If socialism is so bad

[Tommy Tainant]

Who knows what anyone actually means by "socialism" at this point.

Socialism is people pulling together to build that barn.

 

[LordBrownTrout]

Why is the right so afraid of it ?
Surely its a good thing that we help people when they stumble ?

Because it sounds good to stupid people, but leads to tyranny and mass murder.

Have you ever heard of "History"?

Socialism Ian a relatively new idea . How do you explain the centuries of tyranny and mass murder prior ?

A 100 million killed ain't good enough for ya Timmy?

Socialism doesn't really help people who stumble it makes them dependent on the government and the only people that helps are those in power.

You’re a bot and should be banned. All your OP threads are troll threads. It would be like me asking why is cancer bad? What’s wrong with fewer people in the world? Troll.

No it isn't. I'm sorry if you think it is. Socialism isn't some grand altruistic and generous charitable function. Socialism is the government ordering people to build that barn which the government will then own and tell the people what they can and cannot put in it. Not obeying the rules of what the government allocates for the barn can mean execution,. That's socialism.

Shallow, dishonest euphemisms sure do fly in politics, don't they?

"Everything my party does is beautiful because we love everyone and want them to be happy and dance in the flowers"

Nope, it's the price of living in the land of the free.

I have a choice to not pay the power company. The consequences? No power.

I have a choice to not pay Government. The consequences loss of liberty.

See the diff?

That is not "land of the free".

It never was, you are free to complain all you want.

That's why we are here.

No it is not..

That is simply voluntary cooperation.

Socialism is involuntary

If socialism is so bad

If socialism is so good, why must it always be be implemented by force?

There seems to be a dearth of understanding of the definition of socialism among the people here.

Socialism : any of various economic and political theories advocating collective or governmental ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods

The traditional "Barn Raising" is an excellent example to discuss the differences between America and socialists.


Tommy picked a good example to make his case.


You perfectly demonstrated why his case was completely wrong, and why his socialism is so dangerous.



Government programs are backed up by force. The more you have the government do, the more force you are bringing to the table.


Sooner or later, a lot of people are going to get hurt.

Yeah, just look at Detroit how well socialism took the richest city in the world(Motor City) and killed it. At one time Charity used to help people who stumble, but when FDR decided to make poverty a way of life, he went all in and people retarded like Tommy here, think it is the best thing since borsch.

 

[Mikeoxenormous]

Surely if it is so bad then people will reject it ?

Like they are rejecting it in France, or Venezuela?

 

[Hutch Starskey]

Great. Not a single Dem has advocated for that, fool.

Not a single one?

That has nothing to do with your definition, dope. No Dem has ever suggested that the govt should own the production of resources.

Why do you ignore your own definition in favor of dopey narratives?

 

[LordBrownTrout]

Quit teasing us tommy, just leave.

Is that definition in the dictionary?

capitalism and charity help people when they stumble. socialism makes them stumble and then stomps on their neck once they are down.

you have no idea what you are asking for.
