FTL Discussion 2017 Week 46

Regarding Socialist Greg,

The bottom line seems to be that he’s building an app to help turn communities into little socialist enclaves. I don’t give a damn if the people who run those enclaves buy up a bunch of property and use his little program to create coins so they can live their collectivist little lives, but the minute they stick a gun in the face of someone who’s not under contract and tell them they have to pay, they’ve gone over the edge.

There’s something wrong with the minds of socialists that they can reason where someone is entitled to become a parasite off of others. The reason children are “entitled” to room and board is because the parents created the obligation when they created them. The way they earn themselves out from that obligation is to train them to take care of themselves or find someone else who will accept the obligation.

Greg and his ilk use the argument from pity (a logical fallacy) in order to contrive a responsibility on the part of the general public which does not exist.

Socialism is working great in NH. In fact, people might try and murder you for taking away welfare like Section 8 and heat utility subsidies there.

I wouldn’t doubt it. Socialism breeds an entitlement mentality and a warped sense of morals. I’m sure it’s why Greg can’t distinguish between voluntary charity and collective welfare theft.

It was great to hear Ian talk about the topless ban. I know many people feel it’s a trivial issue, but in my mind it’s unreal that a law can be made to grant certain permissions based on gender and if you fail to obey…to the cage you go! I thought we were all supposed to be moving forward as far as equality.
I play in a band and do my shows wearing nothing but pasties and a thong, and always bring up the point that I wouldn’t have to glue things to myself to be somewhat legal if I were a man. It’s not the most impressive form of protest, but I do manage to get people talking about the issue.

I’ve often found that heavily suggestive clothing is sexier than total nudity, but I totally agree… People should be able to wear whatever they want to.

Cryptocurrency is not fiat money, unless it’s (wait for it) FIAT money. It is HARMFUL to refer to it as fiat money, because fiat money is evil. The market determines whether cryptocurrency has value, not governments.

fiat money |ˈfēətˈfēˌät ˈmənē|
noun
inconvertible paper money made legal tender by a government decree.


Dunker, this is not a reply to you. It’s a reply to Johnson, who called cryptocurrency fiat money on the 11/14 show.
