  Don't shoot the messenger. I didn't say I agreed with the argument. For example, anyone who is in favor of "smaller government" should support of the "Defund the police" movement. They do not. That should tell you something about the state of critical thinking. Public healthcare is "communism" but police and the armed forces are somehow not. I've made literally the same argument to someone on here a while back. Here it is: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25503815 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25503815
