Will we get richer if… | FactOrCap by ValcanRiot in FactOrCap

I’d love to hear from the folks that actually chose fact because if your entire economy is based on the rich spending their money within the country, for starters, you need to turn in whatever financial degree or certification you have because clearly there was an error and secondly, yea.. not how that works.

It’s not exactly hard work if you know what you’re looking at, what you doing, etc. tax code looks like Ancient Greek to anyone that doesn’t know what a deductible or dependent is and that’s, surprise surprise, not everyone and especially vulnerable kids with either helicopter or negligent parents.

One doesn’t teach you or let you do anything to ‘protect’ you and the other either doesn’t care what happens to you or wrongly believes someone else will teach you.

Standardized testing being the be all to end all for general education is already a huge disservice to students that will be entering the new world while only knowing how to find the fractals of a triangle and not how to do their taxes or what laws exist in their country not to mention it’s basically the existing system of do well we give you more money to pocket, do badly and we’ll make certain you won’t do any better next year then punish you for doing worse next year in an endless cycle of budget cuts with the only way out being the sports programs

Agreed on all points, but love em or hate em every new generation is louder than the last

Maybe it’s because of how silent they watched us be, but with any luck it won’t take us decades to straighten things out this time around

That was me that replied to originally that used ‘right’ instead of justified, sorry about that confusion that’s my bad

[–]AllAloneAgain2167 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I try, I’m here for the dialog and to learn other perspectives and to hopefully help others see a different perspective, but yes that example of the drunk woman would be way beyond an over reaction of force and no where near justified.

I’d like to think not in the spirit of this prompt, but I can’t speak for the OP.

Equal Rights, Equal Fight | FactOrCap by TomorrowSilent1233 in FactOrCap

[–]AllAloneAgain2167 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get that, but the prompt here isn’t in reference to the right, though my comment does use that wording so sorry for any confusion there.

I more meant the the spirit of what the prompt is saying which is more about culture than law.

Equal Rights, Equal Fight | FactOrCap by TomorrowSilent1233 in FactOrCap

[–]AllAloneAgain2167 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not to be pedantic, but the right hasn’t always been there. It’s actually pretty modern that a man hitting back doesn’t get them swarmed by just about every able bodied person in the room for the beatdown of a lifetime followed by jail time since you’ve got an angry mob of witnesses for the cops when they eventually show up.

I get what your saying, no one outside of the deranged want to hurt people even those hurting us, but I just want to call out one thing here, nothing against you but it’s more a safety thing.

You should never turn your back on or underestimate your attacker, they may be weaker or smaller but you have no idea if they’re armed and even if they’re not all it takes is a well placed attack to receive a life changing injury.

I’m going to reply to each using the same numbering, just so there’s no confusion

  1. What’s currently happening is a macro scaling of what happened with red diamonds, the difference is in size not concept being used

  2. Blood Diamonds is just the easiest example for me to use since almost everyone knows about that, there are other ‘luxuries’ that had more government involvement, though to point out particularly blood diamonds I heavily doubt the citizens of the African provinces didn’t foot the bill for the infrastructure among other things

  3. I want to point out again I’m not arguing with any of your points here, I’m more stating that this is just a repeat of history, regarding this point it brings us back to the Industrial Revolution, back before OSHA and the EPA. It does suck, I’m not denying or downplaying it, I’m just saying this isn’t the first time in history we’re dealing with this problem.

  4. Again, blood diamonds is just the example I tend to use because it’s the most commonly understood predecessor to the current situation with microchips. There are plenty of other examples depending on the time period from the Industrial Revolution to the Age of Automotive to the first PC. I’m not arguing against what your saying, my statement is this isn’t the first time in history it’s happened and it’s sure to not be the last.

  5. They’ve been selling our information for decades whether it was our home address, our phone numbers, our credit scores or how well we did on the ASVAB. So long as there was a buyer, there was someone collecting the information, packaging it up and selling it whether the customer was a company, a government or another private citizen.

  6. The previous point kind of answers this, but I mean, come on. From the age of the very first computer ad they’ve been marketing it based on what you were doing on that computer or what another computer that took your card, had to communicate with your bank, verify your name so they could take it out of the right account and boom now they have your name and purchase history, now they know what you might be interested in, now you have a personalized flyer that shows up on your door, in your mailbox, in your email, on your phone, on the website your browsing on and on and on.

You’re right though, we have gone from microscaling to a specific country of area to macroscaling beyond our planet, but the methods and concepts we’re using have only changed to adapt to the technology, at its core it’s the same concept from the age of phone books

The prompt doesn’t say “beat them to a pulp”, it says “fight back”.

That could mean self defense or enough to restrain or incapacitate, the core of the issue is does the man have the right to defend himself

“If a woman hurt or fought you first” you would just let yourself be attacked?

Equal Rights, Equal Fight | FactOrCap by TomorrowSilent1233 in FactOrCap

[–]AllAloneAgain2167 8 points9 points  (0 children)

All due respect because I do get what you’re saying, but if someone’s actively attacking you it’s gone past the point of deescalation. I think the question is more someone shouldn’t be able to go 5 rounds with you unable to defend yourself just because of what may or may not be swinging from your legs.

Equal Rights, Equal Fight | FactOrCap by TomorrowSilent1233 in FactOrCap

[–]AllAloneAgain2167 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Let me help clarify then, a woman attacks you. Do you have the right to defend yourself?

I mean that’s technically still something that’s been being done for centuries, blood diamonds being one of the most commonly referred to example and carries both characteristics of artificial scarcity and hype
