I don't think Jesus would be a socialist, but he definitely spoke out about the kinds of things promoted by capitalism.

being forced to give goes against free will

If God existed, it doesn't sound like he gave free will. Any moderately popular Christian or Jewish belief in him doesn't really make out God as giving us true free will.

Nah, reading comprehension fail again. He's not saying you are disrespectful if you don't stand, he's saying the players were. And that's largely true, since the only reason Kaepernick sat in the first place was because he was bitter about losing his starting job and genuinely hates America. What the has to do with police brutality or anything else they're crying about is exactly... nothing.

How does Kaepernick hate America any more than any other person that has ever expressed anger at the state of America and wanting change? And are we really going to talk reading ability when the governor asks everyone to stand and calls the players who knelt America haters? It's such a transparent passive-aggressive jab at people who don't stand that I'm surprised the governor isn't making it on Tumblr from behind his goofy mustache, undercut, and skinny jeans.

TIL you can only share political opinions in public if you have special knowledge or experience with politics.

You can share your political opinions wherever you want.

But doing it on a film/TV/music awards show makes you look like a gigantic tool.

So do you only have an issue with it at award shows specifically? Or are you saying people should only share political opinions, or it is only appropriate, if they are immediately relevant to their career and they have some special expertise in politics? How did our sad excuse for a President even get his new career off the ground in that case? Entertainment without politics is a world that will never exist. Politically charged works of art have existed as long as art. Everyone has opinions and art is an avenue artists use to express their opinions.

TIL you can only share political opinions in public if you have special knowledge or experience with politics. Mal has singlehandedly killed media and general society with a CE post. Pack it up, world.

It sounds like you're just upset because the more popular opinions among the entertainment industry are left-wing and modern culture has made them easily distributed. You wouldn't be throwing a hissy fit if Trump praise was all over our media.

All "I wish X would stop talking about politics or I wish politics were kept out of Y" means is "I disagree with the politics of X and Y and thus don't want them in my media". You're not being unique or insightful, just sharing a typical, annoying human opinion.

Universal basic income?

Pfft, don't make me laugh. So more lazy, chunky people can sit on their asses and sponge off those of us with jobs and self respect?

I don't think so. Go get your own money. If you don't want to work and take care of yourself as an adult, don't eat then if you aren't even trying. Why do you deserve to be taken care of? Why cater to the lowest in society, instead of letting middle class people keep more of their own money?

They will spend it better than most poor people anyways, give people free money and they blow it out of a cannon. Using foodstamps to buy steaks, must be nice.

It is in your selfish interests for society to help poor people. Unless you are so rich that you can afford to completely isolate yourself from common society and fly into space if Earth gets too bad, then you are being your own enemy here. Poor people don't just quietly dissolve into the ether if you tell them to go fuck themselves. They just become bigger drains on society. But hey, at least we don't have to feel icky about helping those dirty poor!


Dude, please don't use that generic shit @hockeybub89. I grew up so poor we didn't get to order burgers with cheese on them when we went to b bops until I was 13. You get that? Because my mom would be damned if she's gona pay 35 cents for cheese, she'd hit the drive through After the supermarket and cheese it herself. That's where ik coming from, and I could go on.

I love wic, I know people need help with foodstamps at times, poor people should have access to certain important preventive medical care, including dentistry. This isn't about fuck the poor, I got mine, jack! This is a guy who grew up right there in it, and you know what I learned?

Only those families can pull themselves out of it. By changing their lifestyles, changing the way they eat, work, and get by. We worked the garage sales, I didn't get new clothes every year like other kids. Me and my dad picked up shit of the curb in rich neighborhoods, sometimes for us and sometimes to sell on ebay. We worked side carpentry jobs on the weekend, etc, my mom babysat

WE made it work because we were proud and we wanted to take care of ourselves. I know for a fact that many people nowadays do not put in the efforts and make the sacrifices that we did. We didn't have cable TV until I was out of the fucking house, a cell phone was unheard of. As was a new vehicle. Can these people all say the same? No!

They say gimme, gimme, gimme, it's too hard. BULLSHIT , I lived it.

It's a damn shame your life was like that. Millions of people obviously don't pull their way out, so we should help them rather than hope they can do so.

Your story is a statement against society, not in favor of it. No one should ever have to suffer as your family did. Everyone doesn't have that superhuman strength to endure and eventually thrive and we shouldn't expect that of them. I heard America is supposed to be first world, not motherfucking India. People think they are the rule when they fight through hardships better than most people when they are obviously the exception.

A stronger safety net or a universal basic income can exist without a society becoming communist Russia or some shit. America has never been a pure capitalistic society and never will be as that would be a hellhole. Most people seem to indeed want a hybrid society borrowing from many ideas, but loud jokers like to scream at each other about how they want to ruin the world and kill everyone.

Spoiler alert: We're never going to be pure anything, so let's all shut the fuck up about it and instead do the impossible. Try to have a reasonable discussion and improve society.
