This is Jesse Myerson.
He loves Communism.
A lot.

Mantra of typical liberals - Communism has not worked in the past because we were not in charge of it...
Everyone knows that once you give the people on the top of the power structure a communist country they rule it like saints and not tyrants......

He looks pretty gay to me. And, as we all know, they do SOOO well during Communist regimes.
Saw the piece on FR a few days ago. The author apparently feels that setting up ridiculous straw men and then knocking them down constitutes some sort of political discourse. It really isn’t worth much more time than it takes just to note that.
Okay. I admit I was wrong. It’s way worse than we ever thought and the “lyin’ king” is bringing us along nicely.
He is free to export himself to cuba any time he wishes...
We are not going to detain him like the soviets detained people trying to flee that socialist state in the 20th century....
Jesse Myserson is an imbecile that makes other imbeciles look highly intelligent
The idiots who love Communism, I give them this challenge..go live in Venezuela or North Korea for a month, heck, I’ll do better than that, live in any of those two countries for a WEEK, and I bet you 100 bucks they will be begging, pleading to come back to the US and kiss the ground
[ He looks pretty gay to me. And, as we all know, they do SOOO well during Communist regimes. ]
The only thing that gives me some solace if we fail to save this country is the fact that his kind, and I mean the wackjob libs will be the first against the wall AFTER any Communist revolution is successful.
I may die, but it will be 3rd or 4th wave....
All kidding aside... yes, they do believe that.
Liberals’ belief system centers around the assumption that people are basically good and respond to their environment with corresponding choices and behaviors. In other words, bad choices and evil behaviors are only a result of a bad environment, and if that environment were good, they’d act good. Of course, that good environment would have to be created, and of course, only those with this belief system would want to created such an environment. Those people would have to be given the power to do so.
The reason they are baffled, or in denial, when it is shown that this fails every time, is that it would require they give up on their assumption of human nature. And they don’t want to do that because that would logically and inevitably lead to “Mere Christianity” as the only solution to the human condition.

He reminds me of the Anarchist Communists that are so in love with Communism they failt o realize that Communism requires absolute government which is the diametric opposite of Anarchy.
Which means these screwballs are dangerous because they have SEVERE BI-Polar disorder.
These nut bars are usually the type that have been involed in MOST of the political asassinations of the 20th century...
This is a Scary Evil Disturbed man...
I have critized the “Noble Savage Myth” many times here, glad to see you know if it’s evil as well.
The institutions of capitalism are:
1) free market price system
2) financial self interest and the profit motive
3) freedom of economic competition
4) freedom of economic inequality
5) saving and capital accumulation
6) money and exchange.
These institutions are necessary for a modern division of labor society, which is necessary for increasing total productive ability and rising productivity of labor. Both of these are necessary for rising real wage rates and rising standard of living for the average worker.
Capital accumulation is necessary for economic progress which is necessary for increasing prosperity. Communism destroys these institutions which makes rising standard of living and increased prosperity impossible, no matter who does it or which country does it.
Well, traitors are always the first to go, aren’t they? If they could turn against their own country surely they could turn against the new socialist order! Socialism always breeds paranoia among those who assume power.
That sideways glare & bow tie scream “I’m a rebel against the conventional!!!”
Anyway..... all together now, children, one, two, three:
“TRUE COMMUNISM HASN’T BEEN TRIED YET!!!!!”
He writes like a 7th grader but gets published in Rolling Stone. He’s the very definition of a “young skull full of mush.”
I grew up reading David Horowitz and Ron Radosh - great writers and historians of Communism. I can’t deal with stupid kiddie essays that appear to be written in crayon.
Have you read Sowell’s “Conflict of Visions”?
Brilliant work.
And what’s funny was, I read it once pre-”new creation” and got it, but it made a LOT more sense reading it post-”new creation”.
