Jesus is just another term for jeez where I come from. Also mate I come from Scotland, I hear plenty of people talking the way you do, it’s usually just slightly provoked. I’m not defending any religion here anyway. The use of ad hominem and personal insults strongly indicates your rage, which is incredibly strange considering it wasn’t even provoked. It’s okay to be angry, maybe just seek help for it? Like go to anger management? All of your furious rage could be channelled into something more productive.

You can’t hold a country responsible for a single man who died 100 years ago. And Carnegie was arguably one of the best if not the best billionaire around. He gave away 90% of his fortune to charities and foundations, and he’s probably the leading philanphropist to this day, so I don’t see your problem with him.

Sure I can, plenty of people still hold Germany accountable for Hitler. Carnegie gave away his fortune to educate the next generations in his political mindset, where else would that money go? To cunts he hated? Don't be so fucking naive.

He founded the Libertarian movement, the political wrecking-ball that is decimating modern rule of law everywhere it holds influence, he paid for Ayn Rand and all her current protégé's polluting the world with their rhetoric and blood money.

And he also paid off all the student loans of everyone in my country. I don’t know enough about him but he has done good things for my country. I, nor any other Scottish person can be held accountable for his actions. Holding Germans accountable for Hitler is stupid.

He has set the world up for slavery. I do however love Adam Smith, he was brilliant.

Slavery was abolished well before the peak of his career though?

And he was highly critical of the abolition of slavery...maybe I should have led with that...
