I don’t care. You can have that last word you so desperately crave.

It’s not good enough to get me interested discussing it further with you. You just keep repeating the same dumb, boring question. You think it’s a gotcha, but you haven’t thought about it even slightly.

Not good enough. You haven’t even wondered why.

If you had ever done a modest amount of the hard, actual, honest work of examining positions other than the standard one issued by your government, you would already be asking better, more interesting questions. You think that’s the only one you need to ask, don’t you?

I know you haven’t put the work in, because I have. I don’t owe you a debate. I doubt you have ever even changed your mind. So why should I give you the fruits of my labor? They wrote books, after all. Have you got the guts to read them?

Every single time, you claimed. Cite your sources. Do the work or fuck off, lazy-ass.

Somebody needs to learn not to blindly believe a century of capitalist propaganda. At least Wikipedia cites sources.

You made the claim. You said every single time. Citation required.

Somebody needs to learn to use Wikipedia.

Communism is exactly the opposite of that. You’re thinking of late stage capitalism.

When I think small town, I’m thinking a couple hundred people. I’ve never seen such stores there. Medium is a few thousand. They usually have one.

The nice thing is that there are millions of discs and players still out there. For anyone who prefers physical media and avoids streaming (this guy!) there is no shortage. Prices could stand to come down. But even if they do quit making them, there are lifetimes worth of vintage media, and newer isn’t always better.

Really? Because used media stores are booming all over the place. Stores that sell new and used records alongside CDs, Movies, and video games seem to be in every mid size town I pass through.
