Lazzies-Faire Anarchist, Shit-Talker, Armchair General

If you think my advocacy for freedom is extreme, that says more about you than it does about me.

[CapnPipsqueak @Capn_Pipsqueak]

I am a libertarian.

That means I want a fair and equitable world. And what I mean by that is everyone is free to find the best way they can serve the needs of others, and be served in turn.

I am an anarchist.

That means I believe the best way to do that is without a state.

@RockChartrand With the laws that he's broken, the fact that he's not wearing an orange jumpsuit is proof enough he's part of the political aristocracy.

@RockChartrand Who wants to take bets on how long until the words "socially necessary" are mentioned?

@probablytired2 The basics of rocket science are honestly not hard.

Combining all the basics to get the rocket going where you want it to without it blowing up and covering everyone in fire and the most toxic materials known to man is the hard part.

@soraisquirky @JeffAllen329818 @frogNscorpion @TheLeadHound @BleedingGumsArt You severely underestimate the German desire for bureaucratic completeness.

@ReviewsPossum POV, you ask someone building an argument on a single statistic for some contextual data:

[CapnPipsqueak @Capn_Pipsqueak]

@ReviewsPossum "More men need to be working!"

Okay, what jobs?

For what pay?

And are they even going to be hired?

Is the application process run by an AI agent that is going to reject 90% of people because they didn't lie and copy paste the job advert?

Is HR being run by wombless harpies?

@Jhumbertop2 @PROMAKOS_ You're describing hyperbolic fiction, not satire.

[CapnPipsqueak @Capn_Pipsqueak]

@AlisDekay Marxists be like "communism is the dialectical endpoint of capitalism" and then screech bloody murder when people advocate for free markets.

Like, motherfucker do you even believe what you say?

[CapnPipsqueak @Capn_Pipsqueak]

Honestly I think a lot of this is over-sanitation and lack of exposure.

When was the last time you saw baby food with gluten in it?

The immune system and microbiome play a massive role in allergies and intolerances.

Cuando VALVe estaba al borde de la quiebra y Gabe Newell fue a pedir ayuda para lanzar Steam, el 99% de la industria le dijo que no, que perdía el tiempo. No fueron una o dos empresas. Fueron todas. Lo cuenta el propio GabeN en el documental del 20º aniversario de Half-Life 2.

Ahora esa misma industria llora porque quieren parte del pastel que su propia incompetencia y arrogancia les impidió ver.

Excepto VALVe, nadie pensó a largo plazo. Nadie se jugó la empresa y el patrimonio personal contra una industria sin visión. Nadie apostó por tratar a sus clientes como personas.

Por eso CEOs como @TimSweeneyEpic y compañía se la pasan despidiendo gente en masa mientras buscan nuevas formas de exprimir y abusar de los jugadores, en vez de construir una comunidad de verdad.

Steam no es un monopolio. Es la recompensa por hacer las cosas bien cuando nadie más tuvo cojones.

@AlisDekay @Nomanalive76472 The problem is that the modern neoliberal culture tries to simultaneously guarantee infinite future growth and also bubble wrap everything in a social safety net which actively strangles that very growth.

[CapnPipsqueak @Capn_Pipsqueak]

@AlisDekay @Nomanalive76472 But it does *produce* infinite growth. If we tried to build the same amount of houses and offices we have today with the technology that the richest European monarch had a century ago, we'd run out of both trees and land long before the task was finished.

@INwl @Khorne_Flakes78 @LavenderGhast Your argument is identical to people who torture math to try and predict the date of the apocalypse.

Stop embarrassing yourself.

@WinksTheBiker I don't care about lane splitting, but where I come from the merge stars when the roadworks become visible.

It's a limited throughput anyway, merging at the cones won't make traffic move faster.

@dannycantalk @jeffersonation1 The neoconservatives have been running interference for progressives for years.

[CapnPipsqueak @Capn_Pipsqueak]

@Howard58855 @BlackDumpling I haven't seen that myself.

Granted I'm from Australia, where water is more precious than gold, so anyone trying to destroy a dam is likely going to get lynched.
