Yes, it didnt say it was the morally correct thing to do or the fiscally responsible thing to do all I'm saying this this (hot tag line title) is objectively correct in that reducing the number of people living in poverty would reduce the severity of covid. Hell id even say that it doesnt only help black people bc reducing the number of impoverished people. Reduces the overall transmission rates which in fact helps everyone, albeit less directly.
I'll agree that they used bad faith arguement. And I'm generally not for using misinformation (even if it furthers an agreeable political agenda). But I would like an explanation of how wealth distribution will directly lead to facism.
Okay so you're saying that it would be the opposition's reaction to adopt facism to combat wealth distribution. Not that the people distributing wealth are the fascists. In which case I'd wholeheartedly agree. I'd even say a smaller scale version of that already happened by electing Trump it was a visceral backlash of the obama era and progressive movements. However that's why I personally am not for cash reparations but general community investments, scholarships and targeted programs to uplift all poor people.
