Silas Marner was so hated by my English class our teacher cried. It turns out it was what she wrote her master’s thesis on and no one agreed with her about it being good.

Because directing more wealth away from feudal authorities/noble families to private individuals was good for increasing wealth distribution. This happened at different times in different places.
Capitalism only benefits capitalists
Nah, it can benefit the rank and file provided the wealth was poorly distributed before by creating more jobs. This is exactly what happened when it was adopted by most nations in the 19th century.
Fewer people are poor despite the capitalists, not because of.
China’s for-profit business investments in Africa since 2000 are an example if capitalist policies bringing people out of poverty. Im not sure your claim has the validity you think it does.


Yet fewer people are poor because we instituted capitalist policies. Moving away from mercantilism was a great idea and benefitted most to a greater degree than mercantilism provides. Now we need to move beyond capitalism to address the failures of capitalism.


The fact is money is relative. $100k USD is a lot of money in New Guinea and is not going to buy as much in London. This is why it is perfectly acceptable for someone like Thiel to assemble a private army with his wealth while people starve because they haven’t worked the grind correctly like Musk, Thiel or the Mountbatten-Windsors have /s.


How is it the same as supply side economics?


im not sure bigotry is the goal as much as control is.


What about all the working class folks who work in film? Not everyone on that movie set or working in that theater are ultra wealthy and in fact most are not.
You don’t just not give a fuck about the elites of Hollywood. You seem to not be thinking of the working class folks there either.


Pre-COVID I went several times a week. COVID broke theater etiquette and now I dont go because I dont want to have toget an usher again because someobe feels the need to play on their phone during the movie.


The Ellisons are actively trying to destroy the US government and replace it with a surveillance state. Fuck those people.


People with the need for A/R overlays on their vision? I can see their use in very specific situations but IDK why you would constantly wear them.
Yes but since most users aren’t using these spaces they are not the same.


Yes, but if you are looking to pretend you are a humble preacher it’s how ypu can skim some more cash.
Thanks, as you can tell Im not super well informed about firearms in general


No it was because they suspected he had mob ties and was lying about his wealth.


My point was it isn’t just Trump and don’t be surprised if a societal sacred cow akin to a Mr Rodgers ends up on the list as well.


Some did and others just knew the guy. Im perfectly willing to have everyone explain why they knew the guy in a courtroom.


Are you looking to rent jets as a second income? You need two to do that.


The church does. They need 1 so their staff can fly to other churches to spread the word. The other three are loaned out to a jet rental company that a shell company owned by the pastor’s shell company owns so he can appear to be making nothing off the church directly.


He might be talking about folks who were around Epstein but never had involvement with kids. Personally, Im willing to make everyone publicly explain their ties to that guy.
