I understand, most of you are tired of the oppression. However, to then turn and become the oppressor through mob rule is egregious!

hmm, but the rich have all of the power, they control the military, if you can't come to terms, then you can't get anywhere, collectivism isn't that bad, it's individualism that's the demon in this, how can we keep up when the rich get richer, and the poor get poorer

I am a free man, as such I have rights that no other person or group can take. You dont take away the rights of others, you return those that have been taken to the oppressed. This oppresses no one but empowers everyone. This is individualism!

lol, you two take it too seriously, it's just that, an individual, can't get anything done, as one of my classmates has shown me, i might be socialistic, but... it's not too bad, i believe in the power of people, not the power of the government, democracy over a republic, but, i believe that people should run the economy in a different way, they should vote on what to spend their money on

Jesus, Socrates, Gandhi inspired people. They fought against the "social norm", inspiring others, and have been forever immortalized.

are you saying that i'm inspiring people? or are you saying that i'm not..... eh, it doesn't matter, actually, apparently, i'm close to gandhi on the political spectrum......
