It does undermine your argument though, because you are saying that it only spread because of capitalists. I'm telling you it spread because of government funding and capitalists were just the medium by which the funding was used. The capitalist part is replaceable and unnecessary.

The telecom companies got paid by the government to do it, they just as easily could have paid themselves to do it but we as a society are allergic to the idea of taking money out of the hands of poor billionaires and their potential profits

Do you really need that explained to you? The article is about exclusion and shame in the gaming community and you responded in an exclusionary and shameful way.

Shame and exclusion on display. Why do you want to put people down?

Why is it never the fault of the Democrats for constantly picking a lesser evil, but still evil character? Who are we appealing to with that? The moderately evil people? Brother the elections are years away, why are you so excited to throw your entire life and hope behind the first piece of shit who decided to swing?

Oh boy I sure love the idea of violently destroying someone's home with no plan in place for any extra service or place for them to go. Just hand them a brochure for the exact same services that have failed them for years.

Unless you have a fucking home to move them into you should not be clearing these encampments.

Brother, delete this silly comment and be a nicer person. Please, there is still time!

Here's the sad thing dawg. I love the tacticool aesthetic. I love the feel of the material and I love patches. But the entire industry is propped up and advertised for these "I am a manly man man who man's harder than women and other men" and that's so sad. It's an aesthetic ruined by the culture it belongs to.

Personal property is not private property. Your house is not the means of production.

It's a invite by the state ,who truely in all practical terms owns the house, to enter the house. They have the authority higher than that of the owner and are able to overrule them in decisions pertaining to access to the house.

Now hold on. The man's house does not exist in a vaccume but within a state and the owner who owns it only does so at the pleasure of that state. In a sense the owner is maybe the one most directly in control over who can and can't come in but he does not have final say. That comes from the states monopoly on violence able to will themselves into houses under their jurisdiction given the right legal work.

You might say no, in which case is the owner of the house the only one able to invite a vampire in? No other person with access or implied authority can? No roommate, child, house guest? I think we can all agree that the vampire would be able to enter with those peoples permissions and I would argue the state has more actual authority to pick and choose who can enter the house than any of the examples.

This vampire cop is truly unstoppable.

Brother it sounds like you underestimate what industrializing the largest population on earth looks like. It's not just happening, it's kinda inevitable.
