    i know liberals dont have a brain, but how bad must it be for fellow citizens until you accept that this car should not even exist in the first place as long as others have to live on the streets?

    maybe try this:

    1. are you for a more or less fair world?

    if your answer is yes, please proceed to question 2:

    1. how many people have access to a washing machine?

    you’ll notice: not even half of the people. and there are not enough metals on earth for everyone to have a washing machine.

    1. are you willing to give up you washing machine/car to prove you did not lie on question 1?

    so owning this sportscar always makes you the asshole. always. you can not be a humble nice person and own an R8. I double checked: 100% assholes.

      i know liberals dont have a brain,

      First I’m not a liberal (at least not how you’d likely conceive of liberalism), second if you have valid ideas you should be able to defend them without resorting to ad hominem.

      are you for a more or less fair world?

      Mostly a more fair world, but honestly fairness is not the point. If everyone can live with a millionaire’s quality of life and the ultra wealthy can’t exert outsized influence on society then I don’t care about the existence of the billionaire or even trillionaire. Yes, I know you can’t have both within capitalism, but my point is that eliminating the ultra wealthy is a means, not an end. Writing shit on a random guy’s car does nothing to improve the common person’s life. Also just to make that clear: Even assholes have rights.
