What crazed lunatics?
Yeah they are doing a hyperbole but it would be 100% legal and moral to make laws to restrict wealth and then once the law is there, seize billionaire wealth and leave them with 100 million dollars or something (so not even dragging them down to our level).
Responses like yours forget that people are frustrated and have already said the reasonable versions thousands of times.
Really? When did it start cause during all my history classes I didn’t hear about it.
I thought taxes were introduced at a certain point, not that they’ve been here since the dark ages.
Do you have anything I can read up on about this?
Owning land without any taxes or anything.
Im pro taxes but hey, when in Rome…
So doesn’t that mean the US didn’t really ever have separation of powers? Sounds like the door to fascism wasn’t locked and we just used the honour system.
About a month ago I made this comment about Biden jailing trump:

People downvoted at the time but I knew the writing was on the wall. We were always gonna arrive here in 4 years.
Why would he do that though?
Biden is the status quo president, why would he be a martyr?
Ban felons from running for president.
Pretty good rule tbh
Also, here is me saying he should jail trump a while ago when they were arguing that a president could do anything:

As in republicans could veto the nomination?
Could dems veto the new justices?
Sorry im not American and am trying to understand. I thought dems could have but chose not too due to integrity.
How? Wouldn’t what he did be legal when he did it?
I was talking about the forceful oppression of opposition. That is an element that has existed in the US for a long time.
US has had no dictator yet but a president has much more power than a prime minister.
If you consider fascism to be a spectrum, then US has always had these elements. Dictatorship is basically the end of said spectrum.
So I’ve had this issue too, it’s because we can’t agree on the definition.
I use the definition in the dictionary and based on that, US could fall under it, kind of loosely but technically correct.
I support public transport but I really don’t know how to convince people. I live in North America.
But all those are poor people who got rich via crime since they didn’t really have other avenues.
The Batman lore has a lot of hidden messages about social class and hierarchy which doesn’t translate well to today.
How much are they paying? And how much for the expert to be bribed to change their mind?
Asking for a friend.
We can't keep reacting to them and treating every election like it's the last night at the Alamo.
Thank you! While I do agree, voting for Biden is a no brainer when it comes to the binary choice, as someone from another country, this shit is frustrating.
You guys have had the same tone since 2016. I get it but clearly there is a huge crack in the system that is just propagating more and more.
The rest of the world is worried, as in worried long term, not just for November.
Putting all the politics aside, man I wish he got more roles. The purple man was the best part of Jessica Jones.
Celebrities should stick to what they good at. Her writing the book should give no authority to her opinions, even if we agreed with her.
Yep, I never understood the appeal besides making kids feel special. It seemed like a water down fantasy which when I criticized people just said read the books.
Ironically I did read the first one before the movies became a big hit. It was an okay children’s book at best.
For some reason we have these unwritten social rules that say you can’t critique certain pop culture icons once they hit critical mass.
They are honestly both good, but can’t beat the native ios experience.
