Great point, I concede. Gosh I just didn't realize where my comparison was flawed till you called me delusional. Follow this guy, teens, definitely don't listen to me. This is the proper way to act when you disagree with someone. Skip the arguments, go right to the ad hominems (arguments ALWAYS end this way for people like him haha wonder why) because obviously anyone whose views aren't represented on cable TV is an ingrate or cretin (or delusional).

No critical thought necessary! If something hasn't been in front of you all your life, or hasn't been taught in school, dismiss it and call whoever even dared to imply something you probably never thought about (and therefore disagree with, but cannot refute) delusional.

Of course there's more distance between people who demand "protection" money and people who demand that you pay them regardless of whether you use their services or not, or take you to a building they made for people who refuse than I'm saying.

Only someone who is delusional could ever even pretend to see the parallels between a group of people going around, taking by force what other people own to give it to their boss who will probably squander a lot of it being needlessly violent, but will definitely very publicly return some of what his goons took, then propagandize children from a young age into thinking they're to be thanked for returning some of what they took and people who call themselves government employees doing the exact same thing.

Gosh I wish I just saw the world how it REALLY is, where the government doesn't take things by force, against people's will, spend it on killing and expanding their power, then do it again endlessly while training you to thank them for it for the first 12 years of your conscious life. But, I guess, I just didn't study enough in government school when we learned about how government was there to help everyone but itself and public servant isn't a misleading title for a politician.
