I offered you many opportunities to present arguments, which you didn’t take. Or maybe I just don’t understand you.
Have a good one anyway.
without actually engaging with the points I’ve made
You have made one. “but socialism” but in your own words. That somehow it would mean feeling entitled to something from your peers. That imo is nothing but a feeling, which i guess you’re entitled to feel.
Not your best slogan yet.
“except in the US” would’ve been a bit too on the nose, i thought.
you just seem so upset at me listing the benefits of a concept as basic as public transport without ever mentioning anything other than “but communism” and “irrelevant other thing should not be publicly funded so neither should this” :'D
Like sorry that it works in most of the western world
The forces down there obliterated the sub, turned humans into little more than molecule soup and scattered the whole thing across a huge open area.
Analogies usually relate to the topic i guess.
Not a commercial, didn’t know stating facts relevant to the discussion is frowned upon in your circles.
Guess we’re done here, if you don’t like to discuss anything, maybe just don’t reply next time.
I have never in my life seen a publicly owned strip club or heard of governmental strip club subsidisations.
Is that a US thing?
A national or international rail network makes long distance travel safer, faster, more affordable, more sustainable and by those factors incredibly more accessible to lower income citizens.
You pay taxes regardless, wouldn’t you want them to go towards something that benefits you and your peers?
Some questions (some are a bit polemic but I kinda wanna find common ground in the end):
Do you drive on roads that you didn’t pave yourself?
Do you maintain them yourself - if not, do you expect them to be generally connecting you to other places?
Do you use the public power grid?
Do you depend on water lines?
Have you ever taken a flight from a city’s main airport?
Have you served, or support the military?
Do you consider any of these being publicly funded “socialism” or “demanding something of your peers”?
In general, the way things work in my home country - the district / city / county / state / federal government have funds to maintain things on their corresponding scale (ascending local to federal) that are deemed either publicly beneficial or even essential.
None of that is socialism, but in our case a “social democracy” i.e. making sure the bare, liveable minimum of life in this society functions through tax money and the federal budget in general.
So to me it looks… weirdly disconnected to call any of these things “thinking you’re owed something from your peers”, just because one of these individual pieces might not be immediately relevant to your day to day routine.
Because its a net benefit for the vast majority of daily use cases.
Why would literally anyone not support that.
And i dont mean nobody can ever drive anything again, its just silly to day “i dont support the extension of public transport”
You seem to be misunderstanding both the quote and the comment! No offense, i can see how it could be confusing.
What Krah said was meant in a historical context. Kind of a “not all SS-members were criminals”, basically downplaying the Nazis crimes.
The commenter sarcastically called him “totally not a nazi” for that statement.
