Nah... you wouldn’t hit it.
Now multiply that times a hundred thousand and you have our educational system.
Proof “that all that glitters is not gold.” Odd that a Marxist would wear a cross, one confused individual.
Surely you were not referring to this lady Jedediah Bila?
If SHE IS the one who is a Marxist.
In book of James ‘a double minded man can receive nothing from the Lord’.
If she is prove it.
Very well said. I was trying to articulate that, but my brain’s not in gear this week.
Leftists oppose imposing standards of all kinds (except, ironically enough, upon conservatives), because they don’t want to be held to any. Fear of failure, perhaps? This armchair psycho-analysation can work two ways, can it not?
They word of the day is “hypocrite.” It is synonymous with “Democrat.”
This is exactly what I despise the most about Democrats. They are all preachy about freedom of speech and equality and then turn into a rabid dog when someone says something or does something that they disagree with.
It’s easy to be a Marxist when someone else is supporting you.
Liberals love Diversity EXCEPT for Diversity of Thought.
Looks like the south end of a mule heading north.
liberals/socialist/communist/Marxist etc. entire world view is founded on them be 100% right and everyone else being 100% wrong. Any flaw in that equation destroys their entire self worth.
Mentally it destroys them personally.
A conservative strives to be better and can and does accept constructive change. (contrary to the NYC dominated dinosaur media)
I did not post the picture or make that comment on the picture, so go find that poster...I said “IF” in response to the picture. If you want an argument Sharpton, go find someone else.
The problem is that “Marxists” are idealists and don’t “live in the real world.”
Communism or government of any kind with centralized, authoritarian, totalitarian power will eventually fail simply because of human nature and the fact that humans are easily corruptible and inherently flawed.
The founding fathers of this country realized this fact and designed our government such that no individual or group of individuals would posses all of the power. They were brilliant. It also forces civility on our leaders because it forces them to work with people to whom they may disagree with.
All the Commies I have met shared the same trait: Someone else was supporting them. They were either trust fund kids or had a enabling parent or on the government dole.
There was always a disconnect with them between work and money. My wife worked with a bunch in a cotton mill. They never grasped the concept of “show up for work on time and stay on the job”. They were always disappearing or missing work.
Ironically they wanted to “organize the oppressed workers” but that idea ran into trouble with the union.
Exactly and then they can’t find a job and become disgruntled professional protesters.
It is too bad that they may never learn the very important life’s lesson that if you don’t work hard, you’ll end up being a failure.
Probably because they are sheltered in some way — as you mention, trust fund, enabling parent, government dole. These people and programs are doing them a huge disservice. Clearly, they are not helping but hurting.
This the classic problem with socialism and communism — people never push themselves to be better because of “why bother, there is no reward” and then society ends up sinking to the lowest common denominator.
