AOC is socialist. Is that bad?

A Republican wouldn't know a socialist if one descended from heaven and fed fish to a crowd.

 

They know us better than Progressives do, by a solid margin.

 

A democrat wouldn't know a socialist if one crushed him with a T-34.

 

Republicans are very paranoid. They think evolutionary biologists and climate scientists conspire against their worldview. They think Democrats are spying on them. They think there's a "shadow government." Etc, etc.

 

Oh those crazy republicans. Let's laugh at them together.

 

I don't laugh at you guys. I worry over what you'll do to this country.

 

"You guys"? I'm not a republican. I spit on republicans.

 

socialism is about equality and equal protection of the law, not the subjective value of morals.

 

I said nothing about 'morals'.

Meantime, equality is exactly what I'm referring to. We ALL have the same opportunity .. to choose the hard road to self-made wealth, or the easy road to poverty.

 

They can only think in childlike black and white terms.

 

Simple minds can only think simple thoughts.

Edit: But that's the sad thing. Their simple minds think that the initiation of violence is the only way to achieve their ends.

 

capitalism has a natural rate of unemployment that burdens the Poor the most.

 

I had one say I couldn't be a Lefty because I'm anti-abortion (I'm also pro-choice, but that's another story). As though the Left is some kind of religious cult in which everyone must think and feel exactly the same thoughts and feelings about everything.

 

But, but, but...the left is all about diversity, right?

 

Last century.

It's like selling coca-cola by advertising its cocaine content. You can't keep the same PR line long after the ingredients change.

 

Now, the left is all about control. Libido dominandi

 

The creep towards religionism started when we could see the light at the end of the injustice tunnel (which would bring with it our redundancy - something we should have welcomed). It picked up speed when the last t was crossed and last i dotted - gay marriage. We no longer had a practical application, so a new purpose was found (of course, we could have moved quietly on with pragmatics .. like our own personal contributions to climate change, the outstanding matter of Third World poverty, the establishing of new fuel technologies, space exploration, cures for deadly diseases, war prevention, etc etc etc. But no, that would mean getting our hands dirty, and besides, it doesn't provide instant ego gratification the way Virtue Signalling does). It necessarily had to be an ideological purpose, since we'd quit pragmatics. Vanities all the way, from there on in.

 

LOL - Reagan Saved us from WW3 ?? that is some imagination you have. The only time we got close to WW3 was under Kennedy - the Cuban Missile Crisis.

Russia's had the ability to annihilate the US many times over with nukes during Reagan's day and they still have that ability. None of this changed under Reagan and wasting massive amounts of money on conventional armaments did not save us from Russian nukes.

Now do you understand how silly your claims are

 

Reagan won and ended the cold war and ended the threat of nuclear annihilation. His genius was telling them their system was an immoral failure and by spending on star wars to neutralize the missile threat, something the libcommie system could not afford to do. Then his example freed 1.4 billion in China from liberal communism. The greatest American of all time by far after Jefferson.



"Let us bow before Ronald Reagan for the fact that our generation was able to bring an end to the great divisions and conflicts of the world," Mr Walesa said in a ceremony in the heart of the Polish capital Warsaw.

"What happened seemed impossible or unthinkable. The older generations still remember," the Nobel Peace laureate said.

A handsome, stylized 'park bench' monument dedicated to Cold War victor Ronald Reagan was unveiled in the former Soviet republic of Georgia yesterday. The country's pro-Western, American-educated president Mikhail Saakashvili proclaimed that the work 'deserves a place in the heart of Tblisi' as he and his countrymen seek to honor Reagan for 'destroying the Soviet empire'. He also took the opportunity to lament what he sees as Vladimir Putin's attempts torestore that lost empire.

 

he supported Federal Reserve system. You may be only nut job in world to think the man who did the most in human history for freedom is a commie.

 

Good grief this is abject nonsense. Not sure what fantasy world you are living in but, for those of us who are living in this world .. Nuclear weapons still exist and Russia has enough of them to annihilate the US many times over.

Star Wars did not neutralize the threat ?? You have no clue what you are talking about.

 

Yes, when Reagan threatened to develop missile defense system to neutralize soviet missiles Gorby came to the table knowing that he could not afford to match our spending. It was a stroke of genius, and of course resisted by liberals.

Reagan made them think we were about to render Russian missiles useless. Soviets knew they could not afford to better missiles or their own star wars system! Simple enough for you?

 

You have no clue what you are talking about. Star wars was a complete failure and Russia still has enough nukes to annihilate the US several times over.

Your claim that Reagan ended the treat of nuclear annihilation is complete fantasy .. on every level.

 

maybe, but at time Gorby did not know it would fail so he came to the table and ended libcommieism in USSR. Simple enough for gifted one to understand?
