Sounds like those motherfuckers need to pay some taxes, clearly.
That's your take away?
Yep. A single billionaire funding a war effort is abhorrent.
This one happens to be on the right side, but there's absolutely no guarantee that his will be the case for any of these fucking psychopaths.who horde wealth. They all need to go.
Counterpoint - under the current administration, paying taxes might help Russia more
But would the current administration be the current administration without wealth hoarding psychopaths?
No, it would not.
It wouldn't, but I think that ship has sailed already. I don't see how your current governmental structure would ever fix that. It's been a problem since citizens united, if not before
It has always been up to the people to establish governmental structure. History provides the examples, mon frére.
Except he's not funding a war, he's funding the defense of a nation fighting for freedom and its right to exist.
Ukraine didn't get in this war as a pissing match with Russia. It was wrongly attacked and is a democracy defending itself. It's had its children kidnapped and its civilians targeted. It will cease to exist if it loses. We don't have a greedy capitalist funding an unjust war for profit as you're trying to suggest. Helping Ukraine is the right thing to do. Refusing to help them will simply result in Europe fighting a better-resourced Russia later.
We don't have a greedy capitalist funding an unjust war for profit as you're trying to suggest.
Yet.
If there's one thing billionaires are known for, it is, of course, giving billions to a war effort with absolutely zero strings attached. Totally.
I don't doubt the possibility but that's not the situation here and now with defending Ukraine.
I'm not arguing that these funds shouldn't go to Ukraine. I'm arguing that no single individual should ever be allowed to have so much money that they are able to do this. They all need to be cut down to size ASAP.
Do you say the same thing about Russian billionaires funding the war against Ukraine?
They said :
they all need to go
All being the operative word here, which is inclusive of Russian billionaires.
Are you ByteJunk? Is ByteJunk a name for a group of people or why do you say « they »?
No. I am dependencyInjection.
I said they, as I was referencing ByteJunk and what they literally said (typed, if you want to be a pedant) in the comment you replied to.
Are you happy now? Do you need anything else blatantly obvious to be clarified for you?
Bogus is just doing that new anti-trans-panic performance the nazis do now where they pretend English hasn’t used they/them for unspecified gender for hundreds of years. She’s a troll.
Yeah it’s an odd one. You could say my friend Bob is also going and they will meet you in the reception.
Perfectly normal way of speaking and nothing to do with transgender stuff.
Ah, great idea for progress in English, they have. Not only 'the' for all sexes, but 'they' for all, now they say. Great idea they have, yes. 🤣
Seek help.
Singular they had existed for centuries before your miserable existence.
It's a way to refer to someone in the 3rd person without knowing their gender. If you do know their gender, you can use the proper gendered pronouns.
Not only ‘the’ for all sexes
'The' has always been gender neutral in English because English doesn't assign gender to nouns. Thus grammatically, a gender-specific "the" isn't necessary unlike in German or Spanish where all nouns have grammatical genders. And if you come back at me with "'the' isn't even that old, it used to be spelled 'ye'", well the problem there is that it was only printed that way for convenience, the pronunciation was never with a "y".
"It" is incorrect for using about a person as well, unless referring to a baby or a small child. Why? It's just how English has been spoken for a long time now, and how it's still used. Language rules should reflect usage, not the other way around.
Please, correct it you want to say, then 'it' say, you must 😂
