    Can't you keep track?
    Well, I treat you accordingly, or have you not noticed.

    My proposals were utterly ignored for days. If your entire goal is to sea lion the shit out of something, I will also treat it accordingly.

    Considering I'm carrying on more than a half-dozen concurrent conversations, I think I'm keeping track just fine.

    It’s not... it’s a game of who will admit to this bullshit... I did... he continued to try further shaming... still didn’t work... so, now he is done. Yet, I’m mad... jeebus...

    You are projecting... do you know the difference between being mad, being blunt and being facetious?
    Yeah, you got me... I am now in fear of you shaming me further... don’t forget, I also hate personal liberty and I hate freedom of all kinds... just keep going
    Ranting about how it’s all a shame tactic is the perfect way to convince people you’re personally affected. Couple that with the sarcasm about hating personal liberty and freedom of all kinds. You’re doing a terrific job making the opposite case.

    Thank you for the clarification that you’re not mad.

    Ah, so you're trying to teach me a lesson by ignoring the questions that would explain your arguments. Brilliant move.

    I never once sea lioned, I explained why I was asking these questions. That you are unable to bring your point across is not my fault. I mean, you have to carry more than half a dozen concurrent conversations because of exactly that reason. Your inability to explain shit.

    There is no case to be made. Machismo tried to be as wrong as possible about everything from the start. He was impressively successful at that.

    There's a difference between not explaining something, and being misrepresented in that explanation.

    Great, then what was so complicated about those positions and their explanations? It took forever for you to understand something as simple as not increasing spending for 5 years.

    Yes, because when I explained how BLM and PP are competing with lobbying from corporations, the poster did not give a fuck. Neither do you... Keep trying to shame me though... it will work any minute... lulz...

    Nothing, that was why I asked, you made simple demands and never explained what they would lead to, who profits, who loses, hence me asking about their impact which you either ignored, never explained, or just repeated the demands.

    What was your answer when I asked you about liability of an individual in a corporation? You won’t answer because you don’t like where it leads...

    What was your answer when I asked for an example of an individual lobbying? Sheldon Edelson lobbying through a PAC...

    Nonsense... absolute nonsense...

    Once again, the data was provided,and was fairly easy to figure out. Thats why I questioned why you were trying to demand I belabor explanations of the obvious.

    Answering one question is not answering the other questions.

    You try to keep it simple, but these things are not simple. We're talking about millions, hundreds of millions, maybe billions of dollars suddenly not going to corporations that built their basis or parts of it on them. They have to fulfill contracts themselves which leads to other corporations missing out because you came up with a simple proposal that starts a chain of events in the name of liberty and freedom just so wealthy people and corporations can keep their influence. Funny enough, influence you also criticize them for.

    None. Punk Rockers and Anarchist and Libertarians really don't have that different a politics. Ultimately they are defined by either a direct love of Markets or a commedified consumer choice and branding.

    Let me make it real simple...

    Corporate PACs receive funding from corporate profits.
    BLM and PP receive their funding from individual donations.

    The only reason why BLM or PP need a PAC or lobbying, because otherwise they won’t have a voice. Treating lobbying as bribe, removes the disadvantage none profit organization face, against companies that measure their lobbying versus the saving it would result in.

    On top of this, corporations already dissolve personal or individual liability, because they incorporated. That’s the whole point of being a corporation... to not take on the liability as an individual.

    Lobbying in no way, shape or form... helps BLM or PP... just compare how much corporate super PACs spend to create wedge issues like BLM or controversy over PP. There would be no controversy for BLM or PP to need to even lobby, if it were not for the corporate arm pushing said controversy, because they can’t win on corporate tax cuts alone.

    Look at Trump... His campaign was mostly attacking BLM and things like PP... who paid for that? Why does PP and BLM need a super PAC, for a manufactured battle, paid for by corporations?

    Yeah, Punk and Anarchists who oppose any sort of strong hierarchic structure versus libertarians who think the free market solves everything and that the rich should own everything.


    Yeah, totally the same.

    I specifically chose simple things, because the entire point is compromise, and a willingness to not always get what you want. otherwise, you have no cause to complain when the other side does the same thing when they are in power.

    Even worse, for someone like me, the revenge-style governance means that liberty is attacked each and every time.

    I'm well aware that many rely on the government, which is exactly what I'm trying to stop.... to the tune of about 2-3% a year. That really isn't that much, when it comes down to it.

    Punk is a genre of music that largely died in the 90s, what they are for or against doesn't matter. Like any music scene, most are for getting laid and listening to music and buying merch. Punk is just "People who various hair styles, patches on a jacket and buttons and tattoos." its a consume lifestyle brand. Anarchists could be anything, AnCaps, AnComs, you know various flavors of whatever. AnCaps for example believe the are the ultimate Libertarians.
