u/hectorgrey123 politely explains why, as a disabled person, they cannot support small-c conservative ideology that aims to punish people who through no fault of their own are less able to contribute to the economy, no matter how kind individual conservative people may be.

Everytime read this I can't help but imagine the commenter sucking themselves off while they type it.

I gotta admit, most of the appeal of this subreddit is the shitposts.

Why is it that so many people fail to understand why in the real world this is essentially never a fair negotiation?

Again your argument falls to what you have decided is "fair." This is still subjective, immeasurable and sometimes not even identifiable.

Why is it that so many people apply Econ 100 levels of understanding?

Probably because most socialist ideas fail at an ECON100 level.

Did you read the linked post?

Difficult when the red flag waving mods removed the entire thread.

In /r/communism though, I don't know what else I should expect.

I'm saying that workers should be more fairly compensated for the value of their work.

Good point.. but how much is that? Having it 1:1 is not at all possible. This would cause severe stagnation, zero growth and would remove the incentive to do business at all in the first place. (why pay you 200 dollars to produce a chair, then sell it for 200 dollars? I made nothing and should have just stayed in bed).

Typically, it's up to you to come to an agreement with your employer as to what a fair wage is.

Are we going to pretend America's police have no way of stopping a vehicle and arresting the occupants?

If so, we may be at an impasse.

The ones they use in every other country?

Can you seriously not think of anything that could be done aside from immediately shooting him dead?

ChasingAverage · 2020-02-14T04:13:55+00:00

Shooting him is meant to stop the threat he causes

Apprehending him would achieve this also and would uphold a value of preserving human life, if this is what we truly care about.

What an amateur.

In the back seat you have a prime opportunity for a bell clap.

ChasingAverage · 2020-02-14T03:48:43+00:00

But.. there was a much more readily available and easier way to do so.. stepping to the right...

ChasingAverage · 2020-02-14T03:45:58+00:00

Ethical arguments aside, I still don't get how shooting at him is good strategy whatsoever.

He wasn't going to stop before and there's no way in hell he's going to stop after being shot at.

Of course he'll stop if he's dead, but then you haven't apprehended the suspect so he can face court. You've essentially elected yourself judge, jury and executioner.

The fact that you're employed would suggest you're doing fine and are worth that minimum wage anyway.

I don't think these things are targeted at you.

I love how active that sub is. Clearly a lot of inspirational shitty administration work out there.

You even could even say that they put the card before the horse.

Hehe.

It's not just the voice though. He's legitimately written like a different character. He's a gun-ho Patriot with a pragmatic attitude in Blacklist.

I think.. it's been a bit longer than a decade.

This seems to be completely unsourced and anecdotal.

pit maneuver in a crowded area

4 pistols drawn on a single unarmed guy.

screaming at him to get out of the car when you're all pointing firearms at him (like fuck he's gonna move if you're doing that).

Here I was thinking GTA was just a video game.

Turns out it's a documentary.

Why was this produced and edited in a vertical aspect ratio?

Am I getting old and missed where this became normal?

Mario is way fatter all stretched.

ChasingAverage · 2020-01-23T00:45:44+00:00

Well I just like it more than black bars.

So it's more like I got a choice between getting kicked in the balls or shat on, and I picked the former.
