads to stop you from changing the status quo.

        Good luck convincing companies like Black Rock, that have both huge investments in housing properties and paramilitary, to just let everyone have free housing, or Nestle (who I hope I don’t even have to cover the atrocities they have and still do) to let people have free water, when the CEO has himself publicly stated he doesn’t think people are entitled to water.

        Also, never said death squads, but nice strawman.

          such a revolution can’t be peaceful to happen

          Never said anything about it not being peaceful. “Getting the wall” is an executional method. There’s a difference between enacting violence and executing people.

          Also, never said death squads, but nice strawman.

          What do you think “getting the wall” means? O.o

              Like… nice deflection and if you don’t want to continue the argument, that’s fine, but… Is that it?

              All that contrarian shit and accusing me of strawmanning and all that and it ends with an insincere, sarcastic comment?

                Yeah. After thinking about it, it’s not like the USA will ever have a revolution as much as a forced civil war, if it happens, and then violence would be inevitable.

                So arguing about a utopia that can’t peacefully happen is really redundant.

                  Still not getting your point. Not sure you used “redundant” correctly here.

                  You do know that there’s more that the US in the world, right?

                    Yes, but considering most of the world at least has some form of nationalized healthcare already, including UK, Canada, and Australia, and the commentary is in English, it really narrows the likelihood that you and most others are talking about the USA.

                    I know it isn’t here in Finland you’re talking about at least.
