      This shit makes me angry. They do it to anyone who doesn't fall in line lockstep with their orthodox, Neo-Christian right authoritarianism.

      I make videos about transgender folks deserving respect, the CSA's traitorous past, solving global warming, condemning political violence.

      But I too am smeared "alt-right" and "far right" because, why? I believe in small government and low taxes? They don't care about facts.

      No-one likes taxes. We just prefer them to there being people who have no access to schools, healthcare, shelter & food.

      You don't understand how the world works if you think taxes are what provide those things for people rather than human kindness

      You think hospitals, schools, housing & welfare benefits are paid for by kindness, not taxes?

      They are paid for by people who willingly take up those jobs and positions to help others. Non-profits are the majority of charity today

      Huh? They're not paid for by charities. They're paid for by taxes.

          You missed what I was saying. The vast majority of aid being given to the needy is done more through nonprofits that taxes/gov't.

          Why do you think so? The NHS costs about 116 billion pounds a year. Education is 85 billion. 74 billion on benefits. Can't find housing.

          Hospitals, low-income housing, food drives, etc. are done/funded way more by private groups than government
