Second image isn’t “good”, it is “nothing” with a thin bad outline.

Taking the meme too seriously, but its a common theme that i do want to counterpoint

The US government is way more, and way more good, and way beyond the scope of the whitehouse and the clowns in it, even with its tainting

Theres plenty wrong and bad, but to ignore the good both invalidates all the good works done that is silently ignored, and also spits in the face of the whole yinyang concept

If we only focus on the bad, and ignore all the good, what sort of feedback system does that create for ourselves? Were finding out i beleive.

Well, organizations like the Partnership for Public Service are not the government. What good are you refering to?

The AmeriKKKan government is unironically the most evil institution in all of history. It has committed several genocides, it has spread white supremacy and capitalism and pedophilia all across the globe, and it is leading the charge in destroying our entire ecology and all life on Earth. There’s no reforming an institution like that. AmeriKKKa is an existential threat to all life, and it always will be as long as this vile Empire is allowed to exist. Loyalty to AmeriKKKa is treason against life.

Counterpoint: Gov Taxes corporations, and because of that corporations hate Gov. Corporations bad, therefor, some Gov must be good.

The government taxes corporations as part of its mission to stabilize capitalism, i.e. to save the corporations from their own worst impulses. Capitalists say they hate the government, and indeed they sometimes individually clash with the State or its figureheads, but capitalists happily accept government money individually, and protection from the proletariat as a class.

And because the scope of government has increased, i.e. because governments simply do a lot more stuff than they used to, occasionally they do things that are decent or uncontroversial. In a truly free society, these things should be handled by freely associated groups operating in continuous alignment with and consent from their communities, operating without the pernicious influence of capital and other oppressive, hierarchical, authoritarian social structures.

In conclusion: corporations and governments are on the same team. Both deserve to be relegated to the dustbin of history ancom.

No, you said regulate them. Which would be a form of governance. Purely Semantics.

“Relegated” means “to consign to an inferior or obscure place, rank, or category”. And while I do not oppose governments regulating corporations or generally making their lives worse (🤡 on 🤡 “violence” from my perspective) while both refuse to die, I want to see them both “relegated to the dustbin of history”, i.e. abolished by the freed proletariat as part of an anarchist revolution.

My apologies, but that still sounds an awful lot like governing.

You could put capitalism but I guess that’s the same thing.
