A hypothetical is not a straw man.

By virtue of you not addressing my two hypotheticals, I have now decided that you would respond to the nuking of California by Trump with both Biden and Trump are the same. Which is an insane position to have, which is probably why you’re not answering the hypotheticals in the first place. Because you know it’s insane, and yet you still hold that position.

I noticed you also dodged my question about policy versus outcomes.

It’s pretty clear that you don’t care and you’re just a troll or an idiot.

You’d be doing everyone a favor, scratch that, possibly saving some lives, by getting your jollies off on trolling something other than politics.

I see no further reason to reply on this thread.

Have a nice life.

It’s not a straw man. It’s a hypothetical. Feel free to answer it when you want.

Also, what do you mean about policies? If Trump didn’t change his policies and nuked California, would you then still say that Biden and Trump are equally as bad?

No, I oppose it generally. You just either don’t understand the arguments or are too dogmatic.

I am willing to bet that if Trump had the military kill everyone who was more dark than a specific shade of white and then nuked California. Your opinion would still be that Biden and Trump are the same.

Ah, I see we have opted to move the goal post and add adhoms a classic strategy.

Biden deported them without going to the legal process? Like I’m pro-immigration so I get it. But there’s a big difference from deporting people via the legal process. Versus picking up some guy who’s a US citizen who has a tattoo of his mom on his shoulder. Calling him a gang member and then sending him to some other country to a slave prison without due process.

Neither Biden or Trump are good, but it’s really hard to argue that things would be just as bad today under Biden or Harris then they are under Trump. And Trump’s not even done with the first year of his second term.

Slight nitpick. Though I agree with the whole “we’re never better off with the Dem fascists in charge either.” In the long term. In the short term there are a lot of innocent people in US concentration camps and whom have been deported. Who would strongly disagree with you.

There was a way around this that would have resulted in no deaths. Trump should been prosecuted for the January 6th insurrection. Then we should have put a bunch of fascists in jail for a long time. Then we should have de-platformed grifters.

But none of that happens so. We get what we get.

Oh God, the number of comments taking this post as a literal question is too high. I can’t tell if they’re serious or not.

I guess I’ll do my best too explain. Often pro-capitalist individuals will use the argument that without capitalism nothing would get done and/or invented. The point of this post is that things did get done and invented without capitalism. Thus invalidating this particular capitalist argument.
