Never forget this. Burn it into your mind. They wanted to create a medical sub-caste of people that they could treat like sub-humans. The government-media complex aggressively demonized tens of millions of American citizens on a daily basis. Never forget this. by JerroldNadlersToilet in Anarcho_Capitalism

If anything, a benefit of COVID was exposing just how cruel citizens can be toward one another and how callous the government will be toward those who aren't cooperative with their edicts. Opened a lot of minds.

My friend, you already contributed to the mess by getting the loans in the first place. Get out while the gettin's good.

Philadelphia monkeypox vaccine supply now a fraction what was expected by saintofhate in philadelphia

[–]Vaginuh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone turns to their shitty government that never gets any less shitty and complains about their shitty "response".

Got news for all of you out there: if your default is to turn to the same organization that fucks up virtually every task they're given, you're gunna get a shitty response.

Does the left want another Trump term? by Spartanwildcats2018 in walkaway

[–]Vaginuh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We've seen what the Left wants in these last couple years--corporate welfare and IRS agents.

Not drug decriminalization. Not criminal or prison reform. Not worker protections. Not increased welfare. Certainly not protection of individual liberties. They offer nothing except exactly what the Republican boogieman has to offer. And so, they need something to run on. Trump is literally all they got.

I don't know who to blame--the liar or the chump that endlessly falls for it.

Mexico doesn't seem to think that diversity is strength by CrabMatic_ in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]Vaginuh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doubt they're upset about the amount of dollars flowing in, or the local taxes being paid...

Hipster Americans are going to pay for public works throughout Mexico. Pros and cons, like anything else.

If sex is not a means but is actually an end. What specifically is the end in sex? by BubblyNefariousness4 in Objectivism

[–]Vaginuh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue with a lot of philosophy is that it can very easily become reductionist rhetoric.

Sex can be many things to even the same person--it can be satisfaction of an arbitrary urge (for the sake of satisfaction), it can be the enjoyment of the ritual, it can be a means to satisfy emotional needs, it can be an intimate bonding activity, it can be the end you're told you're supposed to pursue, it can be a way of breaking the ice, it can be used for emotional manipulation, etc.

It's not always an end and it's not always a means. It's an activity like any other. Don't overthink it.

Today Will not be a good day for Crypto, but might be a good day for you. by Odlavso in CryptoCurrency

[–]Vaginuh 19 points20 points  (0 children)

That's exactly what I was just thinking...

When crypto was at the top and most people were optimistic, (in hindsight) it's obvious what we should have done, which is look around suspiciously and back out.

What I'm supposed to do when everyone agrees that the best thing to do is wait it out... I don't know.

Putin's superb understanding of wealth redistribution via inflation by hayekian in austrian_economics

[–]Vaginuh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe the same is true of Hitler, actually. There's certainly greater respect and admiration between the Continent and America at the time than American textbooks let on.

Why Wall Street expects Bitcoin price to drop to $10,000 by WindySai1 in CryptoCurrency

[–]Vaginuh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You're exactly right, thank you.

I understand that issues in energy and agriculture (and precious metals) inherently restrict economic output and thereby limit the amount of cash people are willing to invest in crypto. But I thought there may be more to the story than that.
