The Nazis started with the leftists.

That’s the only way to think about them!
Won’t someone think of the shareholders?

Fun fact: Donald Trump is the only cast member of Home Alone 2: Lost in New York to be impeached twice by the US House of Representatives
I usually catch their tweets but missed that you. You are right.
No they didn’t
Charter schools, by definition, are conservative. Regardless of what they actually teach.
But conservatives told me wait times in healthcare only happen because of socialism. Did they lie to me?
It makes perfect sense. Evangelical Christianity states that you are saved as long as you believe in Jesus. Evil or good, it doesn’t matter.
Kimchi and cheese, name a better combo. You can’t.
Ted Cruz is definitely only one being and not many.
That’s like saying physics only provides a framework for experiment.
Always play offense. Useful tactic, but easily avoided. Bye!
That’s not what I said. Try again.
I think a better way to describe the essence of communism is an end to dominance hierarchies. Authoritarians often use leftist rhetoric to gain power, which is why so many of them have called themselves socialist or communist, while being the exact opposite of the ideals they claim to support.
You are 100% correct, it is us against the oligarchs. That’s also the entire basis of communist theory, btw. Regardless of terms used though, we are on the same side of this fight, and I am glad that we are.
You’re the one welcoming your own oppression.
Your comment is fair, but please allow me to deflect for a moment with a few questions:
The nazis called themselves national socialists, do you believe they were socialists?
The north korean government has called their country a democratic republic, do you believe that?
I’m guessing you answered no to both. If that’s the case, why do you believe the ussr and the ccp when they say they were/are practicing communism?
Additionally, who benefits more than capital if you believe socialism and communism equal authoritarianism?
You are right
