Can you please explain your line of thinking here? This person purpose more drastic measures than just taxing, and you jump on them being against democracy. How is democracy = some people being ultra rich?

Like, for me, democracy means people decide how the society is ruled, so Im excited to hear how changing the system to get rid of disparity is the same as abolishing democracy

What do you think that poster is proposing?

Why does that matter? I was asking you to explain your line of thinking, and you're not even trying to answer my question Abolishing the rich is not an attack on democracy, som id like to hear your way of thinking here

Not sure if you're pretending to be OP or you're actually OP. Either way, this one is toast in this community.

Edit: It was a temp ban anyway, don't worry too much about it.

Look around, there's States with a somewhat working mix of capital and social. Take that as a minimum, while some of them already talk about universal basic income.

Some historical presidents and judges literally sold you out. That's not democracy, you're a plutocracy.

Do you think that poster is specifically proposing these things? He's talking about getting rid of the system.

Edit: Go deeper into the thread.

Honestly, i don't see how you can fix it without starting anew.

It's not really a great idea to troll the mod.

I only see disagreement here, no trolling. What I do see oss a mod using their mod status to silence people they disagree with This is a great moment to take a minute to reconsider how you are using your mod status to win discussions instead of making a good environment
