MODERATORS
Class should absolutely be something we strive to abolish. The idea that some people deserve to benefit disproportionally from the workings of our society is nonsense.
I think they're arguing that the bigger the middle, the better. It seems like you two might be arguing the same thing. Making everyone middle is functionally equivalent to removing classes
Yeah but striving for a "middle" class implies the existence of an upper and lower class. If you're already in fantasy land (uncorrupt government) why not make the fantasy as ideal as possible? Answer: for conservatives the ideal is having an upper and lower class because conservatives seem to inherently think they deserve more than other members of society, even if the reality is that they're lower class, they need the existence of an upper class so they have someone's boots to lick. Since they're just one big idea away from being upper class obviously.
It's about as realistic as magically removing corruption in a capitalist government...
Impossible. In all two thousand years has never been done.
Why are you arguing with me? I just tried to clarify the misunderstanding between you two
Didn't mean to seem argumentative and my response was probably better meant for the parent of your comment but yours had some things I wanted to mention too. Sorry if it seemed aggressive.
Wholesome AF. Enjoying the discussion.
