I'm not saying violence is the answer, but I do believe he deserves to be strapped into a machine that just slaps him in the face constantly
I dunno, historically speaking, violence has often been the answer.
Maybe it wasn't always the best answer, but it certainly is effective. Just ask the French!
I never said it wasn't the answer either 😉
People don't like you to know this but the revolutionary war was very violent. What did the revolutionaries want anyway? Representation. Hmm. I wonder if there is a place that has an underclass that has increasingly less representation in government.
Did you stop learning French history when you hit 1789? The French Revolution didn't really work out so great in the long run. Napoleon took over within a few years.
Yes and Napoleon used flowers and sunshine and bunny rabbits to take over, didn't he?
Then shall we talk about the French experience with the Germans?
I said ask the French about violence because they are more versed than many in how it had to be used.
You said "violence was the answer" for the French, and I was assuming you were referring to the French Revolution. It was definitely not the answer for them. Pointing out violence committed by Napoleon doesn't really help you
You're incorrectly framing my statement about the French as only pertaining to the Revolution in scope of removing poor leadership. I was talking about violence in general, hence "...it may not be the best answer."
And I don't see how Napoleon sets himself up as an emperor without violence. It was certainly his answer, until he fucked himself in Russia, anyway.
I feel productivity rising already and am behind this initiative.
I feel something else rising...
I've got a raging clue!
I have a throbbing inkling!
Maybe we can gamify that a little. Every time a worker-bee completes a task, the machine delivers a slap and a photo to the worker. We can collect them like sortie markers on WWII bombers. Boss gets feedback on how productive his employees are, and employees get to compete for points.
I am. It's class warfare and they're already firing shots at us. Well past time we started fighting back.
Is it violence if its automated?
