This shit always boils down to “this group is just like that group, because I don’t like either of them”
Yep, people do in fact:
- Like some things about the world
- Dislike other things about the world
- Think you can improve the world
- Think that not improving the world is less than ideal
- Think people shouldn’t do the things they dislike
Observing these trends is not exciting or new, it’s basically called “having an opinion”.

Godthe free market works in mysterious ways to lead us all towardsalvationrational efficiency where everyone mutually benefits and gets exactly what they deserve. who/what is good or bad can only be determined in retrospect based on who/what was rewarded, leading to a logical conclusion that borders on predestination. The only way to ensure that you are one of the predestined to receive salvation is to behave as though you are already predestined, so you must follow certain norms and rituals that don’t actually affect anything, but are used as ex-post-facto justification based on correlated results“Any attempt to make actual progress makes you a lib”
…libs make progress? Wasn’t defund the police and BLM leftist movements?
What no theory…

a ham and cheese sandwich is just like a 1989 Plymouth Sundance. if you change the ham to 4 cylinder FWD automatic and the cheese to a hatchback frame body and instead of buying it at a delicatessen, you buy it from a guy named Ron in the parking lot of the dead mall off the highway bypass.
