This Is How Stupid Bronto Is
Bronto is in love with a man who admitted owning a copy of Mein Kampf and whose own wife testified that he kept a book of Hitler speeches by his bedside table. A man who is heavily supported by every neo-Nazi, fascist and white supremacist in America.
But if you have a problem with this man or his draconian policies?
Yup, you guessed it. You're a Nazi.
Wait? You're a Marxist? The only people Hitler despised more than Jews? Well, that's inconvenient. Let's just pretend the ideological opposites of Nazis are Nazis and that the far right are the REAL ideological opposites of Nazis. Yes, that will fool people. The Nazis hated Nazis but loved the Marxists.
That, ladies and gentlemen, is how goddamned retarded this idiotic bag of intellectual cancer is.
Wait? You're a Marxist? The only people Hitler despised more than Jews? Well, that's inconvenient.
Hitler was a Socialist and an anticapitalist who considered Marxism a bastardization of Socialism. -------------------->
Our fight is with money. Work alone will help us, not money. We must smash interest slavery. Our fight is with the races that represent money.
Speech at the hall of Zum Deutschen Reich, (December 18, 1919), Thomas Weber, Becoming Hitler: The Making of a Nazi, Basic Books, 2017, p. 138. Police report of DAP meeting, SAM, DPM/6697
The Jews have shown real genius in profiting by politics. This capitalistic people, which was brought into existence by the unscrupulous exploitation of men, has understood how to get the leadership of the Fourth Estate into its own hands; and by acting both on the Right and on the Left it has its apostles in both camps. On the Right the Jew does his best to encourage all the evils there are to such an extent that the man of the people, poor devil, will be exasperated as much as possible— greed of money, unscrupulousness, hard- heartedness, abominable snobbishness. More and more Jews have wormed their way into our upper-class families; and the consequence has been that the ruling class has been alienated from its own people.
As quoted in A History of National Socialism, Konrad Heiden, Methuen & Company, LTD, London: UK, 1934, p. 58. Speech in April, 1922
Hitler's Nationalistic Socialism was also a bastardization of socialism, as in Democratic Socialism and Communistic Socialism. Both the nationalistic and communistic "bastardizations" require a one party, totalitarian leader. Which shows socialism can be adapted to different political genres with ease. It can also be adapted to a multi-party democratic system which allows capitalism within reason, i.e., when it prevents capitalism from controlling the government with money! It's a great economic system, but only when used by other than totalitarian governments. THEN it can ACTUALLY be a part of "The Peoples Government". Democracy.
as in Democratic Socialism and Communistic Socialism
Socialism isn't Democratic by definition.
While socialism’s goals may be lofty, its means are inherently at odds with democracy. In the end, “democratic socialism” makes no more sense than “voluntary slavery.”
Tocqueville said it well:
Democracy and socialism have nothing in common but one word: equality. But notice the difference: while democracy seeks equality in liberty, socialism seeks equality in restraint and servitude.
Sorry. I just can't picture Bernie or AOC as "slave drivers", I CAN, however, picture the Retrumplican Nationalist Party as THAT, and worse.
Democracy, with the will of the people, can weave parts of ANY political or economic entity into a democratic government AS WE HAVE DONE FOR YEARS. We use those parts of socialism we WISH to, we can use a few more. Capitalism is great, as long as it doesn't get out of control … like NOW! Like it has in Russia. Capitalism is missing a word when it does get out of control. THAT word is EQUALITY!
You make socialism sound like Islam, as far as restraint and servitude go. Our Democratic Constitution protects U.S. from that, while allowing the Islamic religion within the country.(As long as they DON'T get carried away with their restraint and servitude). As long as WE, the people, control our democracy, we can pick and choose whatever we like from ANY political or economic entity. If we are taken over by the RNP, forget it! You will see "restraint and servitude" like never before, in THIS country!

Retrumplicans aren't pouring in Southern brown cheap labor for the rich to pay crumbs to. Democrats are bringing them slaves, just like they used to do. Someone has to pick the fields. The Democrat way. Call us racists if we don't allow you to smuggle in fieldhands.

Socialism is the government running all of the businesses in the country. It has nothing to do with public service or healthcare.
Socialism is the government running all of the businesses in the country.
No, socialism is not the government running all of the businesses you stupid little neo-Nazi retard. As I have personally explained to you on at least a dozen different occasions this is called state capitalism. Socialism is when the means of production are taken by the working class out of the hands of the elite and powerful, which is why it frightens you to death and why you spend at least 90 percent of your time telling lies about it on the internet.
You must be REALLY young, Savage. You obviously don't remember when Dubya and Asante Foxx, the President of Mexico, were bringing in the record numbers of … what did you call them … slaves? Those make up the large numbers of Hispanics that "overstayed" or are Green Card holders and have produced the "DAKAS" of today. It's the capitalistic "big farmers" who are paying the wages! You won't find many Retrumplicans going after them to pay minimum wage! They have to pick the fields the conservative way!
I won't call Dubya racist for bringing in thousands more field hands than are coming in today!
Socialism, under a democratic constitution, can be anything a democratic country WANTS it to be. We have been using parts of it for years, we (many of us), just want to use a bit MORE, but NOT let it get out of control, like capitalism has here …. and in Russia!
a political and economic theory of social organization which advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the government.
synonyms: leftism, Fabianism, syndicalism, consumer socialism, utopian socialism, welfarism; More
policy or practice based on the political and economic theory of socialism.

(in Marxist theory) a transitional social state between the overthrow of capitalism and the realization of Communism.
There is no government in a socialist society. If you are going to make comments about socialism then actually learn what it is first.
"Withering away of the state" is a Marxist concept coined by Friedrich Engels referring to the idea that with realization of the ideals of socialism the social institution of a state will eventually become obsolete and disappear as the society will be able to govern itself without the state and its coercive enforcement of the law.
You make socialism sound like Islam, as far as restraint and servitude go.
If the shoe fits.
Our Democratic Constitution protects U.S. from that, while allowing the Islamic religion within the country.(As long as they DON'T get carried away with their restraint and servitude).
Not bringing them in at all ends the problem in one easy step. Libs don't accept easy, logical solutions. They prefer creating a shitstorm and then acting outraged and demanding things be fixed after the infrastructure is damaged and the situation is unsermountable and out of control.
As long as WE, the people, control our democracy, we can pick and choose whatever we like from ANY political or economic entity.
The Democrats in power aren't picking and choosing this or that. They are preaching Communist Marxism.
If we are taken over by the RNP, forget it! You will see "restraint and servitude" like never before, in THIS country!
Trump took the reigns. We got richer, joblessness went down, the DOW is through the roof, and the Middle East just suddenly stopped being a warzone of chaos from hell.
Most winning teams have a "star" or two, the rest support those stars by working as a team. But where do you get this "half"? When you have decent employment numbers, the vast majority of the country is working, supporting themselves. The minimum wage increases gave us a pretty good uptick in the wage department, so, MOST people are working and supporting themselves. As a "TEAM", it's better to give those not-so-lucky AMERICANS a helping hand … because allowing poverty is much more expensive than "fixing it"! AND, allowing it is so un-American!
I don't mind paying my taxes. I just want my moneys worth out of them. Defending-protecting Americans and America, is what they are for. We did that when America was great. America wont BE great if we have HALF in poverty! YEP! We HAVE to work to NOT become an impoverished nation. THAT means helping each other! However many need it! A "Christian" should know that … even I know that!
Literally everything you ever say is false. At least you've revealed your latest bunch of puppet accounts for me to autoban, you pitiful far right retard.
How many times do you need to be told that you are wrong before the information actually penetrates that stupid, small little far right mind?
According to Marxist theory, the government is an institution of the capitalist state, so the LAST thing Marxists want is more government control. Does that compute, you autistic neo-Nazi retard?
People can either listen to a Marxist like me about what Marxism is, or they can listen to a neo-Nazi like you about what Marxism is.
*The term 'democratic socialism' is sometimes used synonymously with 'socialism', but the adjective 'democratic' is sometimes used to distinguish democratic socialists from Marxist–Leninist-inspired socialism which is viewed as being non-democratic in practice.
His own link entitled "democratic socialism"? That link? The link whose title makes absolutely clear that you are completely wrong? Is that the link you are talking about?

Banned for using yet more puppet accounts, and for being a complete fucking liar who is literally stupid enough to be attacking someone else with false allegations about puppet accounts in a debate he keeps getting banned from for using puppet accounts.
Hitler murdered millions of people because they were socialists, including members of his own party. Get out you ridiculously stupid, anti-intellectual cretin. How many accounts of yours do I have to ban exactly before you stop using my debates as a platform to spread malicious lies?
Since you are so fond of quotes, how about you actually stop ignoring all the ones which prove you wrong? For example:-
Far-right politics are politics further on the right of the left-right spectrum than the standard political right, particularly in terms of extreme nationalism,[1][2] nativist ideologies, and authoritarian tendencies.[3]
The term is often used to describe Nazism,[4] neo-Nazism, fascism, neo-fascism and other ideologies or organizations that feature ultranationalist, chauvinist, xenophobic, racist, anti-communist or reactionary views
Socialism is the science of dealing with the common weal. Communism is not Socialism. Marxism is not Socialism. The Marxians have stolen the term and confused its meaning.
Banned for quoting Hitler, who had nothing to do with the theory of socialism. The theory of socialism was invented by Karl Marx, and Hitler was a liar on the far right who tried to win votes on the left by saying things which would appeal to socialists.
Banned for literally repeating the lies of Hitler.
