  • But what if it was?

    Russia would quite happily kill zelenski given any chance and when peace does come, with Putin left in power, I guarantee you that he’ll try to assassinate zelenski at the first possible moment

    Sorry, but not sorry, Putin is a legitimate target and if killed might end this war (not to mention make the world a little better even)

    Let them kill Putin, I only see upsides. This has nothing to do with him being Russian or whatever, this is him being a megalomaniac dictator who loves murdering people all the fucking time. How many people have been assassinated by now in Russia? How many outside Russia? Putin is a fucking menace to anyone, he needs to go







  • So when are we finally going to stop this, stop the billionaires?

    We need laws that put hard caps on ownership and personal wealth. Nobody should be able to have a net worth of over, say, 10 million dollars. Any income over that should be taxed 100% until the person goes below the 10 million line

    We done even need different economic systems, capitalism works well to generate wealth, that is fine, we just need to put rules on where that wealth goes.

    With taxes, that is a simple fix.

    Imagine if you will, if nobody can be worth over 10M, and companies het similarly capped at, say, 1 billion.

    You have a company worth 1 billion? You can’t have a single owner because of the 10M cap. You’ll end up with many ay more smaller companies or bigger companies with loads of small share holders. Companies can compete and grow but the perverse incentives of endless growth would be gone. Companies can finally focus on the end consumers again, and make better products

    Meanwhile governments get a huge tax influx, that can be used to fund independent investment foundations that help new startups with funding and professional help to get your new company started

    That tax money could be used as well to fund free healthcare, free education, maybe even universal income. We could eradicate the poor.

    People could stop focusing on survival and start focusing on living and loving.

    I dunno, there are loads of details missing, of course, but this sounds like something doable.





  • I know try pnianalow but god it’s so annoying that he has to die so slow. Go faster dude hell is waiting for you, and you know it, you said so yourself.

    I really don’t wish anyone dead but I do wish for a better world. Since trump has objectively made the world a worse place, I can’t wait for the world to return to at least some form or normal where we try to be better instead of trying to be “more for me”

    And the girl is the reason why feminists have such a bad reputation

    Just don’t be a dick and treat everyone equal and with respect and we’ll be fine.

    Now watch the down votes come in because I said that everyone should be treated equal and with respect and that the girl was wrong.
