I don't think I've thought a thought, I think.

It's like their point is hovering right over your heads. You jump up to grab it and come down with this dumb **** conclusion because the other one doesn't make you feel good.

You have to realize that no matter how much pocket change you donate, no matter if you sell ALL of your material wealth and donate it to charity, you're just feeding it all into a system that will continue to suck dick.
I'm just trying to save you, bro.

How does anyone suppose we get universal basic income except through class struggle? The ruling class doesn't just hand out concessions, those are won through organizing and fighting.

That being said, I'm against UBI in any society that does not have a jobs guarantee. In this case, it will be used as a political tool for the capitalist class to cut welfare and avoid adressing unemployment. However, in a society with a jobs guarantee and in which the socially necessary labor time is reduced to a minimum, I am all for it.
