The snek is socialist too (Only a little, but still).
How can an animal not known for forming societies or groups who only want to not be stepped on be socialist? Though tbf garter snakes are one of the few species known to form social groups so they are definitely a socialist threat but the other types of snakes are incapable of socialism.
The attorney that the snek provides will doubly do you over.
It's a snek trap made to look inviting but, like the scorpion, it is what it is.
Even libertarians are not anarchists. All political ideology is really the measure of how much liberty you are willing to surrender, and is tied to how well you understand the nature of man - for the intelligent human.
For leftist vermin, it's not about surrendering their own liberty, for they imagine themselves as the ruling class of their system. It's about how much they want to take from others.
That's not socialist - it's saying that the government cannot do A alone, only A+B together. If the government does not hold you for questioning, they incur no obligation to provide you legal counsel. It's no different than saying that the government has to give you food if they put you in jail.
Perhaps the parameters of the term 'prison' have to be tested here.
If someone is in jail they get free food, rent, healthcare and education - even though a court deemed them not worthy to be in the general law abiding population for a spell.
If someone is in the general law abiding population they have to pay for food, rent, healthcare and education.
If a capitalist starting out with nothing wanted to maximise their potential then going to jail would be the best way to get all the benefits from the system which would otherwise cost them time and money.
Their transformation from criminal into a healthy, fit and educated member of society came at expense to the taxpayer.
This is a direct copy from the socialist model only it solely benefits those found to be criminal enough to put in jail by the system.
If this was to be flipped then 'indentured labour' would be prison time and law abiding citizens could claim that they themselves are in a form of slavery and demand the same benefits.
Enough of a reasonable compromise when it's the government aggressing with criminal charges and having the control over who gets to be an attorney through legal requirements, thus having an incentive to make it unreasonably expensive to defend yourself legally.
But yes it is technically redistribution.
