>>738621079Uhhh, that's extremely anti-semitic.
>>738621079the main difference between governments and bandits is that governments try to maximize long-term theft whereas bandits focus on short-term theft, so governments are more likely to make some reinvestments into their victims so that in the future they'll be able to steal more
>>738621079Perhaps the same could be said of all religions
The difference happens once you change from banditry, warlords, or dictators to a democratically legitimized republic or quasi-republic ("constitutional monarchy"). That marks the difference between a third party forcefully extracting money for their own benefit, and a people deciding to fund their nation by imposing usage fees on land and services.

>>738621565No, the government takes around $50,000 a year from me and I have not used a single service of theirs worth more than around $1000 or $2000.

>>738623490One problem that doesn't escape benevolent authoritarian governments is them being brittle during transitions of power.
>>738623659Unironically it is an upgrade, corporations have to convince you to give away your money instead of just ripping it out your hands like the government does while stockholm syndroming you about it.
>>738621814>”why should I support society when it doesn’t immediately benefit me and some assholes might take advantage of it”

>>738623764True, but one of the advantages of monarcy over typical autoritarian governments is that it eases the transition through heredity, with the son of the monarch spending his early life on how to rule. It has its own sets of problems and I could be sold on libertarian ideology, but if you have to give a ruling class power, it'd better be as clear as possible who has the power and who will get power next.

Not a single one of you is qualified to discuss politics on any level other than jews bad and feminism has made it so I will never breed. Talk about the games or post your fapbait but don't waste everyone's time with you /pol/ and bunkerchan hot takes.
>>738624109Hereditary might as well be a random selection of competence so by itself it doesn't solve anything, it might not even pose any problems immediately but eventually it will create them and that's where constitutionality is important.
>>738623914It's not about more or less, but which.A "we shot corporation CEOs if we get em trying to pass something that is bad for the public or try to make a monopoly" would work pretty well.It's even cheap
>”welfare le bad because it encourages people to be lazy and leach off the system”>”but also we need to subsidize corporations with trillions and allow them to pay fuck all in taxes because that somehow encourages them to create more jobs”I will never understand the mind of a libertarian
>>738624242Kind of, but the idea of a royal bloodline is that you can assure some competence by training a ruler from childhood. It works pretty logically most of the time, which is why royal bloodlines were mostly stable for most of history in several countries of the world.
>>7386237641. They are less brittle than you think due to primogeniture, or even just selecting an order of heirs while you are alive. It's a problem that is within our ability to solve.2. Democracies of transition of power problems as well, they are just ignored since democracy advocates are western biased. When you include global south democracies you will find they are not as stable as you would imagine.3. We all assume the object that must change is the human executive at the top of the hierarchy, however the entity that governs is different in different systems.Yes a monarchy has a transition of power when the regent is replaced by another human regent, but that is because the monarch is the central authority of governing: what they say mostly goes.In democracies, this is not the case, the highest position of power (the president or prime minister) doesn't have absolute power and so replacing them is not a complete transition of power.The democratic equivalent of a complete transition of power - similar to that of a monarchy - would be replacing the overt (political party) and covert (allied businesses, bureaucrats, and activists) components of the ruling force. As it is more diffiuse, you are unlikely to remove it all at once, leading to a mature, anti-fragile regime that can outlast any other human.In a monarchy, you wait a few decades for the monarch to die to get change. In a democracy the party and allied apparatuses can rule for a century, if not more.

>>738624361Sure, and you even have extreme forms of it like the Ottomans where the sultan would not necessarily select the eldest son. Even systems that selected more heavily for competence still suffered from a lack of it and corruption, though, and even those societies recognized early on the necessity of a contract with the people they ruled over with things like the Magna Carta.

Oh I get it, you think if the corporations are gone/neutered, that the government wouldn't devolve into an oligarchy immediately.I can't really be assed going into it, but basically you have no real say in what happens, ever.

Bandits, yeah. That's definitely something negative.But what if we talked about primitive societies and their tributes of resources to the chief of the tribe? You could definitely call the state a type of bandit, but the truth is that these things have been happening and even still do right now in primitive societies. I'm not even arguing for taxes or anything similar, but it seems like something that has been happening for a long time, even prior to a state being formed.

>>738624358>>”welfare le bad because it encourages people to be lazy and leach off the system”Exactly. Marx contended the capitalists would keep chasing profit until their whole system came apart in apocalyptic self destruction. That it wouldn't be sustainable and capitalists would still be trying to sell baubles as people starved to death in the streets. He thought this would happen within his own lifetime. In reality we see opposite happened. The capitalists at the very least have a system where there's sustainable input and output. The capitalist company can't continue to exist if it spends more than it makes. Profit motive keeps the system's lights on. The Marxists, in the name of equality and goodwill to all men, hand out entitlements. The system consumes itself by producing less then it gives away (via redistribution of the productive sectors to the unproductive) and in the end the Marxist countries were so hollowed out by investing perpetually in the unprofitable that they were forced to begin capitalizing their economies.

>>738625416>the capitalists would keep chasing profit until their whole system came apart in apocalyptic self destruction. That it wouldn't be sustainable and capitalists would still be trying to sell baubles as people starved to death in the streets.Isn’t that exactly what’s happening right now. And no I somehow doubt the government doing THE BARE MINIMUM to help its citizens is the cause

The hard truth is that there is no one solution. The fight against subversion and oppression is unending. No matter what kind of government or power structure (or lack thereof) you try to form, eventually the sociopaths will worm their way into it and start fucking over everybody. After numerous generations of this, the rot becomes so bad that the system collapses in on itself - or is destroyed by those whom it oppresses - and the cycle begins anew. The debate over this system or that system is largely irrelevant. At best, you should seek out a system which does not give too much power to anybody in particular, since that makes it harder to destroy when the time comes. But even then, a people in a different place will be at a different stage in their own cycle and may choose to use their strong state to conquer yours, making things even worse for your people.Humans spent nearly 200,000 years living a certain way, and then for the last 10,000 or so, we started living differently. It will take time to adapt. It's just hard to say right now whether that adaptation will lead to freedom or slavery for the majority of people. If slavery still results in people having lots of kids - even if those children are born as slaves - then things will go on that way, as natural selection doesn't care if you're happy, only that you are alive.
>>738625643>Hobbes was a misanthrope.Maybe, but who cares.>Communism doesn't work.Correct, but no one, including the social left wants Communism.>People are rational agents capable of making the correct decisions.False. People are influenced by changes in their environment and emotional state. If you can manipulate one of these two dimensions, you can increase the probability of people doing what you want. There's a grey area in choice where people can end up in an undesirable situation, where they would not have done so under different circumstances (ie: East Asian Employee Suicides).>There is no such thing as a primitive all-out anarchist war without the leviathan.Partially correct. It's an abstraction that can never be fully attained, like a perfect circle. That does not mean that the state of war cannot be approached to some level of accuracy.>Locke was right.No. He started with his own normative claims and then built the cognitive structure from there.>Capitalism works.Not really, because it's advancement requires breakthrough R&D that comes from governments trying to survive (ARPANET). Without government intervention in the form of anti-trust law, businesses will aim for gaining control over political bodies to give themselves an extractive advantage.Capitalism only works with a referee.

>>738626656Oh, that's what Bartre essentially tells Cath in their support. Damn, this is Fire Emblem.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ib_RH4nD2SY
For most of human history the distinction was simply that righteous authority came from Heaven, and bandits did not have that mandate. But then the Enlightenment came along with the notion of legitimacy stemming from the consent of the governed, but this ceased to be popular after the old order was swept away and the new order realized how problematic that idea was if you want to govern a large territory for any length of time. So now we're stuck in not believing in the concept of political legitimacy at all but sometimes acting like we do when it can be used to bludgeon our political enemies.
>>738626656Might determines the structure of cultures, ethical systems, laws, and beliefs but does not make them internally coherent or preferable for the people living under them. Also, if might makes right, then the progressive coalition is correct because they will absolutely destroy you if you became a real threat.
>>738626535I love my boomer parents. I'm in no hurry for them to die even though I will inherit multiple properties and a lot of liquid assets.
>>738624257Almost like the tree of liberty needs to be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants, or something.
>>738626656>"libertarians believe in might makes right">constantly harp on about the NAP>specifically talk about the state's monopoly on violence as their primary complaintcan't even strawman accurately
>>738626656I dont think anyone seriously subscribes to might makes right. Sure it may be a convenient explanation of why one group dominates another or why laws work or whatever, but you have to discard literally all moral reasoning and principles to believe in might makes right. None of our founding fathers talked that way or believed it. None of our legal institutions like the constitution would work with it.
>>738626835Tell me more about what you think of the age of consent.
>>738626705They were happier with uggo than they were hopelessly trying to get Chad to commit and getting depressed over getting nothing. Turns out that uggo gets liked by his wife after they live together and get through life together.
>>738626697one of the dumbest plot points in fire emblem and that's saying something.
>>738626747are you retarded? there have been plenty of successful societies where the leaders had legitimacy other than that of a "madate from heaven" and political legitimacy is a very real concept, its just diluted by the fact that we take democratic legitimacy for granted and everybody is too comfortable in their lives to question it
>>738626904mind you, karl marx was a pedophile
How some of y’all itt sound:
>>738626929They were happier in the sense that retarded peasants were happier so long as they weren't starving. Ignorance is bliss, but chasing ignorance as government policy is the fastest way to lithium in the water.
>>738627021>people are sounding like localizersJesus Christ, how horrifying.
>>738627001Merely the consequence of the free market working as intended.
>>738627021he might have had a point brehs
>>738621297>people deciding to fund their nation by imposing usage fees on land and services.You voting on fees lately?
>>738626937it's so hard to tank when everything is a ninja or archer that attacks from 2 range
>>738627036Cope, you can see that even today that women would rather stay at home with how their interests line up, but are forced to slave away while pretending that it's "liberating". Basically all biological and social data points towards women being unhappier because of retarded feminist theory subverting society.
how did this thread devolve into incel uggos wanting girls to fuck them
>>738626054>no one, including the social left wants Communism.The worldly utopianism of the social left has its roots in Marx to the near exclusion of every other philosopher. The social left simply cherry picks the social utopia from the broader socio-economic utopia of Marx. They spice it a little with current ideas of what constitutes social "good". >Locke He's right about his maxim that all government exists at the consent of the governed, and that old Greek thoughts about 'lmao just walk away' were outmoded by the time he was writing since the State's effective control was so deep into the frontiers by then that the frontier in the classical Greek sense no longer existed. >capitalism isn't capitalism because it's not anarcho-capitalismSmith isn't an anarchist. He's talking about a land tax from day one to prevent monopoly abuse, among other things.
isn't it interesting that statists have not come up with one justification for taxation ITT that isn't just theft?
>>738627139these spikes are stupid as well.
>>738627107Voting for people who vote on fees because turns out the system is nowadays way too complex for people to understand and vote on every issue.But we should have more direct democracy anyways.>>738627145Yeah I'd also like to stay at home, no one wants to workNow ask yourself what it means that they'd rather slave away for decades than put up with your ass.
>>738621297>and a people deciding to fund their nationI'm in Canada. My taxes go to giving children puberty blockers and giving the homeless unlimited naloxone
>>738627280if the 1-2 range guys don't move (for some reason) then you can just shove your tank in there
>>738627145No my fat bald friend you are the one who is coping. Women do not and have never wanted fuck you. They didn't want to fuck you in 50's and they didn't want to fuck you in the 1700's. They just didn't have a choice. Now they do and you can only seethe at how quickly you have become obsolete in every sense of the word.
>>7386272531. The universe has no god, physical rule that distributes property on ethical claims.2. Due to our mortality and ability to suffer, violence is a consistent variable in all interactions.3. Those who succeed at violence (but seizure and property defence) will end up owning property. 4. To reduce the probability of being on the wrong side of violence, you exchange some of the resources you can gather to someone who will deter that violence.It's a subscription service.
>>738627352Well, turns out you can't force the rest of the country to go along with your personal destructive agenda.
I LOVE my Little Cyan Sword Kitten!
>>738627352>This is what retards actually believe
>>738627286>they'd rather slave away for decades That's where you're wrong, all data shows that they absolutely despise slaving away and would rather settle with uggo despite feminist ideologues trying to rewire women for at least half a century.
>>738627280>>738627379Why are you even bothering?
>>738627512bored
>>738627492If you were correct, they'd just do that. The option still exist. Women can still marry and be SAHMs.Sadly, reality doesn't line up with your "studies".
>>738627492>all data shows that they absolutely despise slaving away and would rather settle with uggoAll evidence points otherwise. You wouldn't be so mad and incel if it wasn't.
>>738626802Given time, all systems corrupt and form meshes of influence and all that shit, and you have to weed it out.
>>738627556>they'd just do thatThey can't, they have to work their asses off whether they like it or not, all the while they're constantly getting told to hate men (not just uggo, but also Chad).
>>738627553She's supposed to be way flatter than this
>>738627670This is cope I'm afraid.

Retards have no idea that in history, merchants often paid bandits specifically because they made an effort to keep their trade routes clear of bandit competitors and animals that could cause a threat. It was an investment. They attacked you if you didn't pay them, but were functionally an escort group if you did.
>>738627929that's the last of them
>>738627224>The worldly utopianism of the social left has its roots in Marx to the near exclusion of every other philosopher.>The social left simply cherry picks the social utopia from the broader socio-economic utopia of Marx. They spice it a little with current ideas of what constitutes social "good".A mutation of a worldview isn't the same thing as the original. Just like Islam takes a lot from Christianity, Intersectional Social Justice takes from Marx without being Communism.>He's right about his maxim that all government exists at the consent of the governed, and that old Greek thoughts about 'lmao just walk away' were outmoded by the time he was writing since the State's effective control was so deep into the frontiers by then that the frontier in the classical Greek sense no longer existed. I still disagree, as it is a post-hoc justification. If a government has not fallen yet then it can be argued from this framework that it has the consent of the governed, even if it is genuinely sadistic.>capitalism isn't capitalism because it's not anarcho-capitalism>Smith isn't an anarchist. He's talking about a land tax from day one to prevent monopoly abuse, among other things.At that point, we are just talking about markets, which can exist within any political structure. Unless we are willing to cede that Capitalism existing in all civilizaitons with markets, currencies, and prices, then we have to be more specific wtih the term.
>>738627993>why don't you guys want to play trash instead of the peak of the series?Huh
>>738621079Kill yourself waste of air
>>738628092obviously they have a wane festival
>>738628150Fire Emblem threads are either, coomslop, /pol/slop, or autism.Take your pick.
>>738628075They were functionally thieves who preferred not to actually have to do anything to steal
>>738628075>Have to pay them extortion money so that they "protect" youSo, just like the mafia?
>>738628121you say this to literally every game that's not gba
>>738628121the conquest and shadow dragon relays died though
>>738628347Nah, just to Tellius, Gaiden and 3H. Any other game is worth playing
>fire emblem thread has a better political discussion than /pol/we should do religion next
>>738628403Genealogy was not very good tbqhwyf
>>738628403so you'll play an engage relay?pwomise?
>>738628507FE is one of the few pieces of media that portrays the medieval era Church pretty accurately, actually.
>>738626660nope i'd rather stay here and make you shit your panties

>>738628507I know a decent amount about Judeochristian religions.
>>738628562>one of these on the map you recruit takumidid they know?
>>738628507No. I see enough tradlarper vs fedora shit already.
engage relay, but we kill all guys
>>738628562Engage sounds good, yes. The usual problem with that one is that people keep screwing up the emulation, though.
>>738628643Thats just a normal relay though
>>738627021The man who got cucked to death
>>738627021He sounds like an incel
>>738628693Not really. The normal relay involves a lot of spite killing other anons waifus.
>>738628835Nah, that never happens. Honest mistakes, all.
>>738628605he switched over to slow weapon to avoid double reverse WTD
>>738621079Does the bandit use the money to build roads and other infrastructure for me to use?Fucking retarded LOLberterians
>>738627352It's crazy that you actually think this is real lmao. The same as Americans who are like "I AINT NO COMMIE SOCALIST MEDICINE TOO EXPENSIVE!!!" (While the USA spends more on healthcare than every other nation and it is the only nation where people die in medical debt lmao)
>>738627021>yfw your wife screamed "Camus" when you came inside her
>>738628562No because I would kill Yunaka and Hortensia as soon as I got the chance and the thread would melt down.
>>738621079https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stationary_bandit_theory
>>738628116>A mutation of a worldview isn't the same thing as the originalNo but your analogy is wrong. A Protestant Church is still a Christian Church, even though it's not a Catholic Church. The social left is in near totality a reduction of Marx. So yes they aren't communist but that's a red herring. >post-hocIt's not post-hoc. The argument is "the state is". It's infinitive. If you accept revolution is possible, then the only logical explanation for continuity of state is consent. The philosophical dissents surrounding Locke usually deal with manufactured consent, propaganda, is it really consent when the State manipulates the people, etc. But in a strictly formal sense, his maxim holds. >that's just marketsCommies take arbitrarily broad or reductive definitions of capitalism when it suits them.For my purposes the "father of capitalism" speaking about legal checks on corporate power in his treatise is a reasonable enough source for me to say capitalists aren't anarchists.
>>738628875yo S on rinkah i decided to give her mercenary. sol mage funny. stacking seal res with personal and merc +3 enemy phase can make even her small magic deal big damage sometimes. the only problem is that sometimes sol will pull her out of personal range but oh well.
>falling for any -ism
>>738621079Not a fan of how this was phrased. Because that's not the point being made. Especially when she goes on the talk about her village getting burned down. It doesn't connect. It's really about burden. The war cost her village. So the difference between bandits. nobles. whatever. wouldn't even matter.
>>738629190Yes, Sol is totally gonna screw up her personal skill and she kinda doesn't need it, most enemies will do single digit damage to her. But Strong Riposte ain't bad in Birthrout. Axebreaker could be kinda funny, push zerkers down to 0 hit rate while using a tome. They're one of the few enemy types that can sting a little.
>>738627489>>738628958This. Do not believe your lying eyes comrade.
>>738627183What do you mean? These are the /feg/ulars
>>738625935You didn't answer his question.
Why do these Fire Emblem threads always have some retard showing their game progress that nobody cares about?
>>738629819He did. He has energy for this issue because he can't get laid because of it.
>>738629902He's our punishment.
>>738629902He's a schizo but I look at his pictures.
>>738630084Our crime was not that severe.

>>738630673>furries are autisticwoah... mind blown
>>738625909How is bombing the middle east, subsidizing israel, and data centers that increase utility costs making my life better?
>>738630758Don't worry, he uses a ton of them. He just doesn't realize it because if there's no bureaucrat telling him that he is now interacting with the government, he thinks the status quo is just "normal" and not something that people have to work to maintain.
>>738630881Data centers? Bombing? Israel?What does this have to do with Fire Emblem?
>>738630903>wants all the benefits of society but gets very mad when he has to pay for themmany such cases
>>738630841You’re notStop paying taxes and live in the woods
>>738629902cause it's funny
>>738621079you say that and then you drive down the road and hit a pot hole that breaks your whole wheel off and start wondering how come the roads aren't maintained and then you call the ambulance because you got injured in the accident and wonder why they charge you ten thousand dollars for a ride to the hospital
Hit rates in this game are fucking garbageIts weirdly refreshing
>>738630841You father signed it for you in your mothers cunt.
>>738631019Ok but that's how it is already and I do pay taxes
>>738621079Bandits aren't supposed to and have no intent to trying to keep things safe in exchange for it or using tribute money for any common good, you retard.
>>738631004Lethe has better taste than that
>>738631019We need more money for missiles to bathe in the blood of brown children. Please understand.
>>738631076No it isn't child. Be quiet.
>>738630998>Get chased down innawoods by the feds for daring to not be extortedKek
>>738631076that's because the rich aren't taxed, and you aren't taxed enough either things will only get worse as long as people continue seeing taxation as theft
>>738621079The state is supposed to be someone you trust who looks after your mutual interests in the nation and protects you from violence
>>738631057>Ever using ThunderDogshit tome, spam Fire instead
>>738631193It is theft. No amount of semantics will change that.
>>738631168If you live in a country where you can’t get off the grid it’s your problemJust change countries
>>738631227well enjoy your potholes and collapsing infrastructure then
>>738624749>m-my ideal government lives in canada y-you wouldn't know her
>>738631193>you dont understand! we might be 48 trillion dollars in debt and growing with a budget of 7 trillion+ annually, but if you just paid your fair share you would get to have roads!>also state taxes
>>738631227it isnt theft, get out the country if you dont like it
>>738631193Coerced by threat of violence and imprisonment >not theftok bootlicker
>>738631310just one more tax hike browe're just about to achieve social democracy, we just one more
>>738631215Lilina does exactly enough damage to kill with Thunder. Fire would be worthless in this instance.
>>738631407>magic stat that lowSkill issue. Train your units better.
>>738631310Well ideally you'd also elect a president that isn't a slave to Israel.Probably the toughest part of the equation.>>738631378Just one more tax break bro, we've almost paid off the crippling national debt we just need one more!
>>738631275I pay my taxes and the road to work has had unfixed 5 foot wide potholes for 3 months. Of course, they have plenty of money to spend on "underachievers" while not fixing the roads.
>>738625643The harsh truth is that neither communism nor capitalism work.
>>738631443>>738631215You are a retard.
>>738631515Capitalism lifted hundreds of millions of of poverty and starvation around the world and the invention of synthetic nitrogen by fritz haber exploded the world population by like 5X. I'd say capitalism did a fine job. We have more obesity than famine in America.
>>738631275A private road company could maintain roads and either charge a toll for driving on them or charge commercial land owners to connect to their road. In any case you end up saving money.
Rich people never pay any tax yet get all the exclusive government benifits Middle class and poorscum pay a huge amount of tax but barely get anything in return
>>738631464That's because you also need the elites to not instantly transfer all tax money into bulldozer purchases that then get shipped to Israel for free so that the IDF can level more Arab villages in Lebanon.Taxation by itself is not enough, you need people that actually care about the country to run it.
>>738631740>charge a toll for driving on them or charge commercial land owners to connect to their roadi don't want to do either of these or pay taxes to the nigger worshipers in the government THOUGH
>>738631641>look up synthetic nitrogen>made in nazi germany>wasnt even synthetic nitrogen btw it was ammoniayay capitalism?
>>738625956The line needing to go up is the result of government ponzi scheme like social security. A free market can tolerate economic decline better than any other system.
>>738631641nta. >Capitalism lifted hundreds of millions of of poverty and starvationand created a billions more in extreme poverty>synthetic nitrogen by fritz haber exploded the world population by like 5Xone of the greatest accomplishment of humanity
>>738631771Ok well solve the latter first before you start stealing more money k thx
>>738631641>the invention of synthetic nitrogen by fritz haber exploded the world population by like 5X. I'd say capitalism did a fine job.Remind me why this is supposed to be a good thing again. For millennia the world population was well below 1B, then it got crazy in the 20th century. What is the point in all these humans existing? It's not like if we didn't have 10 billion people, 10 billion people would be suffering. We just wouldn't have so many fucking people.Capitalism has just made billions more slaves.
>>738631790>>738630990
>>738631753
>>738631740in that case enjoy your tolling booths every mile and traffic jams out the ass Those companies run a business and that business needs to turn in profits somehow.
>>738631790Then fuck off to woods, oh wait you can't because the government won't let you.
>>738631880benefits such as ???
>>738631853Be the change you want to see.
>>738631641Capitalism has major benefits (my main example would be allowing Ford to feasably create a buisness off cars), but be careful to not mistake technological/scientific progress with capitalism.
>>738631842Extreme poverty and self-reliance was the status quo for millenia. It wasnt created by capitalism
Capitalism is great if you aren't poor. I'm not poor. I'm a NEET from a wealthy family. I laugh at your shit tier wage cage lives.
>>738631976So true, the poor live amazing lives under communist rule!
>>738632005this but unironically
>>738631886The tolls will be less than taxes and will pay for a thing I actually want.
>>738631976Every government is great if you're not poor, you can brag about being rich just don't be retarded too.
>>738631916Predictable emotional response, as expected. You can't possibly justify all these people existing, when humanity got along fine before. It's insane - a dragon eating its tail. This synthetic nitrogen you mention - apparently it has extremely destructive effects on the environment. Why kill the planet so billions of poor people can exist to grow cocoa beans and make Nikes for obese Americans? You utter nigger.
>>738631976You have cheap airlines to fly you anywhere in the world and you can book those flights for like 100 bucks on your iphone hours before departure. How are you suffering?
No communist society would have ever created Fire Emblem desu
>>738631886>More jobs>Can easily be optimized>Demonopolizes roads, allowing people to not congregate to cities>Funded to be used so that it gets more money, therefore it will be higher qualityI fail to see the problem.
>>738632108Is that a point in its favor or against
of course, its always those greedy capitalist "pigs"4chan is okay with capitalism as long as its not the "juice">>738632048>>738632005people often conflate totalitarians as communism.
>>738632107>technology is capitalismBad timing on the argument when an airline company just went bankrupt like 5 days ago
The smelliwood days are over, Roy shut down PheraeAID and destroyed a hostile enemy civilization
>>738632053no, the tolls will keep getting increased arbitrarily and they will pay for private yachts of company owners and provide payouts for shareholders as the road crumbles because you have to use it anyway since there are no alternatives
>>738631924And who do cars benefit? Why do we always assume every bit of progress that has infested our lives has "improved" them. I fucking hate having to drive to Walmart to buy basic living supplies. There's nothing in human biology that says we need motorized vehicles for mass consumption.
>Socialism is significantly more popular with women than with menProbably because it makes so much sense!
Communism is just resentment, envy, and the melanin enriched desire to kill people and take their shit.
>giving free money to a "landlord"fuck off
>>738621079taxes are fine if they're used properly to maintain and expand upon public infrastructure or public programs. however when they used incorrectly, like say the government starts a war at the behest of a foreign body that regularly bribes all of our officials that only result in the loss of control over a region and insane price hikes on some of the more valuable resources we need to function, then she's pretty spot on.
I don’t think this is a Fire Emblem thread.
>>738632150I mean yeah, my biggest complaint about modern capitalism is the effect it has on the culture and demographic stability on countries.I don't think left wing economics is the answer but I don't see what's wrong in calling out what I see issues with.
>>738631886You know toll roads already exist that just take a picture of your license plate from raised camera and then send a bill to your phone right? Its not even any less convenient than a regular road.
>>738625214>Maintained and built by private companies that bid for retardedly expensive government contracts>government contractsSo in otherwords, owned by the government you retard
>>738632108This>Has the freedom to display the virtues of medieval society, including nobility and the church>Made to be fun so that it sells instead of fitting the party line, giving us handsome guys and pretty girls being cool>Portrays the ones who put down despots and cults as great heroes
>>738632295Fire Emblem posters have a wide array of interests.
>>738632295It was supposed to be but sometimes the cover topic takes off
>>738632005I'd have a flat I'd actually own under communism provided by the state for basically free probably better than being a homeless drug addict under capitalism

>>738631853You dont like sharing the internet with 2 billion indians and chinese people?
>>738632228Nope. The tolls would be subject to supply and demand. And in the worst case scenario, I could always just tell them all to go to hell and start a new life out in the woods. My city's roads are falling apart and this past winter they refused to spend my taxes to plow them leaving me and thousands of other trapped in our homes. And if I decide to fuck off to start a new life in the woods, the government will murder me.
>>738632456fuck off coomer the thread isn't your playground this time
>>738632408>police are chasing me on I5>take the premium tripleA offramp to iguana street>they have to take the business class highway lane which doesnt have an offramp for another 2 miles
>>738632260Basically everyone? Personal transportation used to be a complete pain in the ass, with your best option being an expensive ass horse or wagon, with which you'd travel so long to get anywhere that dysentry was a threat. Cars are also absolutely huge for trading, since they don't need rails and can therefore deliver cargo just about anywhere where it can roll.
>>738632408>when they go out of business Sounds like they'd deserve it if that were to happen, that's what they get for making a road so shit that no one wants to drive on it.
>>738632296>it has on the culture and demographic stability on countries.>its okay as long as im not sufferingthis is whats wrong with the world. the whole system is just broken, no hard feelings capitalist pig, i just want to see what the world would look like with the world economic forum

The vast majority of car owners drive their smoking hunk of death-metal - which requires monthly payments for years to own AND monthly insurance payments forever (by law!) - no further than their commute to their wage job, which underpays them.Most people shouldn't own a car, if you think about it. But you didn't get that choice. It was decided for you by rich bastards decades before you were born. Every human born before the 1920s, who didn't have to tether themselves to a piece of shit car, literally had better lives in this one respect, at least.
>>738632649I just want more public transport
>>738621297Most of your taxes goes to repaying national debt i.e. inflation from printing money i.e. bankers
>>738632096>humanity got along fine before!Nigga there were two world wars and atomic bombs bracketing the Bosch-Haber process. And then there was half a century of proxy wars between two countries with enough bombs to erase eachothers civilizations right after that.
>>738632096every cat poster is a retarded tranny. no exceptions.
I talk to her, then proceed to beat the fuck out of her to get weapon experience, then steal her lock picks, then lock her in a vulnerary heal loop, to then continue to beat the fuck out of her (usually with roy). Then let her get out of there. She becomes so buck broken she joins out of submission.
what is the real reason that healthcare isnt free in the USA?
>>738632917I don't need to believe it, I can see it in effect. I can easily visit family that live in remote regions by simply driving to them, and I can easily see several trucks doing deliveries to several regions while driving.
>>738632995These are all a symptom of the same cause, industrialization. I'm not sure what your point is. Everything that happened starting in roughly the 1800s has been a fucking mistake and we're now reaching the end-days and making our planet uninhabitable as the price of our greed.
>>738632926They actually go to the assholes that own health insurance and pharma companies
>>738633126did you know that you don't have to pay hospital bills and there is literally NOTHING they can do about it? i've never paid a single medical bill in my life and those fuckers still have to treat me when i come in
>>738633141Did you ever consider that your family wouldn't live in remote regions...without cars? You would all live in community, and be better off? As it was for most of human history? Goddamn, dude.
>>738633157Chill out, Ted.
>>738633126Same reason why healthcare companies can charge you admission and are legally allowed to deny you life saving treatment.Capitalism is a failed experiment.
>>738633230cant they seize your assets?
>>738633126The real reason is that the US healthcare system has been patched over with enough quick fixes and stopgap measures that you could reasonably argue that becoming more public payer or more free market would be an improvement, and a movement to either draws backlash from the other movement since it would hurt those who rely on the stopgap measures.
>>738633234>dude just live in a primitive camp trust me
>>738633314You assume he has assets.
>>738633234I don't like my family. They're a bunch of hateful old mummies. I like my car. It gets me to pussy and everything else that makes life good.
>>738633314nah they just ding my credit but jokes on them i ruined my credit years ago taking out large loans i never intended to pay kek
>>738633126We have a very old population. The average age is like 46 or something. I choose to believe one look at the demographics of the country would scare anyone straight. Of course, if you told boomers that you were taking away their free healthcare like medicaid and medicareC they would all be goose stepping in the streets for single payer healthcare. Also we have this insane pharmaceutical industry that gives children and teenagers drugs with insane withdrawls that keeps them customers for life like SSRI's. You cant even quit those cold turkey, its worse than alcohol dependency.
>>738633234No? There's some of my family who live in their remote home town because that's where they established themselves there while the other part of my family moved out. If it wasn't for cars, there'd be no easy way to reach this part of my family.
>>738621079 taxes is cash (not real anyway) tribute to bandits is in cum (actual cost of living in the most literal sense)
>>738633412Here's a thought. We just tell the boomers to go fuck themselves because keeping their decrepit asses alive for another 3 years is literally killing our futures.
nobody tell this guy about the ducks in his park>>738633230
>>738633126Healthcare is never "free", they just usually hide the costs. Fun fact: healtcare in the us used to be cheap as hell before the government stepped in to "regulate" it.
>>738633157I dont disagree about overconsumption and the other gay stuff you are talking about. It's just that you said a really stupid thing about humanity getting along when the earth was less populated
>>738633485There's too many of them and they actually vote in every election.
>>738633190No, they don't. Quite literally 20% of taxes go to repaying *interest* on national debt. Not even the principal balance. Just interest.
>>738633126Most people are happy with their private insurance.
>>738633485Sure but you actually have to go out and vote for it, old voters are the most consistent voters while the youngest voters are the least.
>>738633530You are the most retarded of retarded cattle if you believe that actually occurs.
>>738633516It used to be cheap because anyone who needed it couldn't get it. That's what they regulated it. It's easy to make cheap insurance if you make sure you never have to pay and kick off anyone who looks longterm expensive.>>738633530>20% is mostwe got a math genius here folks
>>738633328I mean, of course you would say that now. Our brains and bodies have been ruined by corn syrup, pills, and smart phones, so there's no going back. Most of us are fat as fuck and mentally unwell with bad teeth and weak jaws and all kinds of cancers. We have plastic in our bodies. Another piece of bullshit humans didn't have to deal with just 100 years ago.I'm not saying there was no suffering in the past, I don't know how the final calculus comes out, but you don't feel skeptical about the Great Human Project at all? Shit just seems wrong to me, every time I ended up in one of the few wooded areas near me that hasn't been totally decimated for a parking lot, I realize we must have gone astray somewhere.
>>738633526>>738633559No I mean we literally just ignore their asses and tell them to die already. What are they gonna do about it? Hit us with their walkers kek
Worthless thread
>>738633485I quite like the boomers I know, but as a generation they were so easily swayed and led down the primrose path to national decline. I wonder if zoomers will be viewed the same by whatever the next three generations are.
>>738633587You should read up on history, you'd be surprised by how much regulation inflated costs for healthcare in the US.
>>738633587>20% is allretard that's just the interest kys
>>738633597>Most of us are fat as fuck aspeak for yourself
>>738633587>be insurance company>forced to take people that will for sure dip their fingers in the pot, like not even a potential thing, you know with certainty that they will take out more than they put inI was going to keep going, but insurance is a scam anyways, im not defending them
>>738633697It literally is all. No one's even trying to pay off the principal. So that's not a hit on my taxes.

>>738633745Whether you personally are or not, most people in developed countries are medically overweight or obese. Something is WRONG here. My thesis is that capitalism or industrialization or whatevery ou want to call it brings evils with its goods, maybe more evils than goods.
>Look inside what I assume to be a Fire Emblem thread>Get really confused

>>738633745something like 20 million americans over age 20 are severely obese bmi>41
>>738633638What’s new?
>>738633759That was in response to insurances taking healthy people on, then kicking them off once they stopped being healthy. You'd be fine for a broken bone, but if you got cancer? Insurance cancelled, lmao get fucked. They were cheap by offloading those longterm costs on the public.
>>738633842If you're unable to understand that, the problem is likely that you're a product of the american public school system. As a result, you're functionally illiterate. Sorry you have to hear it here.
>>738633828porn thread next, trust the plan
>>738633818>>738633845its all that ketchup, I dont eat that garbage so ive managed to stay slim
Would socialized medicine actually be better? For example, I know of a case where someone was in a hospital for a year and the total bill would be about 7 million USD. Now if you take into account that most people make maybe about 50k a year and work for maybe 40 years that means the 1 year at the hospital for this person was 3.5x the lifetime earnings of the average person.
>>738634080Now ask yourself why it cost seven million dollars to keep someone in bed for a year.(It didn't, you were just billed that much.)
>>738633904ADS
>>738634080the mutts are really dumb. with all their money, and powerful enforcement agencies, they can collectively bargaining for cheaper health care. but they rather have the pharma gouge them because muh communist/socialism, its like its their no-no word
>>738633597This is just fucking FACT. Its obvious to anyone born before smart phones that they are highly addictive and disruptive tools, borderline dangerous devices. I wont soap box too much, but theres gonna be billions of people that just dont understand that they are the anomaly in history for growing up in such a profoundly unhealthy and overly social society. >plastic inside of my testicles and a sperm count 90% lower than every ancestor I've ever had is the new normal chud, what do you want to live in a cave or something??
>>738634334The only reason the EU can have free healthcare is because daddy america foots all of their military expenses howeverbeit
>>738634080I don't think it would be overall better but it would be more politically acceptable than the worst case scenarios in our current system.Longer wait times (and the problems that result from them) suck but people can just see it as part of lifeBut million dollar bills and people launching go fund me campaigns to pay for care are terrible from a PR standpoint, something you have to admit even if you are against socialized medicine.
>>738634416sure anon, blame EU

>>738634569he literally doesn't have to pay it
>>738634413>Its obvious to anyone born before smart phones that they are highly addictive and disruptive tools, borderline dangerous devices.I genuinely fucking hate them. I hate pretty much every "good" smart phones have introduced. They've been shockingly bad for society. I own one but refuse to download any apps, and only use it for phones and basic internet browsing. It's the one piece of tech that has made me question all technology. Because as much as I like computers and vidya, they have always been a part of my life, so I can't decisively say whether the world was better before them or not.
>Arguements are so intense that the entire thread is locked onto themKek, ig it's to be expected from FE bros. all our practice from arguing about vidya is showing results.

>>738634764That's what the americans tell themselves to feel better about having to spend for endless war in the middle east and the most expensive healthcare system on the planet without even getting good care unless they're rich anyways.

Government funded police are great as well when reporting someone shattering a window by throwing stones and call back 30 minutes later because they can't seem to input an address into a GPS and follow it, and end up never arriving or contacting back. Great usage of tax money.
OH NONONONONO
>>738635945You'd fold like a cheap card table after a month without all the government services you take for granted or don't even realize you enjoy.

Yunie thread!
>>738625691Only if it's Maniac mode.
>>738636043>The bandit will generally leave you alone after you pay himOr he will come back knocking for his income, that is if he doesn't kill you and take everything instead. That's how mafia works.
>>738628328If you were a merchant you were going to get raped regardless. That's why they hired guards even during times of peace. Every single person wants a cut of the pie if they can get it.Paying bandits usually protected you from not only other bandits, it reduced the amount you needed to spend on guards (if anything at all) once you became a regular. The mafia exorts because they have a monopoly and they could survive even without extortion money, though they obviously wanted it. Bandits usually didn't have any of those luxuries and ended up turning it into a black market business
