What explains "democratic Socialists"?

[Mac1958]

The funniest part of this is the fact that the term "socialism" doesn't scare anyone any more.

That's the goal, sure. But, despite the best efforts of socialists to obfuscate, the term does a have a meaning, and socialist have very real policy aims. Socialism isn't a myth.

But the term doesn't mean anything. The right wingers only know to use Venezuela as an example, and that's not the Left is after.

So the whole approach is flawed and hopeless.

[Edgetho]

You may be the only one who considers Venezuela to be a democracy.

Maduro does, too

Everybody else? Not so much.

But Chavez ran as a democratic socialist.

Don't let facts get in the way of your stupidity, however.

So this whole hyperbolic, binary, boogeyman farce is nothing more than partisan masturbation.

Really? Run as a socialist and let us know how you make out.

idiot

What you should be doing is presenting an intelligent, thoughtful, reasonable, cogent argument for capitalism.

But you just don't have the capacity, because talk radio hasn't given it to you.

So you're reduced to screaming SOCIALISM and IDIOT.

The Left should be thanking people like you. You may be their best asset.

Nothing to see here. Move along. Ignore the socialists behind the curtain....

Behind the curtain, in Canada, Germany, Australia. Not Venezuela.

What explains "democratic Socialists"?

Are they gullible? Ignorant? How were they deluded into believing that THEY will be the Billionaire Socialist dictator?

Socialist Paradise Venezuela: 2,000,000% inflation, no food, no running water, people eat their pets and sell their kids, the political leaders are BILLIONAIRES!

"You bet you life it will work this time!"

It's when you are a socialist, but too embarrassed to admit it. Throw some candy on top the bullshit and it will smell a lot better.

No. Your thinking is flawed and hopeless.

Venezuela is the only Country on earth to have freely elected a truly democratic socialist government.

To deny that is to try to change reality.

Vote for it and we will all be short 7 days each month, doing what ever we can to get by on each program. There is never enough money to redistribute for a full month, no matter how much you take in taxes.
Health care is rationed also.
Think hard about it before we do it.
The more people that are in the gov. run programs the less and less you get each month, till there is nothing.
You will lose all of your natural amendment rights if we do.
It's about the 1% of politicians ruling everyone else.
It's about power and wealth for them, but not for us.

“It’s not just an anvil, I think it is a mountain and the nexus of everything. This “Clinton Global Initiative” (CGI) is worldwide, and it’s been out there for a couple of decades. It has now, of course, intertwined former Directors of the CIA and FBI. George Soros is a part of it. It’s connected to all kinds of global financial institutions…These people have been backing her, protecting her…James Comey protected Hillary Clinton from prosecution of multiple espionage laws…They have to be connected to this because they are completely witting of the whole thing.

[The global charity fraud is] at least a $100 billion and it connects into a whole lot of things… All these people protecting and defending Hillary Clinton and knowing about her criminal syndicate, this goes into the so-called “Deep State” of our government, and it is connected, involved and intertwined in the global criminal crime syndicate called the Clinton Foundation. This is probably going to be the biggest scandal in U.S. history–once it’s busted. I think they are quietly working on it now, and I think they have been for the last year. It is so huge the arrests and indictments could cause a Constitutional crisis with some people being removed. Maybe that’s why they are moving slowly. It all comes back down to the Clinton Foundation and the criminal syndicate.”
“Yes, I am absolutely convinced of it. George Soros gave $30 million to Obama’s campaign. Then he gave $27.1 million to Hillary Clinton’s campaign. Both Obama and Clinton are tied directly into George Soros. Obama was put into office with millions of dollars that came out of nowhere. Yes, he’s part of this cabal. Yes, he’s part of this global syndicate, and in my opinion, the subversion of our government.

Democratic Socialists are thinking about Canada, Germany and Australia.

Not Venezuela.

This has only been pointed out about fifteen million times. And it still doesn't sink in for some. Maybe after sixteen million.
.

Yup most of Europe is democratic socialist.

With the exceptions of Hungary, Poland, Slovakia, the Czech Republic and Bulgaria they all are over run with death cult members they let into their countries.

And loads of other countries want to ban Muslims from coming into their countries as well.

Dear CrusaderFrank
Some of it is running on karmic backlash,
because the Christians and rightwing had been pushing
those dominant beliefs into govt, then this is their turn.

In the end, we are heading toward recognizing political
beliefs as equally optional and not to be established by Govt
at the expense of other people's beliefs.

The pushing is to force as much as possible that people
can agree to or tolerate being embedded in Govt.
Whatever does not withstand the push to incorporate into Govt,
that will cause lobbying to defund and remove from Govt
on the basis of BIAS by beliefs and DISCRIMINATION by creed.

For example,
1. LGBT are pushing to REMOVE biases and bans AGAINST their beliefs from Govt and public policy.
(but if they push too far and incorporate/establish their beliefs, the Christians and others who do
not support those beliefs push back and demand equal protection from discrimination and penalties)
2. The abortion laws and Planned Parenthood funding is also in process of either being
pushed TOO FAR into govt or DEFUNDED where taxpayers have a choice NOT to be FORCED to
fund abortion related services against their beliefs.
3. How much "health care" will REMAIN through federal govt and how much will be
reformed and redirected back to private choice of people and states
4. Pushing for and against the "Wall" and/or policies on Sanctuary Cities and Amnesty/Dreamer programs
5. Pushing for or against "climate change legislation"

These are battles over political BELIEFS.

Until people figure it out to negotiate solutions, they keep using
the same "majority rule" system of trying to outvote and outnumber the other side.
When both sides equally have rights to their beliefs
without infringement by Govt. Until we recognize this,
the karmic backlash is going the other direction,
until the situation reaches a deadlock equilibrium
and we agree to respect and address each other as equals.

Cruz and Cortez might figure out that collaboration on solution
is better and doesn't require either side changing their beliefs.

We'll see if other leaders follow and figure out better approaches
more effective in crafting sensible legislation that doesn't
infringe on one side's beliefs or the other. That's the smarter way to work

What you should be doing is presenting an intelligent, thoughtful, reasonable, cogent argument for capitalism.

But you just don't have the capacity, because talk radio hasn't given it to you.

So you're reduced to screaming SOCIALISM and IDIOT.

The Left should be thanking people like you. You may be their best asset.
.

Capitalism is the only economic system that can support a Free People. Period.

How complicated is that?

ALL of your 'free' Countries are Capitalist in nature.

ALL of your Prison Countries are socialist in nature.

Did I lose you yet??

Now, try to figure out which system you would prefer.

The Countries you think are socialist, Germany Sweden, etc are MORE Capitalist than the USA is. FACT.

They have more welfare, more benefits to their people.

You know what else they have? Sensible politicians. They don't have to put up with scum of the Earth dimocrap FILTH.

You don't see it because you're part of the problem.

If we had a sensible Democrat Party, we could get things done. Instead we have a party that is filled with the scum of the Earth. Liars, thieves, panderers, Union thugs, criminals. IOW -- FILTH.

the dimocrap party is NOT a political party. It is a Criminal Organization.

Republicans aren't much better. But they are by a small margin. Not by much.

Trump is a whole new way. We've re-invented the Republican Party

As long as we have political party like the scumbags in the dimocrap party, we will never be able to give our people what Europeans and Japan have managed t give theirs.

If we could just get dimocraps to reorganize and get rid of the criminal element.

But that ain't gonna happen.

They have a death grip on America with the help of their truly evil friends in the media, and they ain't gonna let go until somebody makes them.

Will you help us make them?

Didn't think so.

We reorganized our party. Will you?
