Then what do you call Ctrl+P to infinity? Capitalism?! It's a centrally managed economy that chooses winners and losers. With a splash of lawyerism and highwaymen.

This is the problem with isms. Great in theory, but never what is actually going on.

In a black and white universe, everything looks either black or white. It's a nice story we tell to deceive our children. Who then grow up and are supposed to be the adults in the room.

So tell me more about this socialism and capitalism. Or how we are the good guys. And how our brilliance is necessary for the continuation of the universe.

If you said white people, sure ok. But capitalism?! We've never experienced capitalism.

You argued we don't live in a socialist society. Which is a typical argument by those schooled about the fallacy of that capitalism exists.

Laid out what we actually live under without isms, besides indulging in using the term, lawyerism. You are trying to argue economics. As am i.

Usually neither side dares to describe reality and instead each side just repeats their favorite theory from public school textbooks. I just described what my lying eyes see.

so you're a grilling centrist?

[–] logging_strict@programming.dev 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

What the hell is a centralist within the context of OP's topic? The folks just observing and doing nothing no laughing no photos? People who took car that day?

Is there such a thing as a centralist? That's like saying, "somewhere on the line". Whereas if you look at my comments i'm everywhere on the line. Trying to imagine how to advocate a centralist viewpoint but coming up with nothing.

maybe this will help: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrism

basically, a "centrist" is someone who has a middle ground in positions. seriously!
