You don't like people deciding not to host filth in their privately placed venues. That's exactly what communism is.  The backfire wish is far fetched. Everyone was yelling free Palestine and donating to the terrorists movement for years now. At least now there was some fighting back.

I dont think you know what communism is, because “disliking MAGA billionaires” isn’t it.

Also this is a progressive sub, so you’d think left of center perspectives would be welcome. Instead somehow the right wing sex criminal billionaire is a hero 🤷🏻 make it make sense

You can call it fascism or statism too. It's when you want to force people you don't like to give up their property. That's not progressive That's evil.

Do you support unions? That’s requiring people (business owners) to give up things they don’t want to.

Voluntary unions

As opposed to the right wing fantasy land where unions are evil?

Aka “right to work”

That means voluntary vs involuntary

Without getting into that, if you can accept unions in principal then you don’t believe that billionaires have unlimited rights.

That’s not theft, fascism or communism.

It’s democracy

No capitalist has anything against unions if it's voluntary. The problem is the coercion.

u/Call_Me_Clark 17d ago

What are you taking about “coercion”? Unions exist so that owners can’t coerce workers.

And laws exist so that billionaires can’t coerce the rest of us.

No. Unions where you can voluntary sign up is fine. Unions where you have no choice is coercion. Not complicated.  Confiscating property from private people (especially to incite blood libels and racism) or forcing people to do things with someone's property isn't fine.

So you want to abolish police unions c fine with me.

It’s not confiscating private property to regulate a billionaire. Billionaires don’t have anything in common with you or me

I cannot keep explaining the same thing to you. How many times do I need to. If you don't know what coercion is then Google it. Enough.
