But even before widespread electrical technology, both the quantify and the quality of infrastructure got much better as the government started taking better care of the workers. There's a reason why libertarian societies always fail. The model you're describing just wasn't efficient. Today's lolbert societies have electricity, but they still don't work well.

True, but nazism complied all of these conspiracy theories into one ideology and that's where these modern beliefs from from. When you talk to modern nazis, they claim that Jews from the Frankfurt School have infiltrated our media to spread degeneracy. This is specifically the "Cultural Bolshevism" version of the ancient theory that Jews are destroying society through the promotion of (what we would today call) left-wing values. But they saw the degeneracy of the Weimar Republic as being part of a conspiracy theory involving the Jews trying to destroy traditional German culture. With the possible exception of nordicism, everything went back to fighting against degeneracy that the Jews are causing.

But like you said, they were taken out of the gulags and given a much better life working in government. And it was the same for the former nazis who were captured by the western Allies. It's not like at the height of their power, Nazi Germany decided to align with NATO. They did it after they no longer had power and just didn't want to be imprisoned.

Those were the original nazis. They sided with NATO in return for not being held accountable for their war crimes. Today's nazis generally side with Russia and China because they are authoritarian countries. If the original nazis were still around and in power, they'd probably try to strike a deal with Russia in order to share Eastern Europe, much like they did with the Soviet Union.

That's an argument for higher taxes on the rich.

Not really. I only use the term for reactionary authoritarians who believe the Jews are behind the cultural marxism conspiracy or at least similar conspiracies about the Jews. Even when I say that the fascist Republicans are dog whistling to nazis, I'm careful to draw the distinction here. The Republicans are not nazis, many of their donors and pundits are actually Jewish. However, they are fascist, and they know that many of their supporters are nazis, so they pretend to believe in nazi conspiracy theories. Why not? I know Russians were racially inferior according to nazi propaganda, but the nazis still aligned themselves with the Soviet Union.

Yeah, but conservatives aren't exactly pro-reality.

Yeah, but there's a conspiracy theory about the Ashkenazi Jews actually being Khazars. That's what nazis mean when they say "Anglo-Khazarian." It's actually kinda similar to the black Hebrew conspiracy theory, which also says that Ashkenazi Jews are imposters.

Yeah, but he means Jews. I just want to see if he has the balls to admit it.

Not really. Conservatives do openly support dictators and autocracy. They don't use those words, they don't say they like fascism. But they will support politicians and policies that are reactionary and authoritarian, then claim that calling them fascists is unfair. They're both reactionary and against democracy. At what point is it ok to call them fascists? Also, Trump still endorses and speaks at CPAC, even after Viktor Orbán was there. He also regularly rants about how America should have "quick trials" like they do in China. He praises dictators constantly because he wants to be one. And this is on top of his attacks on democracy. Just because a fascist comes to power democratically, does not mean that they somehow cease to be a fascist.

Your "question" was a last name with no context meant to be an answer to my question about celebrities who were supposedly cancelled. According to her Wikipedia, it was two movies and a TV appearance. First of all, it wasn't just leftists. Liberals and apolitical people also didn't want to see her after her bullshit. She pretty much just had fascist support. Keep in mine, you're a minority in both Canada and America. Secondly, you can't say she was "cancelled" if she is still getting work. If your definition of being cancelled is just getting less work, most of Hollywood has been "cancelled." If you think about it, the anti-fascists are the real fascist because they oppose fascism. You don't have any examples because you're lying. According to his social media, he is. No, my argument was that celebrities don't lose their careers. I said at the start that sometimes they lose jobs. And yeah, I think sometimes it's unfair. I don't agree with overboard political correctness and I think that a lot of times it's just a tiny but very loud minority. But I don't believe that celebrities lose their careers unless they do something on the level of Harvey Weinstein. Also, I think there's a lot of hypocrisy here. You're concerned with the Left boycotting things they don't like, but you're fine with the Right banning things they don't like. Boycotting is not authoritarian, bans are.

Conservatives have been saying that for almost a century in America. It never actually happens. The bourgeoisie will always try to save money. If they can outsource to a third world country, they will. We've tried lowering their taxes to keep jobs in America, but that doesn't work because the bourgeoisie will happily take lower taxes AND cheaper labor through outsourcing. This is why outsourcing increased under Trump, despite everything he did for the rich.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

I've literally never been wrong about anything ever. That doesn't mean it was good. We also had slavery for most of history. No shit. Like I said, taxes benefit everyone. And look at how much better the system of infrastructure became after we abandoned that insane system. The rich benefit more from a society that protects workers. Of course, the rich will always live better no matter the society, but they're better off in a society where the workers are kept alive long enough to finish building roads and bridges.

Now I'm positive that you're a 15 year old libertarian incel. Aside from the fact that this would be an utter hellscape of a world, there's a reason we don't do things that way anymore. In this comic book villain society you're describing, the workers would be dirt poor, many of them unable to afford basic health needs. Workers would be dropping dead far too often to build the infrastructure we need for a society. There would also be way more crime, since more poverty means more crime. Also, don't forget about the bears. There WILL be bears. https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/21534416/free-state-project-new-hampshire-libertarians-matthew-hongoltz-hetling

Cool, but you asked how taxes help rich people. I explained that they help everyone. I don't know what this bizarre follow-up has to do with anything. Are you saying we should reduce unemployment?

Freedom of Speech = The right to speak or write without government oppression. Not Freedom of Speech = The right to a platform or the right to speak or write without consequences. And what happens with taxes in a welfare state? I'll give you a hint. They're not spent on subsidies and bailouts for the rich. Saying that a welfare state just means higher taxes is such a baby-brain take. The Nordic countries have the highest living standards in the world. Higher taxes didn't put the workers into poverty, rather it made healthcare more affordable for the workers. It also reduced crime because, obviously, less poverty means less crime. A welfare state doesn't mean no borders.

You make the claim, it's on you to provide the evidence. And just typing a last name with no context is a pathetic attempt at providing evidence. I checked her wikipedia and she has been in movies since the Mandalorian. She actually would have been in even more movies, but she refused to comply with the covid regulations of the time. So basically, she lost a job, but then she continued working, which is what I said happens to celebrities. And she would have had even more jobs in Hollywood, but she was too stupid to realize that the vaccine doesn't turn you into a magnet or whatever. Cry harder. What racist thing did I say in the entire time I was here? So yeah, that was really really stupid and he shouldn't have apologized. But was he cancelled? He's still doing work in his field, he still works for Rosetta and Cluster. If anything, I think this shows us that people are too quick to do damage control when it's actually just a few very loud losers with too much time on their hands complaining. Had Taylor refused to apologize, he'd still have his current jobs.

Yes, I know you get all of your news and opinions from memes, you don't have to remind me.

Taxes are used to benefit everyone. How do you think we pay for police, roads, bridges, and so on?

So.... is that big government? No, of course not, because conservatives do it. Even Trump said that Elon Musk wouldn't be rich without subsidies and bailouts. Which is kinda funny, because while true, the same goes for Trump. He went bankrupt plenty of times, but was always bailed out because he's part of the upper-class. Why is that ok, but spending money on social programs for the workers is BIG government? War benefits the rich because corporations get to sell weapons, do private security contracting, and rebuild infrastructure. War drastically affects the economy in a way that benefits the rich. Trump didn't start any new wars, but he did continue the wars that were already going on, plus he increased drone strikes. I brought up abortion because this is another thing the government does that conservatives never claim is BIG government. But yeah, the reason conservatives want to ban abortion is because it keeps people poor. It's part of the overall philosophy of conservatism, which is about maintaining hierarchy. We're all fine with the government doing stuff, just as long as we agree with the stuff the government is doing. But right-wing politicians can't admit that they want the government to lift up the rich while pushing down the poor. So instead, they just selectively use the "small government" lie. ??? Boy, you're really taking those lyrics seriously, eh? Bro! You never heard "Anarchy in the UK," dude?! Leftists want anarchy in the UK!! And I guess we don't need roads. Everyone can just use a jetpack. And we don't need a board of health. We'll just, I don't know, say a prayer before eating. And if a train derailment destroys a town, it's their own tough luck. Honestly, you sound like a child who doesn't realize he's depending on his parents to not die. Can you give me some examples of this? Banning things like abortion, drugs, prostitution, porn, and books are good examples of government controlling our lives. I say adults should be able to do what they want with their own bodies. But those are things that you fascists want to ban. What exactly do leftists want that you'd say is government intrusion into our lives? I'd have to see those polls because I'm positive you're lying.

I don't know what that is. Mel Gibson lost a bunch of jobs for his racist and sexist tirades. After taking some time off, he went back to making movies. And that's usually how it works. A celebrity does something stupid, they miss out on some opportunities, then they go back to doing whatever they want.

You sure you're not just having a stroke?

WT actual F?

Yes. I don't think celebrities get cancelled. Some of them lose jobs, but they don't ever lose their career unless they do something as bad as Bill Cosby. TBH, the only celebrities I can think of who legit got cancelled were Cosby, Harvey Weinstein, and Kevin Spacey.
