so you're acknowledging that our current political/economic system has built-in inequities? that playing by the rules is not a virtue in and of itself, especially if the rules cause harm to others?
- DennisP 5y agoI mean, it obviously has inequities, so yes.
- ertjaet 5y agoand if it has inequities, we should strive to eliminate them, yes? shouldn't someone who benefits from those inequities be obligated to help those who are harmed by them?
- crocodiletears 5y agoGP is drawing a comparison between the mindsets of two groups, not trying to litigate the morality or efficacy of different policy prescriptions. The Ben Shapiro-style pedantic logic funnel thing is a bit of a non-sequitur in this context. Best to toss the showmanship and make your point.
