Conservatives.

Sometimes I sit down and muse about the great world we could create if everything was owned by the state, only approved speech was allowed, if only the best people were allowed to reproduce and everyone was only allowed to think approved thoughts. Like to get my Utopia I am even willing to subject an innocent child to a life of constant suffering and misery...

Every last person working to make it a worse world.

Out of the ones you listed, freedom to breed

How much better of a world? I'd be happy with half of what I have if it meant literally everyone else in the world could have that much, certainly. Move 4 more people into the house and give up half the money, half the clothes, my car, of course I would do that if it brought the same level of wealth to every single person, it would be not great at first but wow can you imagine how fast it would get better, if nobody was terribly poor? I'd bet that by the time I was old we'd personally be better off than before the split.

The trump family grifters and all their sycophantic (lookin' at you Lindsay Graham) enablers

The landlords.

There are a lot of them so it would be exhausting work to behead them all myself but that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make

my chains. i've nothing else to lose.

This one.

If you're not free, the world isn't free.

A better world would imply that its better even when considering the sacrifice, meaning that any sacrifice would be worth it

It's hard to imagine a world with no freedom of thought being better, somehow.

In practice, I doubt we'll ever have to sacrifice much more than we already have. (Which is actually a significant amount. For example, until recent history living on a schedule was for ascetics and flagellants)

Private property for sure, as I don't have any.

Freedom of speech too, as I don't have any.

I'd sacrifice social media algorithms. Delete them all.

A better world wouldn’t require sacrificing freedoms.

Private property isn't a sacrifice. I don't own any.

There's a difference between personal property and private property. Private property is a mall, is a factory, is machinery at your workplace. Personal property is your toothbrush, your Playstation, your Television, your blender, your set of German knives, your computer, your books, etc.

Freedom of speech has never existed. The illusion of it has been allowed to be stronger or weaker in various places at various times, if your speech is no threat it's often allowed, it's when it's a threat that suddenly the freedom vanishes and hides behind excuses like national security or illegal ideologies, etc.

I question how you would get rid of freedom of thought without some sort of hellish brain implants being made mandatory so it's an odd thing to mention.

I'd be willing to sacrifice an awful lot of fascists, reactionaries, and an awful lot of enabling liberals. I'd be willing to sacrifice bourgeoisie. The expropriation of their private property is not a sacrifice but a necessity for things being held in common trust for the people.

Private property. I don't actually want to own things for the sake of owning things, I want a stable and reasonably comfortable life. In the current system, the only way to reliably achieve that is to own the things you need in your life. But if the system were such that you could live a decent life without owning a thing, I'll take that.

And that is with the interpretation of private property as literally any possession you can own. If we go by the socialist interpretation of private property as property used to generate capital, I already have no private property and neither do most people here.

I don't think a better world would include sacrificing those freedoms actually. That's some tankie shit.

Freedom to Breed. Easy for me, because I don't plan on having kids ever and I don't really think it is a good idea to be having kids if you're unable to sustain them much less, yourself.

If a better world means we have to limit the amount of people we bring in here until everything chills the fuck out, so be it. There is absolutely no reason or benefit to bring in 3 - 12 kids at a given.

I don't particularly want to be remembered for anything in my life. I don't need fame or standing. I dedicate my life to trying to improve people's lives as a teacher. I'd give my life if it meant everyone would live a significantly better life forever.
