I didn't advocate any position besides that violent revolution is improbable. Is the improbability of violent revolution a neoliberal concept? Do I ignore worke

  >Do I ignore workers when I state that discussions around police obesity are not grounded economic discourse? Well it's not economic discourse at all, it's political discourse. >Is there any universe in which this conversation leads to a reasonable place? You're against the conversation in general? It seems that you think discussion of inequality leads inevitably to the idea that we should engage in violent revolution. If that's the case maybe violent revolution is the most reasonable place.

    What exactly do you have a problem with? You want discussions of inequality to center around police obesity more? Or did you perhaps not know that the order of comments can change? I am literally pointing out that the top few comments were centered around violent revolution and police obesity. I'm not saying "inevitable slippery slope", I am literally describing the content of the first few comments at the time. If your conclusion from this is that violent revolution is the most reasonable then you just wanted violent revolution in the first place. And no, this conversation didn't lead to a reasonable place, seeing as you're now here saying that I, because of a hacker news comment, am justification for violent revolution.
