Feminism and Triggered

Way too many ""feminists don't understand the difference between "real feminism", AKA "ACTUAL EQUALITY" and "internet feminism", AKA "intense and unnecessary hatred against LITERALLY ALL MEN". This is coming from a girl of the internet age.

Meanwhile, you drive on roads, send your kids to public school, have law enforcement that is properly trained and equipped on the local, state, and national levels, enjoy parks, and have the protection of one of the world's most powerful military forces and most influential foreign diplomatic forces.

And you complain when anything goes wrong with any of these necessary things, because you feel entitled to them. BECAUSE YOU PAY TAXES.

But yeah, taxation is theft. Sure.

Or at least, people usually don't joke about it without also actually believing the punch line.

Enh. Funny is hard.

Can’t take things too seriously on here. Some people post blatant in-your-face political stuff. I do too sometimes but usually with an element of humor. This one is a variation of something a friend of min posted on Facebook. I know he doesn’t think taxation is theft. But you don’t know me so I guess you have no way to tell how serious I am.

Just have fun.

Sure, let's just sit here and PRETEND that we aren't being heavily over taxed.

I said nothing about how reasonable or unreasonable taxation rates are - just that taxation itself isn't theft.

That's theft. You are being FORCED to hand over money that you will (mostly) see no benefit from. If you refuse, you're punished. If I go to enjoy some of the things my money helped pay for ( camping on funded land, nature park, etc...<-- one example) I am charged AGAIN at the gate. That's theft.

You really have no idea how much your tax dollars buy, do you? You are extraordinarily privileged to live in a country that has a protected power grid, working infrastructure, a government that is still capable of functioning when the president is an idiot and Congress is dysfunctional.

You don't want to pay taxes? Don't live here. Either that or become a billionaire. :)

People like you are the problem. You feel like going along with every whim of our government is what makes you a "Patriot" when in fact, history has proven it's the other way around. If you honestly believe EVERY dime that you give to the government is being applied towards benefiting you, then therapy is what I advise! Maybe you need to do some googling and look up "The Million Dollar Outhouse" just to get the ball rolling. You are being robbed and you seem happy about it! Smdh. BTW, it doesn't matter who the president is or who controls the Senate or the House....THEY ARENT THE ONES ROBBING YOU! #smokeandmirrors

Finally, something we can agree on! ;)

My point is that all the things you have listed are still achievable ( and were) before the passing of more and more allowed taxation. It is painfully obvious that it is now a product of greed and no longer used for the greater good.

I'm religious, but yeah, a lot of people use it to justify their ignorance.

Sorry if I insulted you. I know quite a lot of smart religious people. But it's the religions themselves that exist solely on the limited knowledge of their followers(especially Abrahamic religions).
2 ups, 5y
No problem. I'm only slightly religious anyway. I believe in God and Jesus, Heaven and Hell, that's about it. Not even the Bible TBH.

You contradicted yourself a lot, here. Wouldn’t capitalism mean that people are not enslaved by the government? Are you an anarcho-communist?

In anarcho-capitalism, yeah, people wouldn't be enslaved by the government, but because capitalism's evolution to corporatism is inevitable, it would mean they'll eventually be enslaved by the corporations, which will ultimately grow into one gigantic,monopolic,empire-like corporation (and that is what I meant when I said that capitalism is synonymous with greed).

Anarcho-communism is an oxymoron in my eyes. Communism requires the existence of the state. Anarchy opposes the existence of the state.

I consider myself a pure anarchist. Not this ancap,nor ancom shit that people manage to come up with,but anarchist in it's purest form. Government in any form is slavery and tyranny, it can never give freedom, and anything good that it gives was stolen from someone else. That is all.
1 up, 5y
I kind of agree with you on anarcho-communism, and I don’t think it has ever happened, before, in history, but it would still be possible if the entire community agrees to work for each other; the problem with that, obviously, would be that not everyone can be trusted to do that, and either people realize that trading is a better system, or an authority emerges to enforce the labor. Since socialism go in between capitalism and communism, your definition of pure anarchy sounds like my definition of anarcho-socialism. And anarchism-socialism would still require some of the state to enforce an economy that provides certain services.
In anarcho-capitalism, the free market prevents corporations from becoming monopolies, since most monopolies are products of subsidies, which come from socialist/communist government. No entities would exist to prevent other corporations from overthrowing monopolies.

And yet another one: Braylon_Meyer_damp_crusty and illiterate,labeling,braindead f**k.

Read the last line. I agreed with the meme. I agree that taxation is theft. That goes against socialist ideology.

And read the parts when I said that government is slavery and anarchy is freedom. Socialism and communism require the existence of the state and government. Something anarchy opposes.

Just because I'm against capitalism doesn't mean I'm a liberal nor a socialist. It just means my brain is working properly.

I bet you're yet another conservative hypocrite who thinks he's so much better and smarter than liberals. Sorry to burst you bubble,but you're both braindead, and are programmed to be braindead.

And please,if you intend to reply again,read the comment I wrote a few times and think about what you write,would you?
