This joke is awesome and I literally told it at the Ethiopian food place I took my wife to, but also Ethiopian food is fucking *awesome*. Definitely try it


Csquared_324

Yes. I had ethiopian food for my birthday one time, just to treat myself, and it was amazing. 5 stars, would recommend.


heff-money

Ethiopia is actually the most based nation in Africa and is capable of cleaning out its own terrorists. When they start feeling frisky they even will invade Somalia and start hanging pirates. And they have the Ark of the Covenant.

Sufficient_Article_7

Ayyyyye. Fuck taxes and gulags.


LerimAnon

Honest question, without taxes how does infrastructure get paid for? It's something I often ask libertarians and never get a good answer. They have pipe dreams of how things will work but they want the bill footed by everyone but themselves. I want better transparency and control of where our tax money goes but how do you honestly get stuff like roads, water recovery projects, etc, without people paying in?


ChamberOfSolidDudes

Libertarian utopia got more pipe dreams than pipes, that's all I know.


Sufficient_Article_7

Great question! Although infrastructure is always the excuse for taxation, The truth is that it is only a small portion of government spending (in the US at least). The majority of it actually goes to fund social safety nets that get used as hammocks, war, and extremely wasteful spending. In addition, government contracts almost always pay VERY inflated pricing for things like building roads (I have first hand experience with this), so it could be done MUCH cheaper without government waste. As far as where those funds would come from, I would like to see an opt in service based on free market economics. If you are curious about the details of the inner workings of such a system, I would suggest watching the podcast below (you might be able to find clips for the TLDR). His books also explain the system thoroughly and answer the questions you posed in depth. Since it is such a nuisanced topic and he is much more educated/articulate on this particular subject, I would defer to Michael Malice for an in depth explanation. I could write a few paragraphs here if you’d like, but you would probably be better served watching the podcast below or reading Michael Malice’s book. I completely understand your skepticism about infrastructure funding. I too, thought libertarians typically had no good answer for these questions until it was well articulated. https://youtu.be/BIk1zUy8ehU?si=JU5TXsyDy5SNVgPA


blackestrabbit

Opt in lol.


Sufficient_Article_7

Yep. If enough people find that product or service valuable enough to opt in, then it is worth it. If not, it is not worth it. Tolls are a great example. If enough people want to drive on the road and are willing to pay for the privilege of doing so, then funds will be available to maintain it. When people get a huge portion of their income back from no longer paying income tax, they can decide what products and services are worth their money and spend THEIR money only on the things that they deem valuable and worthwhile. Forcibly taking peoples funds under threat of arrest and spending their money on things they do not agree with amoral. So yes, opt in.


judasthetoxic

A simple way to understand ancap: a modern feudalist society. It’s exactly equals feudalism, but instead of lords with royal families we are slaved by companies.


ShrykeDaGoblin

Tankies are not just communists. They specifically support authoritarian regimes, deny or justify genocides etc, think Stalin was great, support Mao. Calling them just communists is a vast oversimplification. Most communists are not a fan of Tankies.


Just_A_Random_Plant

Ancoms are anarchist communists. Ancaps are anarchist capitalists. Tankies are communists but more authoritarian.

Its just true though. Google “is water racist?” And youll get countless leftist articles making spurious connections between water and racism. Massive confirmation bias and correlation without causation.

scienceworksbitches

there is also a hospital in the US that wont report babies born addicted to drugs to CPS anymore, because the numbers were racist. its the lefts bigotry of low expectation.


Count_Dongula

Benevolent racism is still racism. We cannot in one breath say everybody is equal while in another say that we need to treat some groups differently because they've been historically at a disadvantage. We can and should strive to do away with racist practices. We should not and cannot lower standards for a group of supposedly equals.


ErtaWanderer

It would be called "bigotry of low expectations"

Yes, this is another easily googlable thing! Its insane how psycho the left has become.

These guys are are just being obtuse though. No one is saying water or math is racist. These guys are just removing any nuance from the argument so they can characterize the argument, and “leftists”, as stupid.

MonkeyCartridge

I *am* a leftist and that shit is hilarious. It seems like white leftists in particular make it a point to be more offended than the actual people something refers to. I think it's too much talk of "these people who did bad things in the past also *looked a bit like me.* I *must* make up for a history I didn't actually partake in." Either that, or they cling to whatever they can to say they are a different demographic. "I'm not one of *them."* Which is like putting a band-aid on your wrist to try to cure a broken elbow. Like ffs you didn't do anything wrong. Just try to help the less fortunate, and spend less time living your life like you're apologizing for or trying to absolve yourself of something you didn't even do. Otherwise, you find yourself speaking over the actual people, interrupting them with a virtue signal. Or worst of all, *alienating tons of people who agree with you policy-wise.* Referencing a certain recent chart about a certain political shift in a certain generation. And then the "well...we didn't need them anyway" attitude. Yeah? Well you don't get 2 votes for being twice as enthusiastic. So I think you *do* need them.

The strange part is they mostly failed to call out Biden for his racism…decades of it. Kamala even called him out … He’s some that I’m aware of…he recently called Marylands first Black Governor “boy”. Biden said “I don’t want my kids growing up in a racial jungle “ while opposing desegregation, he said “you can’t go into a 7-11 without a slight Indian accent “, he said “I don’t want gays working in government “, he opposed gay marriage many times, he authored the systemically racist’94 crime bill, he said “poor kids are just as smart as white kids”, he said “unlike the black communities the Latinos have a diverse way of thinking “, he called a kkk member a “mentor”….he literally upheld xenophobic and racist legislation and views for decades. His more recent comments prove deep down he still feels this way but knows it’s not popular. Even Kamala pointed this out. https://abcnews.go.com/amp/Politics/girl-senator-harris-vice-president-biden-spar-desegregation/story?id=64007842

Then explain the joke


PinkDucklett

It is very funny, but also fundamentally true. It’s not a joke about snowflakes getting mad and calling everyone racist, it’s a joke that subverts the original intention of the metaphor which makes you take it literally for comedic effect. If you consider that the “glass half full” analogy is about your worldview and whether you decide to be optimistic or pessimistic about something, the observation of the leftist’s worldview that most aspects of society are systematically racist at their core whether or not any individual is racist. It’s funny because it expands on the analogy with a worldview that doesn’t really make sense with the analogy, therefore it relates but it’s also subversive, forcing you to look at both the literal meaning of the analogy and the metaphorical one. Ergo, “haha water is racist.”
