Yep. Followed him over from Cracked.

You still think that the rioters are "freedom fighters". Remind me again who is it that begs for mercy from "freedom fighters"?

[Pendant]

You've never seen a bad person beg for mercy?

Tyrants. Normally after all their bluster has run out and they're surrounded by the consequences of their actions.

[LegalLoliLover]

Because living the American dream is totally an act of "tyranny". These rioters are literally acting like the common bandits of the fantasy genre, harassing merchants and disrupting otherwise neutral society, and you still treat them, like heroes. I repeat, that bounty hunting is a perfectly legal profession. Someone just needs to bring themselves to put the leaders of these things on a wanted list, with a cash prize, of course.

This is a lol. Mostly unrelated to the above, btw.

casually neutral society that kills you en masse

I don't recall those merchants killing anyone, at least beyond self-defense. To say nothing of the civilians being literally harassed from their homes.

So now he's trying to get his own supporters to do the thing he said was going to ruin the election? Is he hoping he can get it thrown out if he shows tampering, even though it's tampering in his favour? Or is he just that desperate for votes?

[Pendant]

He's just being a normal Republican.

[Twelveseal]

Lol, seems like he's desperate for votes, but also just being a dumbass. He doesn't seem to think people will be able to vote twice, he's just obsessed with his supporters absolutely getting their votes counted. By any means neccessary. I don't think he's intentionally asking people to break the law. He's just dumb.

Isn't the crusades more about pillaging legally from the Muslims using religion as an excuse?

It's pillaging in response to Muslim pillaging since they did try to take over Southern Europe.

Thieves stealing from robbers and robbers stealing from conmen.

I like your implication that being a businessowner automatically makes you into a bad person.

[Pendant]

I was speaking in general terms, but yes, specifically that is the case as well.

This feels really smooth brain for a leftist, tbh. Communism requires that ownership of the MoP be held by the working class/people... which would by extension make all Communists bad people as the owners of said businesses.

Consider clarifying the position?

Production of goods and services is fine, what I don't like are markets.

I don't think a single mother who owns an small store can be considered to be the owner of a market.

[Mattias]

She is if it's a grocery.
