I’ve never seen “dufus” spelled that way before, it’s immediately enticing.- like you hybridized the word with “Rufus”.

Sexual aggression is illegal in the UK? That sounds pretty boring, ngl.

I don’t think you understand how insirance works.

Capitalism with a strong safety net sounds like you’re avoiding the question. The question is how to replace capitalism, not how to improve it.

How are you defining democratic socialism? Usually when I ask people to define socialism they answer with capitalism with extra undefined steps whereby the set of employees of a business are legally forced to be equal to that business’s set of owners. I’m not familiar with “democratic” as a modifier to the term, though.

Step 1: Think of a viable alternative.

No-one has yet achieved step 1, which makes subsequent steps harder. It’s easy to get your hands on people who will answer with magical thinking, but a system that will actually work and isn’t capitalism has yet to be invented.

Cities are trash now, this will only make them worse because corporations are stupid. The new process will look like this:

Buy plot of land.

Build business without adequate parking.

People park on the street, which will remain mysteriously legal but exacerbate the same disasters street parking already causes.

Even with that, parking is insufficient. Business goes belly-up, causing urban blight.

New investor goes to Step 1.

Chiropracty isn’t “scientific”.

We could always embrace capitalism by getting rid of corporations, like as a concept. They’re a fundamentally anti-capitalist idea.

That’s not true. You don’t have to ask someone to stop committing defamation before suing them for defamation.

Does it count as a tell when it’s irrelevant? Everything Trump says is a lie. You can tell he’s lying because his lips are moving. The addition of the word “Sir” doesn’t change anything.
