      I'll just say it: I don't believe in that at all, so "they" are an heterogeneous group. I think there's a lot of out-group down-sampling in this thread.

      That's true, but if you look at the history of e.g. the Russian Revolution it's full of "useful idiots", the same is also true of the rise of Hitler. At some point you become a cell in the body of the leftist egregore, and the wishes of the cell matter little.

      You could argue we are all part of many egregores, though -- some (all?) of them are bound to do their independent bidding. I'm a leftist willingly, but we are a diverse group with many different opinions. I align with libertarian socialism most of all.

      To exert independent will as a leftist right now I think you have to vote for Trump, oppose immigration & woke, and once things have stabilised back to the politics of ~2000 make plays for sound left-wing ideas like progressive taxation/UBI in America & peace with China.

      I'm cutting to the chase; global, likely privately backed UBI and a communism-capitalism synthesis (symbiosis?) sums me up currently honestly.

      Replying to @flancian @Grumpy_Hoosier and

      Global UBI probably won't work because it will create too many perverse incentives. UBI can work in small, homogeneous countries like pre-immigration Sweden. In the USA that's already pushing it, but it might be possible if immigration is cut to 0.

      Might be. Seems like it's worth a try, though: having it be global allows for 1. exploiting economic gradients; 1st world pays for 3rd world within groups with weak national identities (e.g. socialism). 2. circumventing default national identities, usually polar (e.g. dems/rep).

      How hard is it to get a like with your crowd? ;) Like, am I really so alone in finding these ideas, if not wholly reasonable, at least an interesting possibility? Or is it that people are against UBI? It seems like such a reasonable thing to at least *try* to me.

      UBI is a total poison pill coming from the left. Someone gets canceled and his UBI checks stop and he objects; the reply to people defending him: "You mean you support UBI for *Nazis*? Are you a Nazi?" It's a blatant desire to create dependence so it can be used for control

      Mmm, you know what, I think that could happen but it sounds unlikely. We could make UBI resistant against ideological attacks.

      "Resistant to ideological attack? You're defending taxpayer funded violent Nazi extremism?" You can't make anything resistant against ideological attack because leftists claim any resistance is an attack so any "rules" you set up will have no defenders.

          Friend, having had plenty of conversations with both extremes and all in between, the distinction is minimal in terms of the amount of productive conversation you can have. It's less 'left's or 'right' and more 'reasonable' and not.
