      The original said some lib shit like “should pay for 94% of everything”.

      No, billionaires should not exist and have chosen to let others starve while they hoard wealth. They are monsters that must be eliminated.

      There are no good billionaires. They wake up every morning, look out at a world of suffering people, and decide they like it this way.

      Ya but it forgets about heirs. They are a problem that needs to be addressed too

    Ditches are important infrastructure to remove waste water. A specialized hole for the cause will provide the same functionality without ruining public property.

    Two things I learned about Castro yesterday:

    1. "Castro was known for working long hours and he primarily woke up late-rarely before ten or eleven a.m.-and started his working day around noon and would work until late at night, often only going to bed at 3 or 4 am."

    2. "[H]e was repetitive and obsessive. In discussions with his colleagues or foreigners, he would repeat the same things over again on a continuous loop until they were convinced he was right. It was absolutely impossible to contradict him on any subject whatsoever. Anyone who attempted to convince him that he was wrong or even making a suggestion that it could be improved slightly was making a "fatal error". Fidel would then make a mental mark of the individual as an "idiot", and would wait for the right time to retaliate against them."

    Folks, Castro was a top tier shitposter.

      Honestly though, as frustrating as that attitude may be to deal with on an interpersonal level, and how it can lead to issues with regards to personal blind spots, it's much better to have to deal with that than to have an uncommitted wind sock of a person who changes their stance every time the wind blows and always shares the opinion of the last person to whisper in their ear.

      Obviously if you want to take this approach and be successful it helps to be correct, which means you are taking on the burden of careful and rigorous study. And it's not like Fidel could never be moved in his opinions or convictions. His evolving stance on Religion is a good example of that.

      Overall, I'd give Fidel a rating of "Based"/10.

        Yeah, and he revised his opinion on homosexuality as well. Somewhere between recognizing the good parts and then discarding the bad in a continuous process of evolution or development where the good meets the bad. I wonder if any German philosophers have thought of this idea and then it was applied politically somewhere? :curious-marx:

        Make the billionaires fight and the winner gets lead into a “victory chamber” where they are then also shot.

    Hottest take: a few of them need to be kept alive for interrogation, the enhanced kind.

    Sorry but I can't allow any of you to throw the Bush crime family into the hole until I have thoroughly electrocuted their balls.

    You know, in Minecraft. Always in Minecraft, we just love talking bout video game here folks.

    Killing people is bad.

    But are the 1,300 folks really people in a legal sense?

    I'd argue these people are actually more like nation states, and sanctions and crimes against humanity would definitely be applicable.

    I'll give it a go. My dream is that they are put to work in a call center in one of those suburban grim office parks in a suburb where they are yelled at every day by their boss and have to eat lunch at TGIF Fridays. They then go home to their drab one bedroom apartment and watch network television

    I firmly believe that they would consider this far worse than death
