Critique of the Communist Manifesto

[Minister of Truth]

Then you have a problem. I will assume these are undefined buzzwords you are using then.

Buzzword fallacy. You have not yet defined this term.

Apparently they understand it more than you do.

Do you really not understand what liberalism is? Can you at least comprehend federalism? At a certain point, I expect living in this country to have taught you a few things about the nature of American law and government.

 

[Minister of Truth]

Go learn what 'anarchy' means. Buzzword fallacies.

What is anarchy?

 

[Into the Night]

Our entire history is taking other peoples shit away.

No. Not everyone is a thief. Bigotry.

I, for one, do not take other people's stuff or steal their money. I create wealth in the form of instrumentation for medical, industrial, and aerospace uses. I use the wealth created by others as software to create my own wealth. I use the wealth created by others as hardware to create my own wealth.

That's what capitalism is...the creation of wealth. Anyone can play.
Socialism is theft of wealth. That's why oppressive dictatorships and oligarchies are used to implement it. People don't like their wealth being stolen.

Shifting the goalposts eh? Did the government do that?

Some have...rather excessively so.

Tell me, who runs the world? The government? How is bitcoin any different than printing dollars because you can? In fact, how is bitcoin Constitutional?

Bitcoin is completely constitutional, since the Constitution of the United States declares and defines the government of the United States (the federal government) and nothing else.

According to that document, the only currency allowed by the federal government to use as a standard is gold and silver.

Therefore the Fed is unconstitutional.

 

[goat]

Well, I called him out for being a retard, and you're a fanatic, so...

I prefer aging militant, and more of a social anarchist than Marxist.

Do you really not understand what liberalism is?

Liberalism has changed its meaning over time. Currently liberalism generally refers to socialism and imposing governments and laws to implement it.

Can you at least comprehend federalism?

Federalism is nothing more than the layering of government. The United States, as an example, was organized as a federated republic. A republic is government by constitution. A federated republic means layers of government, each with their own constitutions (sometimes called a 'county charter' or 'city charter').

At a certain point, I expect living in this country to have taught you a few things about the nature of American law and government.

There is no such thing as 'American law'. America is a continent. It has no single government. Of several select nations:

The United States was organized as a federated republic. It is currently a set of independent republics (which I call the States of America (SOA), and a few oligarchies. The federal government has fallen and is currently an oligarchy. It no longer recognizes the Constitution of the United States or the constitution of any State. I call it the Socialist Oligarchy of the District of Columbia (SODC) now. The former States of California is no longer a republic, It no longer recognizes the constitution of the State of California. I call it the Socialist Oligarchy of the Territory of California (SOTC) now. The former State of New York I call the SOTNY now.

The federal government fell on Jan 6th, 2021 with the rejection of State authority over the electoral college, and with the installation of Party Leader(?) of the Oligarchy on Jan 20th.

Canada was organized as a federated oligarchy. It still is. It has no functioning constitution.

Mexico was organized as a federated republic. It still is. It has layered constitutions.

Venezuela is currently a dictatorship. It's current dictator is Nicolas Marudo. It has no functioning constitution.

What is anarchy?

Anarchy is government by void...that is, no government at all. No elections, no voting, nothing. There are currently no anarchy nations in the world.
A democracy is government by popular vote. There is no constitution. There are no elected officers. There are currently no democracies anywhere in the world.
A republic is government by constitution. Elections and how they are conducted is defined in that constitution. The officers elected and the power and authority they have is also defined in that constitution. Examples are some periods of Rome, the United States (as originally organized), Japan, South Korea, and Mexico
A dictatorship is government by fiat...that is, a dictator (or king). Examples are China and Venezuela.
An oligarchy is government by committee...that is, a dictatorship by committee. There is usually a Party Leader, or presiding officer of that committee. There is no constitution. Examples are Canada and Russia.

Free will is not a form of government.
Free market is not a form of government.
Forms of economics are not a form of government...meaning the neither capitalism nor socialism nor the use of any currency are a form of government.

Bullshit. It's scrip.

 

[Lightbringer]

Indeed he does. He apparently has NO idea how the concept of money even got started.
Back then, gold was the currency, soon followed by silver.

Over the years, we've also used copper, brass, zinc, bits, paper, clam shells, and even pretty rocks as currency.

The dollar is mostly in bits. A small amount of them are in paper. An even smaller amount is in silver, copper, and zinc.

Bitcoin is entirely in bits.

Bitcoin is bullshit

 

[Lightbringer]

Simple.

A fiat currency one that is declared by fiat...that is a government central bank.
A Bitcoin is a currency created in open source that was not created or dictated by any government as 'the currency'.

BOTH currencies depend on people accepting them. In that respect, there is no difference.

You are wrong, A Fiat currency has no backing. Bitcoin has no backing.

 

[Lightbringer]

How so?

You've already seen that I've answered you tonight on multiple posts. I don't know what you think is happening here but...I think you're an idiot. After all I've seen of you over the last few weeks I think you're dumb...and I mean STY dumb.

 

[Into the Night]

Bullshit. It's scrip.

So?

 

[Into the Night]

Bitcoin is bullshit

Your opinion. I see you don't like Bitcoin. Fine. Don't bother with it.

 

[Into the Night]

You are wrong, A Fiat currency has no backing. Bitcoin has no backing.

Currencies don't need any 'backing'. Not even gold, when used as a currency.

 

[Lightbringer]

Your opinion. I see you don't like Bitcoin. Fine. Don't bother with it.

You're a moron. I don't respect you or your analysis.

 

[Lightbringer]

I think you're an idiot. You can go the fuck away or not...your choice.

You say Bitcoin is rigged, but you have never explained how. I asked a very simple question. Apparently you would rather evade. I will ask again. How is it being rigged?

 

[Into the Night]

Apparently you have no intention of doing anything but throwing insults. We're done. You have no further arguments to present.
