I asked you what would be different under your preferred alternative to capitalism and you've responded with policy from other capitalist nations. Perhaps the ideas you have presented are not solutions to capitalisms failings but instead just good ideas that can coexist within a capitalist society. I'm really not sure I understand your point but feel free to clarify if you'd like to continue the discussion.
Actually professor I don’t much care to continue. I asked if all the cards are on the table (because I know they’re not) and you responding with “yes…?” so this isn’t going to go anywhere. Especially since I don’t have a favorite -ism to provide you with so you can tell me how it would never work!
The ideas I’ve presented force cooperation in opposition to capitalist market forces. They coexist in the way my white blood cells coexist with the flu.
By the way, the Panama Papers aren’t available to the public, and they’re culturally relevant because they were secret for so long, and represent an opportunity that isn’t on the table for the rest of us. Better examples are key when upholding the status quo 👌
I apologize if I offended you or otherwise indicated hostility with my "yes...?". I felt my position was clear and unchallenged by your reply. I'd also point out that you made assumptions about my opinions prior, which while it didn't really bother me, could certainly change the temperament of discussion.
I do think it's important to have a clear point in a debate though and I don't see that you have presented one. From what I gather, you value cooperation in society and disagree with pure capitalism. For what it's worth, I actually agree with both of those points and feel the same. I'll respect your wish to leave it here and wish you the best of luck.
It's almost like capitalism just means that people exchange money for goods and goods for money and everything else is up to people to decide.
Chiming in to a conversation with a weak point, just to have no one respond to you.
No wonder you haven't made so many comments today. This poor troll is starving because he's having a hard time getting people to take the bait. Anyway, see you tomorrow buddy. I hope for your sake you do better next time
Thanks for responding, noone.
It must kill you that I have a laugh about you to the people you argue with here. Hey man, no one is making you respond with all these little love letters to me
Your ghoulphrenia is amusing to say the least.
Proud of that word? It's cute how you keep using it like it means something.
Anyway, keep validating me by responding. Every single time you do, it's like a little chirp proving that you can't help yourself.
I hope you're having as much fun as I am.
Ghoulphrenia is a condition that you suffer from, it's normal for a ghoulphrenia victim to not be aware of it.
You must know all about that, considering narcissists go through the same thing.
Anyway, I don't tend to take medical advice from self-professed assholes
Tell us more about narcissism.
There's a case study right here. Your inability to ignore me says more than I ever could
Ghoulphrenia patient begging for attention asks me to ignore him, talk about mixed messages...
Don't I recall you trying to call me out for making fun of mental patients yesterday? I guess your ego knows no hypocrisy. You're a man of no principles, and that's what makes you a good troll
No you don't, like a typical ghoulphrenic, you just made that up.
Gaslighting doesn't work on a public forum, mate. But then again, you'll say literally anything to feel like you're winning. I like that about you
I would feel bad to be winning against a ghoulphrenic.
Hey man, you're the one arguing with who you think is a mental patient. What does that say about you?
You could leave at any point, but you can't stand not having the last word.
I'm not arguing with you, sister.
Right, you never argue with anyone. Because you can't remember what that word means.
Good troll. Stick to your guns
Yes I never argue with anyone and that's just a solid fact.
Hey man, I appreciate you practicing on me. You could do a little better though. Is "ghoulphrenic" the only insult you could muster after 10+ comments?
Come on, hit me
Ghoulphrenia is not a matter that anyone would insult.
Ooo, flip flopped back to respecting mental patients. Not exactly an insult, and pretty weak bait.
Try a little harder. I know you can do it.
Hey buddy, I really love that you're using a made up word to boot. The only hit "ghoulphrenic" got on any search engine I tried was an off brand 4chan Incel chamber. Nice to know what media you do consume.
Man, god made you a perfect little troll didn't he?
Which word wasn't made up exactly? Ghoulphrenics sure are interesting specimens.
You can't read the comment you directly replied to? You know, illiteracy would explain a lot about you.
I don't read ghoulprenic posts.
But you reply to them every time like clockwork. You must really like me
I mean, also, you just read that one. Kinda inconsistent huh?
Oh wait let me guess, you don't remember that?
Seetherald.
Stonewall me baby. It's how I know you're losing it
It's funny, you're stuck on one insult. You're losing your edge, buddy
