There's still a currently running Barney show and kids still hella watch Barney. What are you on about?

Which brings me back to the point that the good side is the side of the workers. That means meeting their material conditions now, who also ensuring that we fight for better material conditions for the future.

I'm not defending the anti-solution, I'm saying that the anti-solution is the only way to meet the material needs of these people right now. Capitalism is both the system that we live under and a system that should be dismantled, and these two things are not contradictary. You're literally defending the idea of having a service rendered to you and then denying the human being that served you the means to feed themselves. Because why? Hopefully if you and others do it enough it will turn the tide and maybe there will be some massive uprising of service workers and then people will get paid a living wage? Exactly what are they supposed to do until then?

While I agree with you, it doesn't change the fact that giving some one a tip today saves them tomorrow. I don't think the waitress that brought me my hash browns is particularly interested in labor theory, she just needs money.

If you fully knew that Nazi Germany was Nazi Germany and you just decided to go anyway cause you love sports so much?

Sure there is. It's the side of the workers

The side of the workers is wanting them to get fair wages while also wanting them to be able to feed themselves and not go homeless in the interim. The two aren't mutually exclusive

You're making a philosophical argument based on principles, the other person is making a practical argument based on ethics. Neither one of you are even responding to each other.

Yes, and we call ourselves Anarchists or left libertarians because the right specifically and intentionally stole that term

Why would they assume that? America is famously a shitty country for workers. You'd have to know nothing about the country you're visiting to not know that

Literally what everyone else said, we're an uneducated shithole. Europeans should know that. I'm not vilifying the rest of the world, I'm holding them to a higher standard, because once again (and I cannot emphasize this enough), the U.S. is a bad place to be. Listen to your travel advisories, they're actually minimalizing how bad it is

No, I'm saying that people shouldn't be surprised when the customs are different in the country they didn't research because they thought they understood it well enough from the memes

That's simply not true. I'm not a large, and therefore don't pretend to live in a system I don't. This is the system that I live in, and I have to do everything possible to reduce harm to others, which includes voting. Maybe try educating yourself?

Off topic: I'm working on a recipe for a sort of function/party-thing. You see, I'm having a hard time deciding whether to use vegetable tanned or chromium tanned. You seem like the kind of person that would have a good idea idea about how boot leather tastes. Which one would be better for a bunch of statists who either love being ruled by others have delusions that they're the ones who would rule others? Anything you can offer would help. Thanks.

Edit: What does the Alliance of Sahel States have to do with anything?! 🧐

Whether or not a country has a tippsung culture is one of the first things that basically any travel brochure will mention, so yes. You should know how to order and pay for food in the country you are visiting. It's very basic stuff

Because it's normal to learn some things about the country that you're visiting before you go, and it's not a exactly a secret that the U.S. isn't doing well right now

It's distracting and takes away from the conversation

Did the medieval Norse kick your puppy or something? Why do you hate the letters "Th"? Are you trying to make something happen?

??? Most of the best crochet stuff that I have was made by people working in offices vita literally the perfect activity for working in an office, what do you mean?

Oh really? Well, obviously that doesn't work. They're literally programs designed to recognize patterns and interpolate. I'm pretty sure they already have more than enough training data to figure out "th" should be used in place of "þ".
