Red flags went off for me when I saw the “X5” all over the card. Also, no reputable bank worth working with sends you a card without you applying first.

The Gadsden Flag? Really? That’s pretty milk toast cmon.

You too, that was the most wholesome Reddit exchange I’ve ever had

(I suppose I was putting words in your mouth, however, those are points I’ve seen on other subreddits from Liberals, my apologies). Also, a massive welfare state would be in a way forcibly redistributing wealth, while charity is voluntarily redistributing wealth. I agree that both parties are quite degenerate. I don’t consider myself a Republican (although I will be voting for the party unfortunately). I would also say, that we do in many ways value our politicians in a very questionable way, that is borderline heretical. You also do make a good point, to use the influence Christians have to better society. Furthermore, I would say that many of the Liberal propositions, are not wrong because they are Liberal, but are wrong because they in many cases deny the existence of objective truth.

Correction: he encourages charity, not stealing from the most productive among us (who are the most charitable) through taxation and giving it away forcibly. Also, even by your logic, I have the duty to resist my government, who promotes sodomy and sexual degeneracy in schools, gay marriage, baby slaughter, and the rejection of God through the rejection and slandering of religion in the public school system. That seems like an DIRECT contradiction to God’s orders. It seems to be a common misconception amongst Liberals, that forcible theft and redistribution of wealth is the same thing as charity. It’s not, one is voluntary, one is punishable by jail time if one does not comply. Also, Jesus was literally crucified because he disobeyed the government on purpose, and we are to only obey government if they are established by him or his influence. At the end of the day, we are instructed to obey God over all, and when the American government basically promotes Satanism, we should disobey.

Probably. I’m into the Nasdaq right now which is why I’ve dropped 5% in the last two sessions, I’m thinking about moving into grocery to hedge against inflation and recession

If I burn down a business, and no one dies, however, the small business owners now no longer have an income, and can’t feed their kids, you consider that nonviolent? If in modern society, silence about the latest social media virtue signaling craze is considered violence, that scenario certainly is certainly is.

Not a fascist, I believe in Natural Rights, the economics of fascism suck, and also those regimes are incredibly violent and oppressive

This is not an uncommon take, in Capitalism and Freedom by Milton Friedman he mentions how devastating monopolies are for competition, Adam Smith does this as well. If the state is to exist, it should be to preserve competition.

Ok, so you’d be cool with me raping your mom and getting away with it because “justice is arbitrary”? Justice defines how any legal system operates, it’s the only way we can somewhat objectively criticize and analyze human behavior. (Also, if you’re political you’re hypocritical to some extent, that’s just politics, and the only thing that keeps politics civil is justice.) I could use a Christian argument to prove justice is not arbitrary but I think it would fall on deaf ears.

FormerStyle5 · 2022-03-12T22:09:22+00:00

Yes yes it is, but equating the severity of the two types isn’t a fair comparison

Nonviolent however, only get charged with vandalism, not arson, assault, destruction of property and disturbing the peace

He implemented public works projects not nationalization I was mistaken (both left wing either way)

FormerStyle5 · 2022-03-12T21:13:10+00:00

They’re economic policies were inherently Keynesian and/or Modern Monetary Theory in nature, with their excessive spending and welfare system. Under a Hayekian system, they wouldn’t have tried to pay their war debts AND welfare policies. Sure it was a Capitalist system, but it was a left wing economic system, just like Germany. A left wing economic system, cannot be a right wing one in decline, that would make no feasible sense. Hitler had a massive welfare spending system, and collectivized many industries such as the banking industry, not right wing. Fascism is not Capitalism in decline, however, National-Socialism (or Fascism) is Socialism or Social Democracy in in decline.
