You are not getting it. Try a little harder.

Smile or they will come for you. Facial recognition is the order of that day.

Okay.

THESE Are the Most Telling Failures of Socialism. Everyone knows Marxism is a failure.

However, we can't overlook some of Capitalisms abuses either.

You're responsible for your Marx fantasy. The left isn't for Marx or his failed ideas.

The PROGRESSIVE left is. And the progressive bus is driving the Dem bus over a cliff into a volcano.

Progressives have ALWAYS been arrogant, elitist, power whores with NO REAL beliefs of their own. Obtaining and RETAINING power is their primary motive. And the best, fastest lane to power is dividing and polarizing factions in an opportunist way. Smart vs dumb, rich vs poor, dark skin vs light skin, male vs female. And they use any power they've gained to PROGRAM the electorate into compliance. Like using the Covid plague as an OPPORTUNITY to teach compliance.

What it leads to is Shanghai today. With ChiCom drones flying over people SCREAMING in pain and anguish from their apartments, blaring the govt message "Control your desire for Freedom"..

While they are starving and jumping from their locked-down apartments.

Shanghai Residents Told to 'Control Your Thirst for Freedom' Amid Lockdown

City officials have sent drones to tell residents not to protest the city's COVID-19 lockdown.

Yup but too many classical democrats don't pay attention to that reality thus follow them over the cliff because it has a D next to their name.

Two of my brothers ignore the abundant evidence that leftists are not the same as classical democrats they still think they are ..... Kennedy democrats!

And Trump isn't an Eisenhower Republican.

And Trump isn't an Eisenhower Republican.

More like a Reagan Republican with better economic and administration skills.

But then -- why fuss. Brandon is in a class by himself. Can't compare to ANY past president.

I hope you know the difference between a Classic Democrat and a Leftist/progressive?

At first, Marx was about economics. Rich people like Soros wouldn´t exist in his system.
Second, race was not an issue back then in Germany. Poverty was. Poverty was, what drove people to go communist.

Karl Marx was born in 1818 and saw the beginnings of the Industrial Age and the abuses on workers in that era. There were no unions, no worker protections, no safety regulations and thus, Communism appealed to the workers who suffered at the whims of business leaders. In this era, Marx's beliefs are outdated, as we do have numerous worker safety laws, unions, environmental regulations and various worker benefits. In Marx's time there was no "middle-class," only rich corporate heads and poor workers. Ultimately, Marxism is neither woke, nor progressive, only regressive and outdated.

“DRAT THE British!” Karl Marx once said in frustration at his London exile. When the European revolutions of 1848 began to crumble Marx was forced to come to London.

Save for a few short trips abroad and to the seaside, he lived here until his death on 14 March 1883.

But his stay in Britain also helped to make the Marx we know today. “Here Marx found what he was looking for, what he needed,” said the German socialist Wilhelm Liebknecht. “The bricks and mortar for his work Capital, which could only have been written in London.”
