Specifically allegro of the cave, if i remember correctly...
You think freedom is obsolete at this point, and i disagree. Its no biggie really, and I dont think you are uneducated or stupid for buying into that idea or any of the states nonsense.
Our current wealth gaps don't equal something closer to slavery than freedom to you ??? - when combined with money controlled politics and agendas controlled by apac and the top 1%?
It's just crazy you all mention allegro of the cave ---- idea that we are IGNORANT of our situation because we are trapped in the ideas of society. Now, I guess I'm moderate, cuz I'm not liberal... I usually agree with the 'conservative' points more often... However, you stance on capitalism, specifically American brand of capitalism is foolish. It is our current system. It is what we are used to and it's what traps and enslaves the masses. Our social economic systems are the CAVE. We were born into this shyt. We (overall ) are in a worse position every generation that passes, because after each generation that is MORE people who are born into a world staring at the cave walls. There isn't a system or form of slavery that is more dangerous than mental slavery disguised as freedom and painted as Land of the Free. Our of all people on Earth we are some of the least likely to change the set up. We may never fight against money in politics... we may never fight against wealth Gaps. Even people who speak about socialism and talk and cry about a political and economic balance are so mentally comfortable that they began to believe that
some of the Shadows are an illusion and even liberals like @
Poitier would be going insane if they didn't grow up on the plantation.
However, you're absolutely right about appeal to authority... liberals have no case outside of that and u made a good point with Thomas Sowell.
Also, the only reason capitalism pretends to care about social responsibility is because indirectly it leads to profits. When money is the Only motivation then responsibility to society isn't possible.
