Bernie would have won.

I blame everyone who voted for Hillary Clinton in the 2016 primary for our 2 Trump presidencies and so should you.

Yeah, that’s about the response I would expect from someone like you.

Gonna block you now. You need to spend less time on these forums to fix your worldview.

What? Women don’t want to start families until they can be sure they can get an abortion? And you speak for all of them on the matter?

Lol. I think you’re too far gone, buddy.

That’s not true.

You should spend more time off of these forums so you don’t have such a myopic view of the world.

That would be nice.

Americans have proven that they don’t want anything that reduces the disparity in wealth, though.

That’s why democrats nominated Hillary Clinton instead of Bernie Sanders in 2016, resulting in a Trump presidency. I also think that if Trump didn’t win in 2016, he wouldn’t have had a better chance in 2020 or 2024. So I actually blame 2 Trump presidencies on the people who voted for Hillary Clinton in the 2016 Democrat Primary.

What?

You have to be a special kind of stupid to advocate for punishing men because Trump won.

Sane people should not let this interfere with them starting a family. I guess that’s why you can’t understand my point.

Also gonna block you, it’s clear you’re too far gone from these forums.

That’s not at all what I’m suggesting and this isn’t specific to fascism.

Greed and unchecked entitlement is what made America what it is today. As long as people can’t see past their own wealth, these problems will continue to perpetuate. This generation is proud to take advantage of others and envies those who get rich off of exploitation.

Framing it as a culture war instead of a class war helps contribute to the steady decline of America.

Edit: The fact that you immediately jumped to ‘fascism’ instead of ‘greed’ or the growing disparity in wealth further proves my point that these problems will not be solved in our lifetime. We’re not even looking in the right direction at this point.

Everyone reading this right now should recognize that America will be on a steady decline for the rest of our lives.

There’s no point in waiting for it to improve. There’s no point in waiting for it to fall.

Just accept that it is a trend that will not end while we are still living. Don’t waste your life waiting for the day that never comes.

I’ve noticed shitty men have it too easy. It’s a cultural problem centered around what we value.

I genuinely believe there are trolls who throw shit like this at the wall just to see if it will stick.

It’s sad when people actually mess up their families because they listen to trolls on the internet.

Sigh. This is not and is never the answer.

I’m not sure why this generation is so gung-ho to sell itself out.

Probably Oblivion, although I’m replaying Skyrim right now and loving it.

Something about the atmosphere of Oblivion I just can’t get away from. It’s comfy.

The people who do the hiring are part of a business’ expenses, not its profit.

They will still be doing their job like they normally do.

I assume a company that is allowed to have profit will be able to offer higher wages to be competitive

Where do they get that money? By charging you and I more than what a product costs to produce and bring to market. If people had higher standards (which they don’t), then they would go to the business that gives them the best deal.

Right now we live in a culture where people are proud to spend more money even if it’s for a worse product. Everything is backwards regarding personal financial responsibility which is why there is so much excess yet most people still think they “need” more money.

The people who do the work already.

Profit, by definition, is excess. It’s what’s leftover after all other business expenses are paid, including employee wages.

The truth is they put a huge burden on public services.

Do they? If so, you must be in favor of banning smoking anything, right?

they create insane amounts of litter.

Do they? If so, it sounds like there needs to be harsher penalties and greater enforcement for litter laws!

Are you stupid? It’s not about the “businesses” and their well-being. It’s about the effect that black markets have on society.

People are going to get their drugs whether they’re legal or not. If you paid attention in history class and reality, you’d know that prohibition and the war on drugs does not solve the issue.

No, it wouldn’t

People working in and supporting the industry would work and consume as they always have.

It’s the business owners that would be hurting, as their entire existence depends on siphoning off the excess people are willing to pay for products and services.

Prices wouldn’t even go up. Businesses already charge the most people are willing to pay.

I like the way you think.

Capitalists would rather there be a ban so that proles don’t realize how much they’re getting f**ked.

🥱

More black markets aren’t the solution.

There needs to be a cultural change.

Unfortunately, one person or even the minority cannot do this.

Until more people actually want to solve these problems, these problems won’t get solved. Wow.

It’s not a turnout issue. US “democracy” is fundamentally broken and favors those already in power. It’s important for those in power that gridlock issues such as abortion and gun control never get solved yet remain the focal point of elections to distract from the ever-growing disparity in wealth.
