Opposing the stimulus checks doesn't mean you shouldn't accept them.
Allow me to explain something to anyone and everyone who said that anybody who opposed the Covid stimulus packages shouldn't accept the checks.
The fact that we opposed the stimulus bills doesn't mean that we didn't have more money stolen from us as a result of you supporting it. Accepting the stimulus checks is just like accepting the standard tax refund. All we're doing is recouping what we can of what was stolen from us by that organized murder and pillage machine that you still think works for some reason.
If you think of taxes in the way that Andrew Yang or Warren Buffet do; namely, that tax day should be a national holiday and we should all be celebrating our contributions to the nation, you're the one who shouldn't be taking your refunds or your stimulus checks.
There's nothing hypocritical with taking the money since you do function within a set system.
At the same time, it kinda makes the point that inevitably there will always be a system and compromise in a group that's larger than just you being alone in the woods.
So really the only option we have is to keep discussing these ideas and try to work towards a better system that benefits the most amount of people.
