    Like… nice deflection and if you don’t want to continue the argument, that’s fine, but… Is that it?

    All that contrarian shit and accusing me of strawmanning and all that and it ends with an insincere, sarcastic comment?

      Yeah. After thinking about it, it’s not like the USA will ever have a revolution as much as a forced civil war, if it happens, and then violence would be inevitable.

      So arguing about a utopia that can’t peacefully happen is really redundant.

        Still not getting your point. Not sure you used “redundant” correctly here.

        You do know that there’s more that the US in the world, right?

          Yes, but considering most of the world at least has some form of nationalized healthcare already, including UK, Canada, and Australia, and the commentary is in English, it really narrows the likelihood that you and most others are talking about the USA.

          I know it isn’t here in Finland you’re talking about at least.

              Everyone can’t get quality healthcare if you can’t afford healthcare in the first place at all.

                  It can be one of the goals. Pretty sure it was for Cuba actually for example. And many times it comes about from one as well, like, again, Finland

                    But why would you think that everyone’s talking about the US here? I have national healthcare and still I’m a revolutionary.
