    Just because someone says they represent everyone, and that what they own is owned by everyone, doesn’t make it true.

    Did people have a say in what they could do with that infrastructure, or was it ultimately just up to the people in charge? If the former, it was socialism, if the latter, it wasn’t.

    Be more concerned with what people do, not necessarily what they say, when ascribing ideals to them.















  • Man, people really think this is actually going to change things and it’s hilarious.

    Well, hilarious in that I have to laugh to keep from breaking down in tears. On one side you have people who will do anything to squeeze every last penny from our quickly decaying corpses, and on the other we have a bunch of people who did little more than bitch and moan until someone does something drastic and ultimately futile in which case they… mostly continue to sit back and watch while assuming everything is somehow magically going to fix itself for them.
