I'll admit, that's a well made drawing. But I can't help but feel that she's the liberal version of Ben Shapiro. I would LOVE for them to get into a debate.
5 ups, 6y
She would be destroyed by Shapiro. Oh, and the drawing if from a comic book staring AOC being put out by some left-wing group.

socialism doesn't work?
you say this as if you are absolutely certain of this fact,as if it were self evident.
ignoring the very obvious fact,for those who actually understand economic systems,that even in America,we have a hybrid system of both capitalism and socialism policies.

so your declaration that "socialism doesn't work" is not only factually incorrect,it is silly.

as for fascistic elements in our government,that was me engaging in hyperbole to a possible future.
both the hard right and hard left political elements in our society can very easily slip into fascism.

are we currently a fascist state?
no.
is there a danger?
yes,and we need to be aware of that fact.

so there you go my friend.
I took the time to refute your claims.
are ya happy now?
wanna cuddle?

"socialism doesn't work?

ignoring the very obvious fact,for those who actually understand economic systems,that even in America,we have a hybrid system of both capitalism and socialism policies" Socialism has failed in every place that it has been tried. It didn't work in Russia, China, Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, Cuba, Venezuela, etc. Now we don't have a hybrid system in the US because this country runs under a system that would never allow any of the ten planks that Marx called for. "as for fascistic elements in our government,that was me engaging in hyperbole to a possible future.
both the hard right and hard left political elements in our society can very easily slip into fascism." You clearly only implied right-wingers.

could you maybe break that up a little?
or punctuate?

Christ that was hard to read.

look man,you are free to believe whatever you want to believe.

I was poking rightwingers because I wanted to.
if you "identify" as a "rightwinger" then I suggest you stop being a tender little girl and grow a pair.

because all you are telling me is that you are an ideologue,and I do not engage with ideologies.

I ridicule them.

you are convinced of your own righteousness.
just like the sanctimonious ultra-lefties who are so impressed with their own awesomeness that they will sit in a circle smelling their own farts and calling it roses.

I got no time,nor inclination to spar with someone who is so go***mn in love with his "flavor" of politics.

you wanna discuss and talk?
I am down for that brother.

you wanna preach and whine and cry because I offended your tender sensibilities and challenged your insultingly small worldview?

go f**k yourself you weak ass pansy.

Manichaeism, of which St. Augustine did a stint as a member en route to finally seeing tha light of Christianity, believed farts "released divine light from the body.”
So don't knock it till you've snorted it.

- Somebody shoot me.

Oh, and do not tell what's-his-face that China is second only to the USA in terms of economic power. There are no cults that I know of that see divine inspiration in bubbles bursted.

Oh, btw, did you know kiwihouse made a meme last night about how mean you were about fisting his ma with no lube? Such matters should remain private.

It was flagged and removed from featured memes.

You've been identified by them as part of the GODda, or rather, the memer named Modda's collective.
Don't take as too much an insult, basically anyone who dislikes Trump is me because as we all know, Dear Leader is loved by everyone.

Sorry about the delay, family stuff happening and I've been out of it and falling behind because flame wars when I get on here are such a priority in my illustrious life.

regurgitating rightwing talking points is not a refutation.
2 ups, 6y
are you stupid?
"regurgitating rightwing talking points is not a refutation"

is NOT a deflection,it is an observation of your failure to clearly make your point that socialism doesn't work.

ok,i guess I need to take more time out of my day to address your flaccid point.

1.have their been failures utilizing a socialist system=yes.

but that is where your little rigid ideology stops,that incurious inability to look at the bigger picture.

so on the one hand the countires you list did have a socialist economic system,but then conveniently ignores the other,myroad of reasons why they failed.

and another convenience you ignored were the social democracries,who do have socialist elements are probably the most successful to date.

but mentioning THOSE countries would not fit into your rigid ideology.

can't have anything that may conflict with your precious narrative now,can we?

so on this point?
you have failed,and failed epically.

now,on to your next "contention" which was so ridiculously ignorant I was trying to be nice.

but since this is soooo important to you.
let us address socialism in America.

let me give you an example.

just one.

you shop at Walmart?
most people do.

let me lay out a common deal most walmarts get from local,state and federal governments.
1.all access roads,streetlights,sidewalks and even the parking lot are paid for the local government,to the tune of millions of dollars.

payee:tax payer

2.deferred building costs in scroll,funded by the tax holiday (usually a ten year length) in the form of sales taxes.which means that the local government gives Walmart a tax holiday,and Walmart gets to keep all sales taxes (from 5%-9%),who then defer those taxes to pay for the structure,which can be 100's of millions.

*this means the taxpayers actually pays for the very building they are shopping in.

3.federal income tax (not SS) can be part of the holiday (and often is in the case of Walmart).so every employee that pays their state and federal taxes thinks those taxes are going to the state and the federal government,but in reality is being pocketed by Walmart and goes to pay executive bonuses.

*so the Walmart employees paying their executives bonuses.(amazon was also notorious using this tactic).

and this is only one company.

does this sound like capitalism?
of course not.
do you know what it is most like?
communism.

now...
kindly,and politely..
f**k off.

Yet another deflection from you. I'm guessing you're probably just a kid. :/

1: Those countries failed because socialism doesn't work.

2: The "socialist" countries you're talking about are actually still market based countries. Take this example from the PM of Denmark. https://www.thelocal.dk/20151101/danish-pm-in-us-denmark-is-not-socialist

3: The final things you listed off all predate Communism/Socialism/Marxism in the US, so it's far from fair to compare Communism/Socialism/Marxism. Btw Walmart does not equal a whole government.
