@Popehat@mastodon.social Well, there's nothing like working on the kill floor of a slaughterhouse.

@Popehat@mastodon.social I'd be very curious to know who composed that tweet and actually thought it was rational to post. Worse yet, perhaps it was a committee decision and this was the one they chose out of a long list of possible tweets. Oy.

@Popehat@mastodon.social gotta get the wage slaves started early. I mean 7 bucks an hour is great if you are still living at home. Besides then they also won’t have to pay for schools either. I’m guessing they are thinking kids would like coal mining (or Chimney Sweep for the Dickensy Libertarians…). If they are shooting for a twofer with harassment I’m guessing they want kids working at Hooters.

@Popehat@mastodon.social "the very things that make them free" in relation to work! How much more openly Nazi can you be? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arbeit_macht_frei

@Popehat@mastodon.social I know this is complaing about the sprinkles on a shit sundae but "skills they *can't* apply elsewhere"?

@Popehat@mastodon.social These dudes (I haven’t noticed many dudettes) have taken the worst bits of Murray Rothbard and magnified them to the power of 10. It’s like watching Flat Earthers steadily reasoning themselves to crazy

@Popehat@mastodon.social I remember being told in the 70s by libertarians that racism is actually good for Black people.

@Popehat@mastodon.social As with people who insist that people do not need to go to college, they are talking about other people, not their own family.

@Popehat@mastodon.social When I was young, "hating one's parents" was caused by rock and roll. Hateful parents are always looking for a reason why their children pull away from them. And that reason is never them.

@Popehat@mastodon.social I wonder if "can't" is correct, but "apply" should have been "learn." Can't learn would contrast with the supposed learning in the second sentence.

@ThatPrilla@mastodon.social 2023-05-24 20:05
@Popehat@mastodon.social the “can’t” has been bugging me ever since I read it. Typo? Intentional? I just don’t know.

@Popehat@mastodon.social A libertarian is someone who knows the price of everything, the value of nothing, and the age of consent in every jurisdiction.

@Popehat@mastodon.social The very things that make one free is realizing that not everything you see on Twitter is from a mainstream source. God, why the FUCK did I read Twitter comments from fascist/ignorant people again...

@Popehat@mastodon.social How do we get the clownish incompetent Libertarian leadership back? At least they were good for a laugh.

@Popehat@mastodon.social Many children die in farming accidents every year. Some working and some being with their parents on rural jobs. Many are recent immigrants

@Popehat@mastodon.social To be fair, when kids don't get an education, Libertarianism sounds REALLY metal and cool

@Popehat@mastodon.social Didn't the Mises Institute types finally get control of the Libertarian Party? Gee, can't imagine why Neo-Confederates would be in favor of indentured children...
-
@crisperthanthou@mastodon.social 2023-05-24 21:05
@Popehat@mastodon.social Where on that list is "relaxing rules about the age of consent"? Because that seems to always come up shockingly early when libertarians start talking amongst themselves about attempting some kind of island paradise or crypto commune.

@solargroovy@mastodon.social 2023-05-24 21:28
@Popehat@mastodon.social Before they tweet, maybe they should have an open discussion with their children whether forcing their children to work in a sweat shop cause them to hate their parents or is it just a lifetime of Lee Greenwood concerts, home schooling and shitty parenting that brought them to this point

@SueShannon@mstdn.party 2023-05-24 21:41
@Popehat@mastodon.social I went looking for this on Twitter, and it looks like they took it down. It is even too stupid for their constituency. And while I was doing all this scrolling, I noticed that whoever writes their tweets has some pretty bad grammar.

@ANeM@mastodon.social 2023-05-24 21:55
@Popehat@mastodon.social Boy howdy, if a school teaching a kid that systemic racism is bad results in that kid hating their parents it sure sounds like a problem with the parents, not the school.

@Popehat@mastodon.social Right here. In the open. “Arbeit macht frei”.
