@rbreich Asking that everyone be taxed the same is just seeking equality in oppression, we should be asking that the government take less from people not more. But as long as they're taking stuff they should target the billionaires and leave normal people alone. 4 comments
@UkraineWillWin @rbreich Libertarian capitalist ideas of limited government are functionally just feudalism, the rich playing the roll of the state. @UkraineWillWin @rbreich Under libertarian socialism however the 'state' is the people, its functions are carried out by the people as a horizontal structure. @UkraineWillWin @rbreich It's interesting to think of how a libertarian socialist 'state' would interact with the rest of the world. In Rojava where a lot of these ideas have been implemented they have a figurehead legislature with no real power because that's what other countries expect to be able to interact with. |

Isn't the idea of "limited government" really just a perpetuation of the inequalities that exist in society?
This is a common "libertarian" tactic, espouse "limited government" except for building a wall on the border, or funding the military. No limitations there, its just things like health care where they want "limited government."
I know you're not actually a libertarian, but IMO contemporary libertarianism is a fraud perpetuated by the rich to impose inequality.
