Excuse you?

Excuse you?
- Dracophoenix 4y agoYour statement is a rephrasing of the old Marxist slogan "[F]rom each according to his ability, to each according to his needs". How is that not enslavement to others merely for being more able?
- guerrilla 4y agoThe burden of proof is on you since you're the one making the nonsensical claim. How is helping people in any way slavery? That sounds insane.
- Dracophoenix 4y agoIn your ideal world, can people refuse to "help" or would they be forced against their will? If it's the latter then that is slavery.
- guerrilla 4y agoNo, that's just something you must have hallucinated, because it's clearly not something I said. You're arguing with spooks. Turns out anarchists aren't really into states, let alone states forcing people to do anything. Maybe prejudice as a mode of inference isn't that valuable after all. Who knew. Don't you dare put "help" in scare quotes either. People are starving and they need help.

Turns out anarchists aren't really into states, let alone states forcing people to do anything. Maybe prejudice as a mode of inference isn't that valuable after all. Who knew. I concede that I've likely taken your statement the wrong way. > Don't you dare put "help" in scare quotes either. People are starving and they need help. Which people are starving? Where? How did they get into that position? Whenever I hear the word "help", it's for some pet project that is at best a bandaid and ,at worst, a con under the guise of a charitable act.
