I don't disagree with a lot of what the Unabomber wrote. I don't disagree with this person's hatred of the healthcare system.
But you cannot assassinate your way out of capitalism.
It just does not work that way. You cannot assassinate corporations into putting people over profits when they are legally required to do the opposite and you cannot assassinate your way into a law being changed.
Not with that attitude you won't...
Not with any attitude regarding assassinating your way out of capitalism.
It simply will not work.
And if you think healthcare in America is going to get cheaper or fairer because of this, you know nothing about America.
Is there a historical precedent you can point to that proves your statement here?
Are you serious? How about World War I?
How about it? Literally nothing to do with ending capitalism. The assasination of Franz Ferdinand was done in the name of Serbian nationalism. How does it apply here? You are grasping at straws, try again.
Gavrilio Princip was an anarchist. Despite what libertarians might have you believe, they are not and never have been fans of capitalism. So no, I'm not.
Yeah, just nationalism and nothing else.
Some Princip quotes:
But those are just things he personally said, not a Wikipedia entry, so...
He worked with 6 other assasins, their stated goal was an independent Serbia... like it's not up for debate silly goose.
Sure, none of those things he literally said had anything to do what he actually believed.
What do you think the reason he wanted an independent Serbia was?
