Ask the Shakya about that one. Or the Kalinga. Or Kosala. Or any of the victims of the Asante slaver state. Or anyone Meroe didn't like. Or the Libyans during the Egyptian Period.

It's not so much a hot take as "conservatives literally always hijack sound principles with purposeful misunderstandings of them"

If you want to be a good conservative commentator, take the style of every single argument, with no substance.

Remember this gem?
http://pmli.it/articoli/2015/20151015_scuderiletussupporttheislamicstate.html

quote:

An immense gulf divides us from the Islamic State in the spheres of ideology, culture, tactics and strategy, and we do not agree with all its fighting methods, actions and goals. But we have an essential point in common—the unwavering struggle against imperialism. This point at the moment transcends any other difference that may exist, and it is the pivot of our de facto anti-imperialist alliance.
Alliances are made with the forces currently on the field, regardless of their characteristics, ideologies and strategies. These forces are as they are, we cannot shape them as we see fit, after abstract models. They depend on existing circumstances and on the main contradictions in a certain moment.

Isn't "economically free" a codeword for what you can get away with if you're rich? Being able to use literal slave labour seems pretty high on that list.

That's pretty much how the list he had was generated, yeah. But it being posted by a guy who constantly argued that income taxes were literal slavery made it particularly rich.

yeah thats pretty good


"Economically free" can mean a lot of things, but its root is always "I want to use the positive connotations of 'freedom' but not any of the ways that a human would normally mean"

I'm really curious what the endgame of this thought is. Like, do you really wanna go down the path of telling people they have a moral need to change who they are attracted to? That's not a smart move in this current climate.
