Cool, glad it got resolved so simply and neatly, good job everyone! 👍
P.S remember when the Black Panthers had to enforce the right to have a free breakfast program, by patrolling the streets with guns? They we’re Maoist by the way (Maoism dictates using the community to set up community services). Glad things are so much simpler now. Operating on kind comments, thoughts and prayers 🙏
That’s just how far I’ve given up on reformist Capitalism and establishment corruption.
…but also on well meaning idealism that has little meaningful to offer.
You know what would be great, an honest, true, and transparent political system, and maximum wealth limits.
…like we can express good intentions and desires all day. That’s cool, but there are hard problems in the way, and at some point utopianism is a distraction from realism and genuine analysis of what those hard problems are.
No dumb ass, nor did I ever say that by pointing out that the Black Panthers were Maoist in their food distribution program (see their Wikipedia page for details).
Or, you know, we could spend slightly more on existing food programs and relax eligibility requirements…
We don’t have to put Stalin in charge to better fund SNAP or free school lunches
You say we could.
Why haven’t we ?
Please specify the “We”
The general answer is political and scientific illiteracy combined with corruption in politics (such as money or a party with too much power).

I don’t understand why, when confronted with the idea that we should eliminate hunger, you equated that with communist revolution

Your idea to end establishment corruption is to give full authority and remove all accountability for the Establishment, such as Mao ZeDong did?

They murdered Fred, while he was sleeping next to his pregnant girlfriend. Then blamed him.
Thats what they said, no?
