    I don’t understand why, when confronted with the idea that we should eliminate hunger, you equated that with communist revolution

      That’s just how far I’ve given up on reformist Capitalism and establishment corruption.

      …but also on well meaning idealism that has little meaningful to offer.

      You know what would be great, an honest, true, and transparent political system, and maximum wealth limits.

      …like we can express good intentions and desires all day. That’s cool, but there are hard problems in the way, and at some point utopianism is a distraction from realism and genuine analysis of what those hard problems are.

          No dumb ass, nor did I ever say that by pointing out that the Black Panthers were Maoist in their food distribution program (see their Wikipedia page for details).
