@noah_theninja@wmaxwellfryer@micah_erfan I moved out of upstate and yea I feel what you’re saying. But that state would say that financial services gives more wealth to the state than blue collar and factory work. So they give more importance to city people than rural residents, which isn’t right. But so is the inverse
@wmaxwellfryer@noah_theninja@micah_erfan Such an arbitrary category to separate different people in boxes. Imagine if we just didn’t fixate on differences of skills and vocation. We wet all just people and we all, as a cultural thing, try to understand each other and come to agreements that benefits all parties. If only
@noah_theninja@wmaxwellfryer@micah_erfan What if producers were literal machines. And all those machines were all owned by one person? I know it’s an extreme example, but does that one person count more than all the people they feed/serve? What codifies the fact that that one person owns all those machines?

@wmaxwellfryer@noah_theninja@micah_erfan You’re essentially saying there is a class of voters that matter more? Why? Who cares that the work they do is intrinsically valuable. That doesn’t make them saints or inherently better or more important than everyone else.
@wmaxwellfryer@noah_theninja@micah_erfan Again, who cares? Majority votes win. You’re basically saying that people who own farms and oil fields have more weight to their votes than urban people. I wonder if there’s an undertone there 🤔
@QuilliumB@Z16e31@PeterDiamandis I’ll give you some historical context. The Vikings are analogous to the “freeloaders” you’re referring to. Btw, I bet you’ll be one of those freeloaders anyway
@RabbitTrails@NH_guy9@rawsalerts No it wasn’t, my response was about me calling him a cuck, then you switched it up to asking me if I knew what a non-sequitur was. I’m not criticizing you for making a non-sequitur, so I know that I can’t judge. But neither can you, and that’s all I’m saying.
