COMMUNISM NEVER HAS AND NEVER WILL NEVER WORK.

Do you mean apart from the 70 years it spent as a world superpower, during which it invented satellites and put the first man into space?

1 point

Ahh, now you're making juvenile excuses why communism could never work.

Juvenile? Lol! I respect the fact that your intelligence is fairly low but even you should be able to grasp the idea that powerful people don't just surrender their power willingly.

1 point

To cut away all the dead-wood;- COMMUNISM NEVER HAS AND NEVER WILL NEVER WORK.

That's nice. Meanwhile, nine million people literally starve to death EVERY SINGLE YEAR IN CAPITALIST ECONOMIES.

One has to fight fire with fire

No, one fights fire with water, which is why I don't rise to your rather childish baiting.

I'm a warrior..

You're a keyboard warrior.

I fought for this country once before

Not unless you fought in WW2 you didn't, because that was the last war Americans fought for America.

1 point

All guns could be confined to the US, and there's no reason why they shouldn't have all the bombs too if they're kept in their own country with the guns.

I'm perfectly fine with the idea of letting the Americans kill each other. It's them killing everyone else that I have an issue with.

And of course without colonialism by many capitalist regimes throughout history, and including US colonialism in the ME, there wouldn't have been hundreds of millions dead.

The apologists for this cruel and barbarous system follow the tried and trusted notion of: "When we do it it's different".

Growth is an extremist ideal of capitalism and is secondary to the good of the country's people. Growth in a capitalist system leaves the good of the people behind, as has become the example in the United States.

Yes, growth is a term used by the rich to describe how much richer they are getting. It is very difficult to grow when you haven't got squat in the first place.

with communism instead of democracy

There is nothing mutually exclusive about these two ideas. By implying such, you imply that no population would ever go to a voting booth and vote communist. The democratic unification of Vietnam under a communist government proves that notion is false.

This is great. So first you wrote:-

your hallmark obscenities.

Then you wrote:-

you're letting your madness and resentment show through on every post

And then you wrote:-

you're the bastard son of a diseased whore

Lol!!! You see now why it's impossible to take anything you write seriously? It's because you project all of your own faults and failures onto other people. You're an unfathomably disingenuous individual who misrepresents everything and anything to better fit in with your own raging far right political bias.

And of course this isn't true either:-

One of the methods Stalin employed to try make communism work was to murder millions of Russian citizens

The murders committed by Stalin had nothing to do with making communism work and everything to do with him being a tyrannical despot who wanted to create his own dictatorship. He killed all of his political rivals (who were also communists). Trotsky, for example, a fervent communist, had an ice pick buried in his head. Furthermore, most of the Russians who died under the Stalin regime died as a result of famine, not execution. You simply misrepresent and rewrite history with every possible opportunity you are given. It's horrifying to bear witness to.

The same could be said for any anti mask anti vax person who is still standing.

Try again dopey. The stats show that vaccines help stop you dying from the diseases they protect against, but they also show that owning a gun increases your risk of dying by gunshot. See:-

The risk of dying from a suicide in the home was greater for males in homes with guns than for males without guns in the home

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15522849/

Overall, Branas's study found that people who carried guns were 4.5 times as likely to be shot and 4.2 times as likely to get killed compared with unarmed citizens.

Go figure. Your claims are the complete opposite of the truth.

the subservient populations

And of course the hilarious thing about that phrasing is that populations aren't supposed to be subservient under communism. Communism isn't a hierarchy where wealth and power are horded by those at the top of the pyramid. That's capitalism. You're literally using conditions created under capitalism to criticise the proposed solution to those conditions, which is just frankly insane.

1 point

You speaking about yourself in third person while denying you created him in a lab funded by you is absurd.

Militantly hating Obama for being black and then calling someone else Hitler is the only absurd thing I can see.

Literally the only difference between you pro-Trump lunatics and the Nazis is that you don't like the word Nazi.

Russian citizens killed by Stalin between 1958 and 1962

The Russian revolution happened in 1917 you total waste of oxygen.

You're honestly just such a laughably dishonest terrorist bigot. You exaggerate everything the left does wrong and ignore everything the right does wrong. You've sold your soul for a few rupees and it's pitiful. Perfectly prepared to pretend the Russian revolution began with Stalin, but not so prepared to acknowledge that capitalism is responsible for the slave trade.

You haven't the remotest idea which political party I support

Lol. That's just so hilariously funny. You tend to drop subtle hints like hating black people and blaming poor people for poverty.

A virus provably created in a lab funded by Fauci and Obama.

You were probably created in a lab funded by Hitler.

So you give up your guns, and I'll keep mine.

That doesn't sound fair to me. How about we just make guns illegal and then whoever refuses to give them up goes to jail? How about that, you insanely stupid clutz?

1 point

And lack of guns gets you killed

That is is an absurdly stupid claim which can be automatically rejected by taking a look at the lives of myself and millions of others.

Yes, the graveyards and mass burial grounds in China, Russia, Cambodia, North Korea and other communist regimes all bear witness just how well communism works.

Capitalism has produced far more bodies than communism ever has. If people like you weren't so busy twisting history to better fit your political views you'd know that already. Even from the examples you have given I can tell you that a significant proportion of the deaths in Cambodia were caused by the United States, which carpet bombed the area shortly after the Vietnam war. Indeed, if I were to create my own list of capitalist "mass burial grounds", the Vietnam war would be on it, since all that country wanted was a peaceful, democratic transition to communism, and it was denied that by the American government.

Communism is a much fairer system but it cannot work because all of the wealth and power in the world is invested in capitalism.

If we temporarily leave the human carnage to the one side and dispassionately observe the difference between the repressive regime of the old communist East Germany which stifled industrious entrepreneurship, and the capitalist democratic system of government in West Germany in which free enterprise and self-reliance was encouraged.

The regime in East Germany was indeed oppressive, but your belief that capitalism has produced anything better is entirely contrary to the known facts. For example:-

Well, science should always be open to updating and ready to accept new ideas for consideration.

Lol. So why do you support the party which thinks the devil invented homosexuality and wants the Bible crammed down everybody's throats by the time they hit middle school?

It's impossible to take anything you say seriously.

1 point

most hard working taxpayers who keep the wheels of industry and domestic maintenance running smoothly are overwhelmingly from the Republican political spectrum

Oh shut your mouth you idiot. The Republican Party is funded by tax dodgers.

This could be prevented by gun training for teachers to prepare them

No, accidents cannot be prevented by gun training. Just where the hell are they sending you people to school? Because you're all frighteningly stupid.
