The identity politics, the government bailouts, the tax-raising, the “diversity and inclusion” (racism), the free tuition, the “enforcement mechanism”...
That’s a lie, I have said plenty on all of the above topics. Unfortunately you’re blinded by your hatred, as are most, and you all will tear down this...
I hate to generalize, but yes, pretty much. I have seen little that isn’t gossip, conspiracy theory, or political correctness, all of it compounded by...
Not the same barbarities, just the same bad ideas. Besides, capitalists shouldn’t defend communists lest they lose ther capitalism membership, right? ...
There is a point that trade and capital have been a part of the human experience since prehistoric times. On these grounds I would argue that trade an...
That’s fair if it was sarcastic. The word “socialism” is often used wrong in the US. This is not only true of anti-socialists, but of self-proclaimed ...
The irony is the only way to “remove white privilege” is to believe the same as the racist, except to discriminate “positively”. First you must believ...
Yet you said the “the greatest socialist country that has ever existed on the face of the earth”, which is the biggest load of shite anyone has ever w...
Trying to draw a circle around who is or isn’t a Marxist or communist is a fools errand. If people call themselves Marxists or communists, however, it...
That’s nonsense. They may benefit from the current economic hegemony, like Marx and everyone here, but they spread the gospel of Marx wherever they go...
There are plenty of communists. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_communist_parties The history speaks for itself. So why would we shy away from c...
I never said it was a democratic movement. In fact I said the opposite. My point was that the nationalization of property didn’t result in the conditi...
Like I already said, it was given to the peasantry. No, they were not “democratic nationalizations”, which I think is a nonsense phrase. Since we’re a...
Mao was a Marxist-Leninist communist by his own admission. Article one of the Chinese constitution clearly states that “The People’s Republic of China...
Mao was a devout Marxist who sought to bring about communism. It’s right there in everything he wrote. No need for the revisionism. He and his revolut...
I was more so speaking about Marx’s idea of the nationalization of land. Mao saw such a necessity, nationalized the land—a euphemism for the confiscat...
We can review past situations where the nationalization of property has occurred, for instance in Mao’s land reforms, and find that these types of “in...
I really like your thinking here. Nicely said. I will just say, though, that inspiration is followed by a choice, some sort of follow-through, which b...
I’m just telling you what I believe, not what you ought to believe. What do you believe? Sure, one must change his conduct to align with his morality....
I got out of it a bad argument for antinatalism, or “never being born being optimal”, which you stated before you started playing “would you rather” w...
I did really read it. I figured the gist of it, beyond the jargon and labelling, was that if you prefer sleep to being awake you would probably prefer...
I love sleep, but sleep is so much better after a fulfilling day. So I do not think trading being awake for being asleep is very wise, because one req...
I believe you can choose your own morality. One can be convinced of the value of certain moral principles, the danger of others, and can alter his bel...
Yes if you afford someone rights you thereby have a duty not to break them. Your right to free speech is my duty not to censor you, and so on. I accep...
I don’t believe some legislator knows how to run my business better than I do. Likewise, I don’t need nor want the state to step in where my own emplo...
People can leave their jobs as countless people have proven. Whether they have the confidence to do so is another question. Either way, no policy can ...
If you cannot find the strength and courage to alter your situation, I can understand why you wish you were never born to begin with. But things can c...
And you show your susceptibility to the basest of propaganda. The only ones seeking to alter the USPS and the election are the democrats, and this is ...
Neither you or I can tell another how to seek his own well-being, for how to live one’s life is best left for him to decide. That is why one must be a...
I think the opposite is the case: the overvalued (and abstract) notions of community are acted out at the expense of individual freedom and liberty. A...
Spread the word of liberty and break through the Great Firewall. As the Hong Kong protesters and the ‘89 democracy movement showed, people want it and...
A story you won’t see on CNN, who doesn’t even mention it, is the election fraud in NJ. https://www.njherald.com/news/20200630/its-mess-paterson-voter...
