For somebody who can't get jokes without an "/s" - surely.
For others a sentence starting with "that really was unfair" and equating copyright and age of consent is clearly a joke.
Other than that I don't need to "play off" anything for ya, we're not in any connection which would make it important.
Now let's get back to totalitarian dictatorships, hunger, genocides, freedom of speech, freedom of conscience, due process and all that.
"Age of consent and copyright are two issues on which libertarians are split" doesn't come across as a joke without an "/s" because it's functionally identical to an argument a libertarian would unironically make. If that doesn't tell you it's a thoroughly unserious ideology, I don't know what would.
Freedom of speech? You mean like the Western kind of that coddles Nazis instead of throwing them in a pit?
Totalitarian dictatorships? You mean like Chiang Kai-shek's Taiwan, the military dictatorships of South Korea, Argentina or Brazil, Pinochet's Chile, fascist Italy, Nazi Germany and Francoist Spain?
Some French communists would unironically make that argument in 1960s.
It also coddles tankies, if you know what I mean.
Yeah, those included.

Let's add McCarthyism to that list and point out that there's still technically a law that forbids communist parties in the US. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communist_Control_Act_of_1954
Not sure about average US citizen, but I know how average and even well off Soviet citizens ate.
You do realize that lots of food produced in USSR would just rot not reaching anybody purely because of logistics being fucked up? People wouldn't die from hunger caused by poverty there in its fatter years, yes, here you are right. But, say, army would get plenty of malnourished conscripts (actually most of them), it was as normal as in XIX century.
You are trying to prove that USSR was as bad as everyone else? With Afghanistan and all?.. I may agree, so?
The key word here is "can" as opposed to "will be as a rule".
Again, are you trying to prove USSR was as bad as everyone else? In general yeah. Only designed the way that it failed.
Their billionaires are almost officials. Their properties and power can be taken away any time. They can receive orders and they will follow them.

Good.
Which just means that key party figures are the real billionaires there. And they live and behave like such more or less.

"The billionaires can be punished for doing bad things."
"I dunno, sounds pretty good to me."
"But this means the party were the real billionaires all along ( ?)"
