Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.
Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

How are you gonna bribe people if you're always screwing everyone over?
The traditional way is to not take any from the bodyguards and instead give them part of what I'd take from you, or directly task them with taking part of your food in exchange for a cut, while having them control each other and compete for my favor. Meanwhile, you'd have it harder to bribe anyone with what you had left if you don't want to starve.
Unless... are you stronger than others? Do you want to be a bodyguard and get a cut from taking food from others? 😏
