>Spicy unpopular opinions only

Space and Time don't actually exist as something that does something
Light doesn't travel
Particles don't exist

Oh wait you said opinions

>Sorry kid. Underaged people cant just run around whenever they want
Not what I'm arguing

>You arent because you can leave when you want to.
> Underaged people cant just run around whenever they want

>Yes and as a citizen you have a duty to help the place. Otherwise you can leave.
>pursuit of happiness means helping everyone else more lazy than you
A "right" cannot be taken nor granted under the natural law.

>But if you dont want your money to be "stolen" then leave.
So it is theft? Thank you. That's what the argument was about the whole time.

>The government was here before you therefore you are on its property
the government consists of people who represent me so therefore it's my land as well.

>No it's more like renting a house.
I am essentially a part of the government therefore I am the landlord.

>You signed the deal to live on someone's property.
This is a false equivalency argument.

>Fact that you're not fighting some island lemur over food means that you are benefiting from living in society rather than in the middle of the Pacific.
No it means I'm minding my business by letting uneducated retards fight over their own emotions. If everyone did this then there wouldn't be a problem.

>If you're so mad about living in society, just leave. Make sure to take everything with you.
You've provided good arguments supporting why and how it can be beneficial but you fail and understand the primer to all of that. It IS theft no matter what way you try and disguise it so it's better to not disguise it at all and just acknowledge the truth of the matter. "Taxations is theft, but that's a good thing and here is why.." is a more proper argument than flat out denying what it actually is then trying to reify the shadow you've made.

>It's not theft because you are willingly subjecting yourself to it.
No part of it is "Willing".

Stupid, dumb, western existentialist scum.

>virtue can be explained to a materialist in a few paragraphs

If that were the case then the works of Plato or any other metaphysics would fit on a business card. You can start with "the golden rule" I suppose but you're probably just gonna continue using the choice insult of a woman.

>i can tell you for a fact that if i put an ice cube into a glass of water, it's gonna float, not sink to the bottom.
On earth, in space however the water will surround the ice. "Floating" is ultimately no longer an empirical fact so "ice floating in water" makes absolutely no sense.
Also you're talking about two different qualities of the same thing; water. You have presented absolutely no empirical facts because what you are talking about is completely qualitative.

>In January 1998, the collaborative ice-drilling project between Russia, the United States, and France at the Russian Vostok station in East Antarctica yielded the deepest ice core ever recovered, reaching a depth of 3,623 m (Petit et al. 1997, 1999). Ice cores are unique with their entrapped air inclusions enabling direct records of past changes in atmospheric trace-gas composition

>According to Barnola et al. (1991) and Petit et al. (1999) these measurements indicate that, at the beginning of the deglaciations, the CO2 increase either was in phase or lagged by less than ~1000 years with respect to the Antarctic temperature, whereas it clearly lagged behind the temperature at the onset of the glaciations.

Axial precession is indeed why the climate changes, doesn't have to be over a period of 26k years though. This is why we have what are called "seasons", the earth is tilted...obviously because it precesses. Man induced climate change is a meme. Man has nowhere near the coherency and power of a churning planet and space.
