Nice try conservative policy maker!

Private property. Remove that and many problems will solve themselves real quick, though that will also cause a large number of human deaths before things stabilize

I would don the black hood and swing the ax

Tis messy work, but it's gotta be done

Low taxes when I become a billionaire

Do you build your public order and happiness buildings first in total war games?

Freedom to Breed. Easy for me, because I don't plan on having kids ever and I don't really think it is a good idea to be having kids if you're unable to sustain them much less, yourself.

If a better world means we have to limit the amount of people we bring in here until everything chills the fuck out, so be it. There is absolutely no reason or benefit to bring in 3 - 12 kids at a given.

Nothing because there is nothing guaranteeing the better world would remain intact.

I'd give it 3-4 generations...

Would you sacrifice your flesh? No more body. Brain slurped out at birth, wired up to the internet.

Probably not, that sounds dangerous

You’re not doing a very good job of selling it, but the concept has merit.

Sometimes I sit down and muse about the great world we could create if everything was owned by the state, only approved speech was allowed, if only the best people were allowed to reproduce and everyone was only allowed to think approved thoughts. Like to get my Utopia I am even willing to subject an innocent child to a life of constant suffering and misery...

Would you sacrifice your sex hormones? No more estrogen or testosterone.

[–] m532@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 1 week ago

take it, pls

[–] wreckingball4good@lemm.ee -2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I don't think a better world would include sacrificing those freedoms actually. That's some tankie shit.
