Just a shower realisation… I never associated the two words before but it’s so obviously true.

    Well, no, the comment I replied to

    Ok … but there is more context on the comments preceding that one.

    billionaire withholding resources they don’t need from society is a political position

    Well, they don’t think they are withholding resources, probably think they are helping with investments, trickledown and bullshit. So it’s literally not a political position they hold. It doesn’t even make sense as one as all it does would paint yourself as the problem.

      I’m not responsible for the comments of others. I replied to something you stated directly where the previous context really doesn’t make a difference. Particularly considering you are doubling down on that comment with

      Except if they believe more wealth should be distributed to them because they believe in trickle down economics… Uh, that’s political.

        Well, if you are unwilling or unable to have conversations that are more than one comment deep, I guess … bye.

        Yes. But not extremist. It’s been the main talking point of republicans for years …

          I never talked about political extremism. The entire breadth of our conversation was limited to how you didn’t see how a billionaire thinking more wealth ought to be distributed to them was political. But that’s a silly position and I think you see that in hindsight, so you are trying to widen the conversation to include the extremism angle, which I never commented on.
