Yeah, I don’t see how it’s an outlandishly Stalinist claim to look at the numbers and the campaigns and the maps and come to the conclusion that the USSR was pretty essential to stopping the Nazis.

And lose our two best Senators?

Now they glom onto Biden, who is literally, unquestionably worse than Hillary ever was.

Unless that person in the younger cohort is in need of a shoulder rub.

Hell yes!

As opposed to the Biden campaign motto:

Trump broke so many people’s brains. So many Democrats can’t hear anything negative about a Democrat or the party because they see it as helping Trump somehow.

Someone on here lost it when I pointed this out. They swore up and down Joe Biden isn’t anti-union.

STRIKES WORK

Meanwhile Joe Biden works with a union busting lawyer to raise money.

Hell yeah. For all the problems with Sanders and the rest of the faux-/lite-socialist Dems, if you’re going to claim to fight on behalf of workers then the least you can do is actually, you know, directly support them in their struggles. 

I’m not moving any goalposts. Socialism isn’t simply “the government says you will make X number of phones,” that’s a command economy, which is one of the many, many approaches to socialist economic structure (from the NEP on!) utilized by various countries over the years. Socialism is, however, based on proletarian…

There are plenty of reasonable criticisms to make of the PRC, Deng Xiaoping Thought (and the ultraleftist moves Mao made that set the stage for Deng’s right deviations), and the contradictions it holds, but the basic elements of a socialist system are still there, and China at least seems to have a better track record…

You’re right, it’s not communist, it’s socialist. They’ve never claimed to be communist, nor have any other nations. Liberals on the left and right seem to have a tough time understanding that, though. 

Lol and the two countries that have pulled more people out of poverty faster than any others in the history of the world are...the USSR and the PRC. 

When is this goddamned propaganda organ of the corporate state going to die?

1. Let’s get an opinion from the original native American residents and slaves about your take.

That they are left out of all of these bullshit “righ to work” laws should be proof enough of that, but the rubes kept getting scammed.

Not a particularly intellectually honest. If you redefine terms to suit your arguments it’s very easy to “win” like that. That’s not how the terms are actually used, in popular or academic literature.

Anyone see Elizabeth Warren chicken out of doing a Fox News town hall? Bernie crushed and no Democrat has the courage or skill to equal him. Bernie is the strongest candidate for Democrats. The rest of the field is nothing but crooks, cowards, and frauds.
