I'll start, I missed the outdoor cats struggle session so i don't know what its deal was except a vague idea that outdoor cats were bad, so I've let my two cats stay being outdoor cats because I feel bad locking them inside, like I want to give them some experience of freedom to go where they please so they can live more fulfilling lives

Edit: also kruschev is imo a lot better than most hexbear users give him credit for

I think dogs should be allowed to stay outside all day provided they have shelter and lots of water.

idk I'm trying to think of a really good one but I can't come up with anything.

How about "Reading Marx is revisionist because Socialism is supposed to be scientific and relying too much on a "golden age" of theory is akin to reactionary thinking"? Is that anything?

Ooh that could be a good one. Could also just have the revisionism one, since almost nobody agrees where the line is there, it's like arguing with people anywhere between Idaho and Missouri what "midwest" means.

Revisionism is when I don't like other communists, and the more I don't like them the more revisionist they are.

Midwest ends at the Mississippi then its just wasteland until you get to Cascadia and California.

See this is what I mean, a lot of people contend that Nevada and other places just east of California/Oregon/Washington don't count.

I think St. Louis is Midwest

Through the immortal science I have determined Marx was wrong about everything because he died and therefore can't lead revolution.

I feel like that's just answered by Mao's "Against Book Worship".

If they want to, sure. But chaining them up outside and leaving them there all day or just never letting them inside isn’t good.
