Not really...especially not cooercive collectivism. That's the cooercive part. When someone steals your stuff and laughs that it's been "reappropriated", that's pretty cooercive.

If you live in a society where you pay taxes which go towards paying for other peoples social security for instance, you're a collectivist because something is being taken from you by the state for the benefit of other members of the society.
Whether you like it or not Maggie, you're a collectivist just like the rest of us.

I wouldn't say there's anything coercive about it at all. Obviously you're again refering to the quote I've asked you about, and since I've already asked once where it was from, I don't see much point in asking again. Therefor, if you want to continue to refer to the same point to support your argument, you're not going to be making much sense from here on in.

Oh, I found it. I didn't realize you'd only taken a portion of the whole quote to support your argument.
Nothing further needs to be said since I'm pretty sure anyone else could have seen the humour in the post in its entirety. Even UG managed it.

What's next? Dangling participles? Split infinitives? :::afraid to post:::

Which, to respect the infinitive, is something up with which you should not put. But you want to rail about the justified use of deadly force while refusing to read the relevant law...that rises above mere disagreement.

The Right's generally braver, and understands correction better. It's called being grown up -- the Right just takes it better.

Right! The right is RIGHT and the left isn't right. It's just wrong. So don't go left, go right before you forget what's right and what's not.
