So because I think the rich don't pay nearly enough taxes, I'm part of some idiot mob? I don't know anyone who actively hates rich people. The whole thing seemed like a giant straw man to me.
- magic_haze 13y agoI agree about the tax issue as well, but I thought this post was particularly articulate about analyzing an issue from a perspective that was unusual to me. I didn't have a good enough counterpoint to his argument, so I submitted the link here to get some discussion going. I don't think the intention here was advocacy or judgement. You and I may be moderates, but you have to agree, there definitely are more than enough people who would support mob justice (to take a mild example, the attacks on Google's buses recently... the entire situation seems like a powder keg)
