Unnamed TNG skant beefcakeHello it is me
I am the extreme alt left
I am here to bully you online into accepting ridiculous ideas like:
* Literally everyone deserves a good life
* Universal, unconditional healthcare
* No one should have too much power over anyone else
robertologyHello it is I from the extreme Right.
I am here simply to comment before I go back to doing my own stuff. My comments include ridiculous ideas such as:
* Literally everyone deserves the opportunity to create a good life
* Families, neighbors, churches, etc. ought to care for each other
* No government entity should have power over the citizens

Honestly even your first point invites victim-blamey wiggle room. "People who squandered their opportunity (as we perceive it) deserve to be poor" vs "no one deserves/needs to be poor".

The OP said "good life". I said "good life". Where does "poor" come from?
Make whatever life you want, but you aren't going to be given one. There is no Good Life Warehouse where you can pick one up. Even if you're born into all the resources and connections, you still need to make a life. And some of those make a bad life.
I'm sure it helps, but being rich is not required for a good life.
And "good" is subjective. Define yours and make it happen. That's empowerment.

Fascinating how you managed to mince so many words to say so little, and 90% of it is just... Pretentious moralizing.
I could probably unpack your onion of bull but I don't have all day, sorry.
