minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink9•2 months agoYes, but its voluntary, with consent. Under socialism, it would be forced.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink38•2 months agoThose who vote for socialism voluntarily consent to socialism…
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink10•2 months agoAnd those who didnt vote for it? And what happens when the state decides to fund something you despise? Like America funding Israel?
minus-square@[email protected]Mlinkfedilink37•2 months agoI like how your example is from a non-socialist country.
minus-squareALQlinkfedilink31•2 months agoRight? Like…I’m already getting fucked by my government in terms of doing things I don’t like. I may as well get something out of it.
minus-squareMushuChupacabralinkfedilink16•2 months ago And those who didnt vote for it? They should do exactly what you do when the election doesn’t go your way.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink9•2 months agoThat’s the same argument used to not fund summer food programs for kids. So we do our best. We vote, we call, we write letters, we loudly complain. As you’ve pointed out it doesn’t take socialism for the government to fund shit you hate.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•2 months agoI bitch about it online and probably get called a tankie. Why what do you do?
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink3•2 months agoTbh, pretty much the same. Hell, Ive even been called a tankie.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink5•2 months agoHow do taxes have anything to do with voluntary contributions? Taxes also don’t support the creation of anthropomorphised foxes with big tits, but patreon subscriptions sure do.

Tbh, pretty much the same. Hell, Ive even been called a tankie.
How do you think your taxes work now?
