re: I wish socialism could work

The theory is honestly quite beautiful. But, this world we find ourselves in is unfortunately an unequal place. High output humans will never want to share their productivity with the lazy or less fortunate, at least not at scale.


People need to understand that:

1) the architects of communism considered socialism a transitional (not permanent) phase on the way to implementation of communism.

2) communism is about much more than just economic/production policy.

There are plenty of socialist programs I don't agree with as well. I don't think we should tax billionaires at 100%, but would like to see another tier of the tax system at very high levels.




How about the socialist program of flooding the country with immigrants who only come here for benefits (which are taken from your pay check) and will never assimilate, then pushing them into subsidized/free housing and schools, displacing Americans and making schools unuseable in the process?

It is funny to watch people justify their support of Conservative policies that continue to import debt and export profits.


If your suggestion is that conservative policy caused some debt to be taken on and that some profit was exported, you are correct.

The bar for conservatives is not perfection (and they are far from it in practice), but you wouldn’t vote for actual conservative policy anyway, so your point is meaningless.

Conservatives are at least taking some measures to try to right the ship with programs (that the left is literally violently against) like DOGE and deportation of generational debt that we incurred by the 10s of millions 2021-2025.

Have you seen “the left” lately?
Three pages in, and only one has even attempted to justify the ideology they support.

They know it’s completely absurd and can’t stand up to scrutiny, but ultimately they don’t care and will keep voting for it. This is exactly what communism intends to do.

Oh, and social/communism is much more than just economic theory.

No reasonable argument can be made that maga has “taken off” further right than the democrats have left.

I think the word socialist and socialism has kind of lost all meaning with how the right tries to weaponize it.


Mao, Stalin, Chavez, pol pot, castro, Ho Chi Minh, Kim jong il, Che guevara, Nicolae Ceausescu, lesser known (but very violent) leaders in Ethiopia, Mozambique, Angola, Zimbabwe.

Yeah, the right has really weaponized the movement.

I mean I'm not for forced teaching of all things related but this seems like it is just teaching being nice to others. I'm not sure what there is to be against. I think plenty of people here could use a lesson on just being nice to others instead of thinking everyone not like you is the devil.


It’s always sold as just being nice, until you are made to bake the cake, isn’t it?

If this was “just teaching being nice” they wouldn’t need a pride week FOR ELEMENTARY SCHOOL STUDENTS to do so, would they? Do you really think people haven’t figured this out yet?

Where do drag queens (with a record of prostitution) fit into teaching being nice?

Show me where in Texas schools are forced to teach pride and I will disagree with it.


I see from your post history that you’re a talarico supporter. So while you may “disagree with it” here to deflect from the hypocrisy in your position, you will vote for it.

Here is Austin ISD pride week, since you asked: https://defendinged.org/incidents/austin-independent-school-district-celebrates-decade-of-pride-in-march-promotes-lgbtq-activities-for-elementary-students/

It isn’t enough to try to remain neutral with respect to your troon agenda (we tried that and ended up with the link above), society must actively be on offense to try and prevent it.

This is the problem with introducing religion to school. You are now having the government push one religion in particular when it should be staying out of it entirely. If you are bothered if you replace bible won't quran or Christianity with any random religion, you don't support religion in schools, you just support your own beliefs in schools. Just because you have faith in some religion it doesn't allow you to force your faith on everyone else.


Can you please link me to your outrage over schools forcing “pride” garbage on students, or even passing laws to hide student gender transition from parents?

On some level which they can’t acknowledge, they understand this. But it’s mashed deep down by their desire to see America destroyed.

Now you’re starting to understand.

You do realize that your being too nice and giving all viewpoints classroom time was weaponized against you and is exactly why they are able to unapologetically push tranny agendas in public schools, taught by people who hate you, right?

Depends how and what is taught. Christian school or church undoubtedly push some people away from religion too. Doesn’t mean they aren’t net positives society, because they fill a void that would otherwise be filled by something else worse.

quote:

At worst, teach all religions


Giving every movement equal time is how we ended up in the situation we are in now because it allowed communists to get their foot in the door.

I am neither a Christian, communist, or Muslim, but your post is bullshìt.

The vacuum created by removing Christianity has brought in religious movements which are MUCH worse, like the religion of BLM, climate change, socialism, and lgbtq.

Did you ever acknowledge how the cold is much more deadly to Europeans than heat (which you refer to as climate change)?
