They can see the coercion in government, but they can't see the coercion that pervades all parts of the capitalist system. That's because they haven't got the fucking brains to look below the surface.

They portray it as government coercion or no coercion. And most of them are so dumb, they really believe it.
If one person is born with nothing, and another is born with billions, there's no coercion there to them. Even though the one born with billions can make the other work like a slave all his life for a pittance.

That's the essence of what people on the right are too fucking stupid to get.
The system of capital is far more intrusive and enslaving than any government. But you need a brain to see it. :funny:
All I see is insults and assertions, I could debunk a Stefan Molyneux video in my sleep but all you have is schoolyard smearing. That says more about you than it does about him and no wonder the guy has a large following. :roll:

He's not worth a serious debunking. He's so full of shit, insults is all he's worth.
And the pope has a large following. Isn't he wonderful? :funny:

I expect you do a lot of clever things in your sleep.
While there is a market for shit, there will be assholes to supply it.

A lot of people do seem to equate atheism with social justice warrioring. I show them my Confederate Flag and AR-15, that usually shuts them up.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

I'm not saying he is above insults but consider his reasoning is 'this leads to this and this leads to this' type arguments. It is hardly going to tax your brain debunking his shit, is it, the higher ground and all that.

There are plenty of non-left oriented atheists, as demonstrated by this forum. We are not the Soviet Republic of Rationalia...

Comrade Jim is correct: purity is strength.
Rationalia relies on voluntary donations. There is no obligation of course, but if you value this place and want to see it continue please consider making a small donation towards the forum's running costs.
Details on how to do that can be found here.
