    I’m inherently a capitalist. I own a business and employ people. I’d be put in a gulag for that in the Soviet Union. Having said that, whether wealth inequality is moral or immoral isn’t the concern to me at all…that’s ivory tower discussion…but how we respond to and address the negative effects of wealth inequality are absolutely considerations drenched in issues of morality, imo.

    If you were sincere about informing others you wouldn't just link a random book. You'd at least highlight the relevant parts and explain it on your own words.

    Bigtexxx spewed:
    1. Joe and Hunter Biden should be in jail. Who can honestly say that the payments from China and the Ukrainian energy company were not purely for influence peddling, rather than Hunter and/or Joe's merit? Corrupt as hell.
    2. It's not a coincidence that Trump was indicted the same day the House committee was able to see some of the evidence on Biden's corruption. They wanted the media to bury that story quick.
    3. Joe Biden is no longer capable of critical thought. He's just too old and has lost his mental capabilities. Vivek Ramaswamy nailed it - this isn't a problem for the democrats, but rather a feature. It allows unelected bureaucrats to run the show. That is certainly not what our founding fathers envisioned.
    4. Kamala is simply a low IQ individual who the democrats have rightly kept out of the public view, and for good reason. She's got the job because she's half black.
    5. Joe Biden's exit from Afghanistan should have gotten him tossed out of office. A global embarrassment, purely driven by Joe's incompetence.
    6. Joe Biden's southern border crisis should also have gotten him tossed out of office. They apprehended 3.5 million people since 2022. How many have they not apprehended? The illegals are not just the traditional Hispanics from Mexico, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Honduras, etc. They're coming from Afghanistan, African nations, China and more. The world knows the border is wide open for anyone. And who benefits from this? The Mexican cartels who are raping women, demanding huge amounts of money from broke immigrants, and trafficking humans. It's disgusting, and Biden is simply allowing it to happen.
    7. Ukraine - Europe should be ponying up way more money to fend off Russia. Germany f'ed themselves by becoming too dependent on Russian natural gas - despite Trump's direct comments to them at the UN - which the German delegates laughed at. Their showing during this battle has been shameful - they, France and England should be footing the majority of the bill for this. On another note, I doubt Putin would have attacked if Trump were still president. With the incompetent, weak, senile Joe Biden in the White House, it's open season for Vlad.
    8. "Former men" who are now transgender females, should not be competing in women's sports. It's just not fair. Ask Caitlyn Jenner - she's got perhaps the best position to speak on the matter, as Bruce Jenner was a medal winning Olympian. She's opposed to it. I don't see how this is even up for discussion.
    9. The liberal policies of California have turned it into a homeless, drug infested cesspool, whose residents are fleeing. I had to step over human schit on the sidewalk in downtown LA on the way to a meeting recently.
    10. The woke nonsense is finally catching up to the left. The Bud Light and Target disasters will hopefully put a lid on the out of control corporate virtue signaling.
    11. Elon buying Twitter is huge for the free flow of information - big tech can no longer control the narrative. Elon is no right winger….he voted for Biden and has perhaps done more for climate change than anybody else on earth. He recognizes that the media and big tech are running free speech into the ground. Free speech is critical to the world.
    12. Hate in today's society comes from the left. They are intolerant of others' opinions. From firing people who wouldn't get a covid vaccine (even though natural immunity has shown to be very effective), to cancel culture, to violent antifa/BLM, to stifling free speech through big tech - all from the left. I reject hate.

    LOL, enjoy the city of hate. You'll fit right in.

    A. The Trump admin ordered the lockdowns
    B. Biden’s Covid policies were some of the most relaxed in the globe.

    These are terrible examples and is undercut by the fact that it was Trump leading the US during the lockdowns. Also you previously have claimed you are a German citizen. If you really are German you must really hate your homeland where the Covid policy was much more intense.

    If Trump/Biden’s Covid policies dictate the US as being classified as autocratic on this basis alone, then literally every country in the world is by definition autocratic.

    Your attempt at whataboutism is lazy as hell.

    The lockdowns in some Democrat-led states were worse than the ones in Germany (which were bad). The leader of the Democratic Party was Joe Biden.

    The USA were the only country in the world that instituted a federal mask mandate for toddlers on airplanes. Biden kept that going forever, even after he had declared the pandemic over.

    You really are trying hard to stretch here and it’s honestly kinda sad.

    Again… the leader of the GOP literally tried to overturn democracy. Citizens United was a Republican ruling on the courts. Overturning Roe was a Republican decision and policy.

    You just aren’t going to whataboutism your way out of this argument by inserting a conspiracy theory that Joe Biden was trying to take over the world because of some mask mandates at cafes in San Francisco. You live in Florida dude… nobody at any point ever told you to put on a mask.

    Just so whiny… lord

    Because they have a great governor. When we moved to the US, mask mandates were still in effect in other places (Democrat-led places).

    Libertarians completely lack the ability to see any situation beyond their own.

    It’s not surprising that political/social ideologies align with personality traits.

    There are inherently more selfish ideologies…. “Bleeding heart liberals….”

    Its a mixed bag but I do agree. Conservatives do tend to lean into their religious judgmental attitudes, cherry pick the extreme, label and group the whole as if they are personal disciples of satan. Ive been guilty of this in the past and trying to do better about it.

    I am very intolerant of those who participate in the 'you disagree with me in letter so therefore youre the worst version of my enemy' attitude. I am not a fan of the religious dogma that is continue to spread among the fringes of both sides.

    I do agree with ATW's view; A leftist and liberal are not necessarily the same.

    People saying Kamala Harris only got the job because she is black might want to ask why Dan Quayle and Sarah Palin got the job.

    44 out of 45 US presidents were chosen because they were white.
