First off, this was an honest question. Second off, who the fuck have I debated? Maybe others want to debate me but not one person has the addressed the heart of the question. No one person has considered what I'm asking. They go off on diatribes about capitalism is the same as greed or try to posture some other argument.
I have not debated a single person in this thread nor would I waste my time.
You asked "is capitalism the problem" and everyone unambiguously said "yes".
And even now, you're saying, "nobody answered the question because they haven't agreed with my assessment ๐ฃ"
lmao, get over yourself bud. Few here -if any- are on that 'capitalism would work if that was what we had' libertarian bent.
Did I disallow them their view?
I didn't even ask them to explain their position.
Fucking gatekeepers. The worst.
Lmao are you trying to debate me about whether you were debating people?
wtf does 'disallow them their view' even mean lol? Do you have that power? Woah that's crazy
This is a debate to you?
What else is a debate? Is the food ice-cream is a debate? Is a fedora a debate?
Let me know.
well certainly not where you 'disallow' someone of their view, whatever the fuck that even means.
Ok debate police. Thanks for stopping by.
