So a just hierarchy is like a kingdom and an unjust hierarchy is a democracy?

Who voted for the "respected" elder? What if 49% of the population don't respect them?

So nothing would ever get done?

Who gets to decide how much of a percentage of the council needs to agree before a motion gets accepted?

Like, it is a romantic sentiment "every decides together", but how would that work practically? Someone will have more power than the others. And when that happens, you have a hierarchy.

All of these frameworks would require every person to work for the betterment of society. It is a nice sentiment, but not really realistic. That is why they call it utopian.

No we don't see, because that isn't whataboutism.

Whataboutism would be saying that even though your medicine killed 30 people, your competitors medicine killed 50 people so yours isn't that bad.

Even if there are genocides worse than the holocaust. The entire point of the Nazis were to kill everyone eventually in order to create their dumb idea of an ubermench.

Most genocides are about keeping power. But the holocaust was about creating a whole new humanity by killing anyone that wasn't blue eyed, blond haired super people. It would affect the entire world eventually. Definitely not just Jews.

If we'd let them, the Nazis would have easily caused the worst genocide in human history, with no equal in reality except for the atrocities in sci fi like Warhammer 40k.

Nah, Communism is bad because it is as much of a fairy tale as a free market. For exactly the same reasons.

Bad people ruin things for everybody. Whether they are head of state or head of corporations doesn't change much as long as they have power.

Pretty sure there was an entire episode of Lower Decks about this specific problem.

The PC was accessible from every pokecenter.

It was a high availability cluster.

The fuck is Texas education?

Is that some town nobody knows of in Africa?

Yeah, I can't stand people who peaked during high school.

Work is a million times better. Because you get to do what you love and people actually respect your opinion. And if they don't you can say "fuck you" and just move to a different job.

The best part? I get home and I don't have to think about work anymore. Unlike with homework.

Offline games will stay existing, even if the AAA studios won't create those.

But fuck em.
