@aral It certainly does but I am a capitalist but also a social liberal. Is the phone to blame for an abusive caller?

@Deembe Depends if the phone rewards abusive callers or not.

@aral If I could choose between an asshole or a dictator the choice would not be very hard.

Looking at the "grean left socialists" we are now headed towards communism at an alarming rate.

I would rather have someone in charge who does not care about people than someone who cares about one kind of people and wants to do horrible stuff to the rest...

@mark With apologies to George Orwell, β€œthe creatures outside looked from asshole to dictator, and from dictator to asshole, and from asshole to dictator again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.”

β€œsomeone who cares about one kind of people and wants to do horrible stuff to the rest...” ← you just described every scumbag billionaire CEO :)
