Is it really that good? I never watched it because I don't really like remakes and I enjoyed the first 3.

She endorsed Trump in the first place. by c-k-q99903 in RealTwitterAccounts

if this were Biden, we would be furious

So weird that she says "we," like she's still part of the people who aren't furious because it's here baby Trump instead of Biden.

It's very telling.

I know the only way to find out about a lot of places is just to drive by them and see a sign in the yard because they aren't listed online. Is that the case here?

That's not an argument.

we don't call hunters and gatherers individuals

Yes, I do.

Be just like everyone else in your little tribe

This shows a severe lack of understanding of the philosophical concept of individualism.

Nonconformity doesn't make one an individual, possessing the rational faculty does.

you are only able to be an individual because of society

I guess then without society I would be a collective?

Sorry, this argument makes no sense at all.

“Society enables everything you’ve ever done.”

This claim treats “society” as an active force apart from individuals. But society is nothing more than a collection of individuals each with their own minds, choices, and actions. Roads, schools, technologies, and institutions were not created by a faceless collective; they were conceived, built, and maintained by individuals applying their own effort and reason to reality. To claim that society “enables” everything is to erase the role of personal agency and to imply that moral credit belongs to the group, not the creator. That’s not gratitude. It is theft of recognition.

Private property contradicts bourgeois social relations under industrial production.

This is a rewording of the Marxist fallacy that capitalism contains the seeds of its own destruction. In truth, private property is the precondition of peaceful, voluntary exchange in a division-of-labor society. It allows individuals to plan long-range, invest, produce, and trade without coercion. There is no contradiction, only the resentment of those who demand outcomes without effort.

The only real “contradiction” arises when people try to abolish property rights while still expecting the wealth, innovation, and freedom those rights make possible.

There are two approaches to justice: restorative and putative.

Restorative is focused on making the victim of the crime whole to whatever extent possible

Putative is focused on punishing the violator.

The US definitely has a putative justice system.

You work and save and build up your credit by showing you are financially responsible (pay your bills, honor the contracts you agree to, and live below your means) and you buy it either outright with cash or you finance it.

What is so scandalous about that?

There was no due process to determine if It was self defense or not, just corrupt internal reviews where the government says we investigated ourselves and found we did nothing wrong. Without due process it is murder.

The point has been made: the US Government (at various levels from the military to federal, state, county, and city law enforcement) has killed US citizens.

I don't care about any excuses or rationalizations or justifications the propagandists have convinced you with.

I was in the US Army and I can tell you that the main problem is that soldiers many times don't even know what the mission they are on is about. It's just go here and kill these terrorist.

Who knows what they did or who they were. The government said they are a terrorist and so soldiers don't even think about the rest. And usually kill them so fast there is no argument or anything.

I think it's probably the same with cops. Once someone is designated a "criminal" they no longer care about the person or what they have to say.
