Standard Issue Steel Frame Hybrid, like straight up the most boring "european man on a bicycle" thing imaginable

Even scholars whose theories aged far better like Darwin and Newton are similarly unreadable

I like to hit people with some variation of:

A couple years ago I hired a guy to patch my roof. Now I'm selling my house. How much of the proceeds should I give him?

People start twisting themselves in knots real fast with that example. They generally understand and accept home ownership even if they can't afford it but they simply can NOT empathize with equity holders otherwise.

Did you not pay your roofer wtf

tbh I want to quote that to a lot more people on account of how fucking correct it is but it does make me look like a serial killer with an atrocious haircut

I mean seriously all the rules you like have been adhered to and you're still mad, the fuck do you want

Always remember kids: all political ideologies justify violence. No exceptions.

I think some thoughts of Anarchist opt for a "let the community deal with it" approach to whatever that doesn't necessarily justify violence in the sense of any other ideology and I don't mean this as an attack

boiled down to "you worked on a thing, so you deserve the entire revenue of that thing", which obviously isn't true. Like, if your employer lends you a hammer for free, shouldn't he be entilted to some of the profits that the hammer creates?

Good god the layers on this

This is just unncessarily verbose horseshoe theory because the underlying critcism is that everybody against the status quo is basically the same

I got snow tyres with spikes for my bicycle and oh my god dude this shit rules so hard. Pedestrians envy me, car drivers fear me because nobody knows this option exists and as such assumes I'm pulling some miracle shit to not eat massive shit on my bicycle riding the iced out streets

Like seriously I've had cars coming the other way just straight up stop in their tracks upon seeing me (which I commend, that is good, defense driving, even if unnecessary in this instance but how would you tell) and see the drivers look agasp at me as I swiftly navigate the iced out roads they're spinning their tyres on

This is how jesus musta felt when he walked on water

Fuck it, every poperty that doesn't fit in your pocket

What are you gonna do, call the state you pay for when somebody takes your TV? Huh, sounds like you're not owning that shit on account of not having a marauding band of mercenaries to defend it

basically, property rights are stupid, you don't own shit anyways and that's not even getting into asseit forfeiture or whatever

Don't think the US has arrived at the point where tricked-out-ride doesn't make sense anymore
