Normal is 104/105. So 57%.

That joke was made by Miguel Gila, a Spaniard comedian, decades ago.

And if the targets are from the US? UK? Ukraine? France? What then? Still good? An attack to kill every US general but with hundreds of civilians wounded or killed?

So you support turning people into suicide bombers without them knowing it. What if the ones with the bomb were from your country? Remember that civilians were hurt too.

To show how dumb is that argument. “My ancestors from 2000 years ago lived there, therefore this land is mine” is as dumb as “my grandmother lived there, therefore this house is mine”. With the same reasoning, Italy could claim all the Mediterranean coast belongs to them. And if it’s from “God gave us this land”, Spain and Portugal divided the Earth (except Europe) for them “because God”. Does this mean Spain and Portugal can claim “their land” back?

I said grandmother to show an example that can’t be used with the “but it’s an historical thing”.

Then what right have the Israelis to carpet bomb Palestine?

That thinking is like believing you have the right to expel the people that lives in the house your grandmother lived on but left when she got married. But now the house is yours because “here lived my family”.

One state with all citizens as first class ones.

Two States mean there will be always a frontier and the hate and grudge will never disappear.

Now imagine a civil war happens in the US and the only places spared are the Indian reservations. And when the war ends, with the army, the air force, the national guard, … all destroyed, the Indians start spreading their territory bombing the remnants of the US, with some help from Russia or China or…

Will you find the Indians have the right to carpet bomb NY or Dallas because they lived there 2 or 3 centuries ago?

Now it seems the way is unique_ptr and shared_ptr. And std::any to replace void*. At least is what it seems to me.

That’s something I don’t get about doing things in a language that is not meant to be used for that (like JS for something other than web).

Maybe I didn’t explain myself correctly. For the bourgeoisie class to disappear it’s not needed to kill anyone. Only take off the power they have and make them work as proletarians.

It’s not “destroying all the enemies of the working class” but “destroying classes so we end up being working class”. The idea (as I understand it) is that working class is the one that creates things while bourgeois class is only a parasite. So everyone should be creating something and not sucking the blood of others.

“And when all those self made champions went away and created a new society, free of the old one, one of them asked ‘does anyone of us know how to cook?’. And then they screamed in fear”.

My take on this is that the greatness in humanity comes from being a bunch of egoistic assholes capable of doing the right thing and help each other.

A selfless person doing something selfless is normal. A egoist doing something egoistic is normal. An egoist doing something altruistic is what raises us from pure instinct to humanity.

Represented as a volume is also great. If I’m not wrong, his wealth in 500€ bills is a 165 m (180 yards) cube. One million is 3 l (a little less than 0.8 gallons).

Maybe you could find if all those homeless are from California or from other state. It could be a surprise that other states took their homeless and gave them a ticket to San Francisco.

Then maybe the answer could be something like a car wash machine: first pass with soap and then only water.

The answer (I think) it’s not UBI, cooperatives OR more democracy. It’s all this at once and even more.

UBI would mean everyone has a meal under a roof and has no fear of starting a business. Cooperatives put the value of the work in the hands of the worker. Free public universal healthcare and education systems with public affordable/free housing and public supermarkets makes everyone safer.
