Which side is the peasants? Is it the one with the Mangione Enterprise heir with an ivy league education?
Idk if Atlas is shrugging but I sure am.
I'm sorry, did you just flex Ayn Rand in that argument? That is some permafrost-level irony.
Its not my fault the hail corporate philosopher takes are aligning with your cult of personality ideology.
Rebutting with a logical fallacy isn't exactly helping your position, friendo. 🤦🏼♂️ That tracks, though.
Skill issue if you couldn't parse it.
lol this is legitimately cope
Yeah I was absolutely devestated by the argument they presented "your words not make sense to me".
Skill issue that you can’t spell devastated correctly. Skill issue that you’re always mad online and everyone you interact with can immediately tell you have sub room temp IQ
Yes clearly from your response the upset one is me, myself.
Hey, man. Don't worry. One of these days, you'll get it. It's cool. Law of Averages, right? I mean, never mind that you're far closer to the Law of Big Numbers at this point, but, someday, surely. On a long enough timeline. ^Maybe.^
Did you write for the uncle in Napoleon Dynamite, or is that just how you do? You've got your wolf suit on, struttin', and all that alpha vision of the real Truth®. Yeah. I see you, we all do.
Well, except you, but that's the whole story right there, innit?
Hot Take
Napoleon Dynamite was extremely well written and had lots of very unique concepts and highly developed characters hidden behind the surface level embarrassing stupidity humor. I also liked that they expanded upon a lot of it in the cartoon followup series.
Kitten, don't purr. Otter don't play that shit..
Sorry did you want me to stay on the topic of you not having any point to make and also having shit takes on a lot of different media? Get us back on track for me.
Oh so you’re just a total piece of shit damn
Yes, it is. Because he gave up all of that to take a stand.
What’s the other side, though?
Fuck if I know. The luigi crowd will do anything to make it look like theres some coordinated opposition making them the victims.
And fuck if you don’t? Fucking LOOK. What does the Luigi crowd stand for? What’s the CEO stand for? Profits over health? Whose health? Do you think? Or just follow your McDonald’s ass fucking gut feeling?
“Luigi crowd?”
Please, make some fucking sense of it for me so you don’t make me think you’re a moron with no thoughts. I don’t want to, you’ve got to have some fucking basis for this shit, right?
Atlas shrugged off idiots trying to mooch off technological gain that made VALUE that was worth money. The fuck are you shrugging off?
Luigi crowd stands for murdering people you don't personally like and getting away with it.
The CEO stood for exactly what the CEO who immediately replaced him stands for.
Nothing changed because of Luigi. He's basically an Anarcho Capitalist who doesnt believe in democracy and instead thinks we all need to police our neighbors with deadly force. Here's an idea, if you have to kill somebody over the state of healthcare then next time kill the people getting in the way of you having free healthcare: Republican Senators.
He may as well have killed a McDonalds Employee in protest of their corporate office. In fact, his cult almost tried to kill an actual innocent McDonalds employee, too.
Actually, quite a lot changed with Luigi, but as that’s been discussed on Lemmy all over the place, forward and backward, ad nauseam, we’ll skip it here.
What I’m finding more fascinating is you deriding ‘murdering people you don’t like’ in the first paragraph, and in the third paragraph recommend killing Republican Senators.
I was never a moral absolutist. The context and results are different.
Those are diametrically opposed statements, though. Or are you saying murder is fine if it’s someone you don’t like?
I’d also point out that, if you’re judging from results, killing either a corrupt healthcare CEO or a corrupt politician would probably be equally practical. If you’re judging from morals, I’d say they’re also equal.
Anything is permissible if the outcome is good, but you can never operate under uncertainty or on a plan which does not have any clear results.
What Luigi did had no good outcomes and therefor it was just murder, he should bear the weight of his actions instead of run from them. Even if the person he killed actually had some positive impact, such as killing a Republican Senator, I still think the person responsible should face charges head on.
told ya folks, big mad 🐸
