Americans say live and let live and then turn around and scream hats must be banned.

@h4890 @monarchist @Example @freepatriot There is massive difference between equal opportunity and equal outcomes.

Generally speaking, the right believes in equality of opportunity. Everyone has an equal opportunity to compete in any given market, and the best players win. The outcomes are not equal and are not intended to be. The keyword is opportunity and the right sees life as a positive sum game.

The left believes in equality of outcome across genders, races and orientations (hence intersectionality because it's a complex of ill-defined groups). When natural law delivers differences in outcomes across any specific market (eg. the market for CEOs) the left claims discrimination and ignores the differences in work ethic, natural talent, individual preferences, etc. This is where you get concepts like quotas and the "wage gap." The keyword is outcomes and the left sees life as a zero sum game.
@h4890 @monarchist @freepatriot Revolutions are where one aristocracy is replaced with another entirely. This always happens by force because no group gives up power voluntarily (even if some individuals might).
@h4890 @monarchist @freepatriot Are you talking strictly about the market for ideas (politics) or markets in general?
@h4890 @monarchist @cjd @freepatriot Actually I would advocate that education is only deteriorating in markets where the left has captured the academic institutions and have been allowed to implement woke ideology.

In markets where wokeism is not permitted (eg. China, Russia, etc) there hasn't been that degradation.

If we want to compete with our traditional adversaries then we need to eliminate wokeness from all levels of education.
@h4890 @monarchist @freepatriot I think there's always an aristocracy. They might be called differently under one system vs another - aristocrat, business leader, commissar - but there is always a group who take power and then compete amongst themselves to the exclusion of the majority. It's the great game.

Everything is illegal, everyone is a criminal, everyone is under surveillance 24/7, and no one cares.

Living in a police state means that you must live in dread of being arrested. You can't help feeling hopeless.
