I get confused by “state” as well because I know he means only the parts of gov’t that are run by the GOP, never ones run by democrats

Right?
No, I call them both conservative parties because they're both equally responsible. The problem is capitalism, and both of them are capitalist parties. One is more conservative than the other, but neither are really on the left.

Systemic deaths are just an impersonal form of murder, even if it just looks like a statistic because it is so large, millions of deaths are millions of deaths.

Can we talk about systemic deaths without the bullcrap murder hyperbole?

I don't think we can.

I can put it aside. I realize there's a certain amount of heaps for science to move forward, as Professor Farnsworth said. We create too many heaps for too many stupid reasons.

Do you realize how many children haven’t died of starvation due to agricultural engineering and mechanized farming? You can bitch about the excesses of capitalism reasonably, but before the United States told the old world “I am the captain now” a full 50% of children on planet earth died before reaching age 5. How would you rate that system?

I think we can reasonably say 100,000 fentanyl deaths per year and 1 million homeless is a problem and a systemic one, but I’m not hearing a realistic alternative and the government needed to impose the authoritarianism for whatever you would propose as an alternative would automatically reduce material and social prosperity BIGLY

In summation, seek Christ, for you’ve been led astray my ATLien

you both often say BIGLY, and only in caps.

that, and the christian references and beliefs about a woman's role in society

ergo you are 1 person.

Oh it's an improvement from feudalism, no doubt. I don't know why everyone around here seems to take critique of capitalism as support for something else. Capitalism is a necessary step towards utopia. We've learned the lessons we need to from it and are beginning to outgrow it.

I hope we just keep bolting on more socialist structures and gradually crushing the evils it otherwise produces.
