It isn't your grandfather's LEFT anymore

[RhodyPatriot]

My grandfather???

Shit, it ain't even my former Left from just a few years back.

During his Presidency, Obama once actually said he didn't want to see immigrants with Mexican flags at American soccer games, because they should cheer their new homeland.

Chuck Schumer said we should build a wall, and he wasn't talking about protecting his favorite Delicatessen.

As VP, China Joe said he was opposed to Gay Marriage - now he thinks teachers should be able to trans your kids without your knowledge.

If any of them said that now, they'd be lynched by Antifa.

Meanwhile, the MAGA Right has - to a degree - adopted some of the Left's former policies. Such as tariffs, a secure border to ensure fair wages for working class Americans, and being judged by the content of your character; not the color of your skin.

And the Neocon warmongers all support the Democrats now.

And the Leftist moonbats don't even see it.

It's uncanny I tell ya.

Don't need to go back to anyone's grandfather....This isn't the left of Bill Clinton.

No it isn't. But Bill Clinton IS a grandfather.

That might be the most stupid thing you've ever said...And that's not for lack stupidity from which to pick.

They.....just.....don't....get....it.

Hilariously delirious, must be a petty bourgeois

Marxist communism requires a stage of totalitarian government with unlimited power to accomplish confiscation of all private property and wealth, abolishing religion, as well as control of the message, speech, expressed opinions of the people. Once that is accomplished and the people no longer have individual ambitions, that totalitarian government can then be abolished and the people will live in complete peace with each receiving according to his needs from each according to his ability.

Not only does it totally ignore human nature, but no government once having seized that kind of power has ever willingly given it up.

There is supposed to be capitalism, then socialism then communism.

Yawn, what a whiney sniveling lying excuse for a post.

Good grief.

What a whiney snively lying response to a post that you didn't have to read and certainly didn't have to respond to. Good grief.

Now if your intent is to start a food fight or derail the thread, nice try, but please just move on. There may be others with the education and intelligence to actually understand and discuss a topic that is of interest to many.

My grandfather was born in 1897.

 

[Moonglow]

I enjoy being a girl. And I was born that way.

Then you have no idea what it is to be a man.

 

[Concerned American]

And most of them just can't see it.

Most of them couldn't define it.

 

[Moonglow]

That was 50 years ago. The left is no longer anti war. Why is that?

The so called left was never anti-war. Just like people claiming Trump was antiwar.

You say the dumbest shit while patting yourself on the back and I find it hilarious.

Transphobic.

Off to the woke gulag.

 

[Foxfyre]

They're getting closer to communism every year. And most of them just can't see it.
They'll turn this country into Venezuela north if left unchecked.

It's what I think they want. They honestly believe the salvation of the place called America, humankind, the fate of the world rests with large, powerful, authoritarian government will authority to dictate how we must all think, believe, express, think, live,

My question is though, how did they get that way? Why did they get that way?

I personally think that our education system no longer promotes intellectual honesty and it strongly suppresses critical thinking as well as appreciation for our Constitution and the principles/values embodied in the Founding of America. Also the curriculum is twisted to remove or suppress any component of our history and/or historical figures that do not support their agenda.

No thanks.

Wow. You're original too. FFS.

Sure thing. I don't want to get between you and spreading your anti American lies.

Then parents should instil those abilities but every human makes a choice of what they choose to do.

 

[RhodyPatriot]

No thanks.

You don't get a choice in the matter, bigot.

And your posts are all now being erased from history.

By order of the New and Improved Disinformation Governance Board.

All hail Equity and Inclusion!~

Sorry but I have studied and taught Marxism. There may or may not be capitalism but there is first socialism, then totalitarianism, then communism. I suggest you read up on it. It is challenging but really interesting.

I find political theory a drudgery to read and no human has duplicated the theories into actual working polis.
