For everyone on Earth minus a slight statistical anomoly, I agree! Like, you know how cleaning wipes say they kill 99.99% of germs? Well I want the needs of 99.99% of the population met.

My basic need is to watch people I disagree with suffer.

I think people should have what they wish on others.

Yes but what if the person running wants your basic needs met and sanctions Israel but doesn’t emphatically condemn them. They’re literally the devil and a Republican would be better right?

I think problem is with how basic is demand. Basic is food and nutrition? Fine, mushy food, tasteless but has all the proteins and carbs and vitamins should be available for free to everyone, but they must be Tasteless, textureless. No one should get tatsy FOOD. Shelter? Everyone must have comfy temperature place to sleep, but place to sleep, 2m x 0.5m x 0.5m should be made free for everyone. Maybe a 0.5m x 0.5m x 0.5m storage space for personal things. Healthcare should be available for everyone at all times. And it should be top tier and vast. Education should be available to everyone at all times. Prisons awaiting trials should be comfortable, but people condemned from the trial should be put to Labour. I think nothing else classifies as BASIC need. Taste is not a basic need. Entire house is not a BASIC need. Never give out cash to people in need. That’s my theory on finding balance between people unwilling to contribute to society because of benefits. And people doing terrible jobs because they don’t want to go hungry or need shelter or medical care. This way people are free to pursue ventures without the worry for BASIC needs.

Popper’s paradox of intolerance is something that is never discussed by online leftists. Why is that? How can you respect people who will put you in an oven the moment they gain power?

I don’t think they should. Live by the sword and all that.

It’d be nice if they just disagreed but instead they hate you for reasons made up by those who enjoy get richer off of people not having their needs met.

That’s my political view also. This is why I support free market capitalism, the system with most proven track record for getting us closer to that goal.
