Haha take that commies.
I was masked in a hardware store. A guy who looked like Tom Skerritt from thirty years ago but taller and thinner looked at me and started ranting about communism with his employee. Did you know that communists want to get everyone dependent on the government? That’s their plan!!
He also said that he had read Marxists and recommended that his employee do so.
This guy also wears some kind of uniform with an American flag on the shoulder every day. I always got bad vibes from him but never really heard him speak. Until now.
I didn’t say anything because I go to this place all the time for work and I see him there constantly and suspect that he may be the owner.
I hate how American civic education never progresses past any political thought that came after Locke and Natural Rights theory. They never even talk about Rousseau because that’s way too radical for the property-brained American version of Liberalism.
“Read Adam Smith”
“I have. I like that he calls landlords leeches.”
“Oh, uh, I meant Locke!”
The hardware store is the place where patriots go, you tread on hallowed ground with your Fauci muzzle.
“Fauci muzzle,” where do you hear this shit?
Just from seeing chud shit posted on here lol
Not to be too much of an edgy reddit atheist but the sentiment is right because your rights don’t actually exist.
Rights are a social construct in my view, and thus rely on both superstructute and material base (a la gramsci), and are “fake” in that they are not materially essential, but real in the impact of this superstructure on material organization and this material base on superstructural organization.
Everybody should have rights but unfortunately if somebody with more capital than you decides to violate those rights there isn’t really anything anybody other than you is going to do to protect them.
That material base do be dictating superstructure. This is actually making me think about how antimaterialist gramsci might be or maybe im just high
He also said that he had read Marxists and recommended that his employee do so.
Can’t argue with that. Unless he’s one of those people who thinks that Hillary Clinton is a Marxist (do not read Hillary Clinton).
you should tell employee point blank to read marx and figure it out
This dude probably hasn’t finished a book since middle school (and that book was Animal Farm). He looked like he was about 55. Marxist literature just looks like gibberish to these people if they even attempt to read it.
its to make owner mad tbh, not that the worker would do it
Ask him how to determine the price of a bolt of linen in relation to how many coats can be made from it.
God says it’s time for land reforms.
I always find it funny that god bestowed the right to own guns and say fuck ass to Americans specifically, and such rights can only be considered god given I’m if they’re enshrined in a constitution with no regulation (in their heads, even though it’s all regulated). Like the Swiss can own guns, but it’s not a god given right; it’s only “temporary government permission” because you have to prove you’re competent before owning a gun.
critical support to the other local hardware store
My god says I have the right to execute all landlords, and since my god gave me that right, I can just do it and you can’t even say I’m wrong.
