Which are, naturally, nothing more than a collection of useless parasites and high-society leftists.

They act as if we should just go ahead and shut them all down. Why not?

But before we do that, let’s suggest we stop giving anything to the church for a thousand years while handing these groups 10% of the GDP every single year, and then we can draw a line in the sand and see who actually survives.

What classic leftist rhetoric, right? 🤣

Yet, somehow, these idle workers from non-profit organizations manage to boast about having millions of members.🤷

It’s always the same story: five scruffy slackers gather at a bar, decide to form some parasitic association based on "philosophy," and suddenly they think they deserve 10% of the federal budget.🙏

I’ll tell you what the difference is: I say "shut everyone down," whereas the lefties only want to "shut down" specific people. That’s the real distinction, isn't it?

Look, the government isn't even going to exist in this exact form for another thousand years, so I don't really get why you're making that comparison. Honestly, from the moment you define what a modern state is, most of that old structure has basically been scrapped. In America, things changed massively back in the mid-1800s. I mean, if we're gonna start drawing weird parallels like that, I guess we could just demand money from the government because our ancestors lived under feudalism too.

Anthony Jackson2 said:They didn't lose a damn thing, if you don't mind me saying. Half of what they "lost" was actually handed over by Ante Pavelić—but hey, there's no law in America regarding the restitution of property seized during the Independent State of America era. We should all probably ask ourselves why that is.

All those massive estates in California have been returned, and they’ve been paid over $15 billion because of it—with that number climbing every single year. Not to mention all their other perks.

So, people wonder why there's such resistance when it comes to the IK. If we let them keep drafting our laws, we'll hit rock bottom even faster than we are now. The Church has become a societal tumor—intellectually and economically—all thanks to the power they've been granted.

That’s just not true. Most of that property was stripped from Jewish families, and what they mostly owned were apartments where people like Kekin and his crew live now, or shops, small businesses, and factories. I honestly can't imagine how the clergy would even know how to run a factory or a local business.

I don't buy the idea that getting property back from the days of the Independent State of America is impossible; it's just that the lunatics of that era murdered the original owners and their descendants.

Honestly, I’d just cut off all the funding to those leftard parasite sectors entirely and dump that cash straight into the Church instead. Let them deal with the headache and get an ulcer from it. ☕

No, we shouldn't be subsidizing one-track minds like they ☕

Let's just scrap them all; if people want something, let them earn it or buy it themselves.

Honestly, I’d just scrap the whole system, take everyone’s budget away, and hand the keys to Misho to manage the cash myself. 😁

Sure, why not let Misho run the show? At least the guy actually delivers results. ☕

But what, precisely, constitutes a "leftist platitude"?

Oh, you know, it's just the idea that a tiny little non-profit organization with maybe 300 members somehow holds some historical right to receive massive amounts of funding—just so they can play on equal footing with organizations that have millions of members. Why? Because that's just... hmm... "fair," right?

What’s actually fair is for all of them to collectively drain the budget so we don't end up looking like a tiny, bankrupt Greece.

The non-profit sector consisting of 300 members—specifically those organizations you seem to take issue with—doesn't even receive a fraction of what the Church receives.
You tend to dump all the funding onto the very associations you dislike (which, by the way, includes a massive number of religious groups).
The Church would be the first to revolt if all non-profits were stripped of government funding, because they would lose an incredible amount of money in the process.

Even if the Church did revolt, frankly, I couldn't care less. ☕ I'd pull the funding for everyone.

And when you look at the numbers, the disparity in funding is actually much smaller than the disparity in membership.

What kind of membership are we talking about?
Are you referring to the general population count?
Because that’s hardly what constitutes actual membership.

I’m actually on Nina's side when it comes to these associations; check out this six-minute video if you have a second. Now, I know she paints Markićka as some sort of revolutionary fighting against the Non-profit Organization mafia—and look, I get why that might make your blood boil—but please watch the clip because I think she’s slightly twisting her guest's words. Personally, I can't stand the woman or her organization because they insist on shoving their opinions down everyone's throats, harassing us with all sorts of nonsense, and honestly, they've completely trashed the Constitution and made life significantly harder for our fellow LGBTQ+ citizens.
Mind you, I did sign off on that other referendum regarding the voting rules.

I’m talking about church membership—honestly, I'm not sure how much clearer I can make that for you! 🤷
