The socialists and the government

The socialists want the government to do everything for them. They want the government to control how they give birth, how they raise their children, when they work and how much they get, and whether they live or die. You and God decide your fate, not the government. You are all mad.

That is absolutely NOT what we want. That's not what we want at all. Whoever told you that is a liar.

@MethDozer You want the state to look after you and everyone else, to decide your futures. What do you think you want?
MethDozer · M
@emiliya that is incorrect.

@MethDozer How can it be incorrect? Am I in school? Is this a test?

@emiliya have you ever heard about Anarchism? Not all socialists are Marxist-Leninists.

@basilfawlty89 Do you mean have I heard of anarchism? I have heard of it. What about it? I don't believe in stepping on anyone or changing anything. Who am I to get rid of the government?

There is no freedom in political ideology. Only an inexperienced 12 year old would think their names and definitions are important. They aren't important. Moreover, there is always hierarchy in the natural world.

@emiliya You're incorrect because you're pushing an incorrect narrative with an incorrect statement.


. You want the state to look after you and everyone else, to decide your futures. What do you think you want?


Incorrect

@basilfawlty89 “You're arguing people should have rights over others based on how majy pieces of paper they've accumulated through others hard work.”

Where did I argue this? I have not made an argument.

@MethDozer Why don't you tell me what is correct?

@emiliya Okay what I believe is that private property and rent seeking should be abolished. Natural resources belong to the people. Landlords are thieves, and industry should belong to those who operate it.

@MethDozer Natural resources belong to no one. People take them, and they always want more; they want to expand and get bigger.

What is your issue with private property? A home is the place that shelters us. Humans live in tribes and have families they want to provide for. If you aren't part of their tribe or family, they don't want to provide for you. Why don't you create a commune if you want equality? It can work in small groups.

@emiliyapersonal property and private property aren't the same thing.
A home and yard are personal property.
Private property is property held against trespassing for the sake of rent seeking profiting.

The resources of the land rightfully belong to all of the people who inhabit the land.
