If you are waiting... you are waiting on yourself...

Try READING what I wrote... It's really not that hard to understand... and it is perfectly well grounded in historical FACT... in every element...

I've made plenty enough of that effort in elaboration already... and it is neither abstract nor utopian... all others I've explained it to... understand it easily enough...

Suggests the problem is... you don't want to understand it... as it conflicts with your choices in how you prefer to misunderstand the world...

It is as simple as... "the right rules... properly enforced"...

Which not only "works"... it does so while generating social cohesion rather than destroying it... as you insist must occur... while insisting that "killing people to force compliance" with "your way"... is the only path to enabling success... in spite of ample evidence... as millions of dead bodies... proving that doesn't work ?

The opposite of what you believe... is true. You are wrong about "people" and wrong about "society"... wrong in theory, and wrong in practice... but are more than willing to kill people in the effort to ensure "division" is sustained... as that is required to avoid "social cohesion" occurring... as that will work in denying power to anti-social bad actors ?

The problem that mine generates for you... is that mine requires you acknowledging that the failures of policy we do see occurring in "not the utopia" we live in... are the result of ignorance and BAD CHOICES... often forced on us by idiots knowingly imposing "the wrong rules" on us... and/or deliberately failing in enforcing the rules... to profit personally from the creation of failure and greater social division...

The problems apparent in Chicago, or San Francisco... didn't "just happen"... or happen because someone outside those communities "forced" the failure they've created on them ? They did it to themselves...

"More rules"... without proper limits in attachment to principle... and thus more threats of violence... doesn't EVER improve anything... as naturally occurs when "the rules" generated aren't ones that people generally agree on IN PRINCIPLE... But, not rocket science... corrupt people making rules to benefit themselves at others expense... and generating more problems in order to demand more "rules" and more money... doesn't "make things better"... ?

Chicago... has some of the toughest "gun control" laws on the planet... and, even on a good day... it is a more violent place than... Beiruit... Sa'ana... or Kabul ? Why is that ? Probably... because the failure of governance defined by making the wrong rules... and failing to enforce the right ones... means people don't really give a shit what rules you make ?

That I speak of principle...as the only proper basis for "the right rules"... and that having that as the basis or rule making is necessary for fostering social cohesion... doesn't make "the right rules" utopian ?

It, instead, points out that efforts made in AVOIDING that... are dystopian...

The results we can see in the "not utopia" we live in... provides proof enough of that ?

And, now you are making noises... pretending your inability or unwillingness to listen or understand... is my problem... ?

It isn't...

But, your approach to claiming ignorance in your inability to understand... isn't surprising.

Your position... what you advocate... requires that you must claim to NOT understand it... as understanding it both exposes you as a fraud... and requires that you are seeking to advance your own interest at others expense... while choosing to be divisive and destructive of others opportunity... instead of working to enable them in making progress.

And, that's not anything "new" either... just basic Marxism 101 bullshit... being recycled now... as stupid now as it ever was...

But, I did note that the voters of Chicago have recently decided they've had enough of that brand of stupidity... ?

Every time its been tried it has failed... and every time the excuse given is "the wrong people were in charge"...

And, that's always true... because anyone delusional enough to believe Marxism can work... is by definition going to be "the wrong people being put in charge"...

Marxists try to elevate ignorance to an art form as a tactic...

But... that's stupid, too...

So... give us one more angry racist rant... and call it a day ?
