In the words of one Freeper's tagline:

"Liberalism kills. When it’s not starving you, poisoning you, killing you in the womb, letting you get butchered by a tyrant, denying you medical care or yanking your life support, it will come after you with a loaded gun. Liberalism will make sure you die as quickly as possible. Liberals are the people and party of death."

Socialism did not ‘go’ monstrously wrong.

Socialism IS monstrously wrong.

That tagline should have ended with “...for the children”

Of course they do...as long as it’s the “right kind” of people who are killed. You know...those who harbor a belief in God, those that believe in personal freedom, those kind of people. You can kill all you want of them.

"Contrary to what I learned in school, the National Socialists of Germany were not ideologically opposite from the Marxist-Leninist socialists of the Soviet Union.

"Their great difference lay in the fact that one slaughtered millions according to ethnicity and the other slaughtered millions according to "class" — the ambiguous, undefined term at the center of Marxism."

"They were two wings of the same cult of state power, determined to carve society into a better version of itself using bullets and bayonets. It deserves no sentimentalism."

But the NYT tells me NAZI are rightwing conservatives that attend TEA Parties.

I’ve always thought Left wingers follow anti-human ideology. They are pro-environment because they’re anti-human
They fear increase of human population on earth
They have such low opinion of other human beings that they don’t think individuals can take care of themselves and require and overlord

They justify it as being for the greater good but it really comes down to selfeshness.

You must all know half a dozen people at least who are no use in this world, who are more trouble than they are worth. Just put them there and say Sir, or Madam, now will you be kind enough to justify your existence? If you can’t justify your existence, if you’re not pulling your weight in the social boat, if you’re not producing as much as you consume or perhaps a little more, then, clearly, we cannot use the organizations of our society for the purpose of keeping you alive, because your life does not benefit us and it can’t be of very much use to yourself.

-George Bernard Shaw

I hope Walter Duranty is enjoying his place in hell.

Stalin confiscated the crops in Ukraine. Then his secret police raided the homes of the peasants and took all their food. Then a law was passed making it illegal for the peasants to buy food, trade for food, and work for food. They wouldn't let the peasants on the trains to go the cities and try to get food, and many of them died by the railroad tracks. CHILDREN who went to the wheat fields which were guarded by the secret police were shot dead on the spot if they took any amount of wheat. In the winter of 1932 and 1933, 7 MILLION Ukrainians starved to DEATH!

Socialism, what's not to like?

Perhaps Stalin was right. Killing one person is a tragedy. Killing millions is only a statistic.

In fact, Hitler got the inspiration for "The Final Solution" from seeing what Stalin did in the Ukraine.

I know of a lot of people like that. They exist by confiscating the wages of others. A lot of them live in Washington D.C.

Dr. Eric R. Pianka, speaking at the Texas Academy of Science in 2006. Pianka’s speech was ordered to be kept off the record before it began as cameras were turned away and hundreds of students, scientists and professors sat in attendance.

Standing in front of a slide of human skulls, Pianka gleefully advocated airborne ebola as his preferred method of exterminating the necessary 90% of humans, choosing it over AIDS because of its faster kill period.

Pianka then cited “Peak Oil” as another reason to initiate global genocide. “And the fossil fuels are running out,” he said, “so I think we may have to cut back to two billion, which would be about one-third as many people.”

Later, the scientist welcomed the potential devastation of bird flu and spoke glowingly of China’s enforced one child policy, before commenting, “We need to sterilize everybody on the Earth.”

At the end of Pianka’s speech the audience erupted not to a chorus of boos and hisses but to a raucous reception of applause and cheers as audience members clambered to get close to the scientist to ask him follow up questions. Pianka was later presented with a distinguished scientist award by the Academy. Pianka is no crackpot. He has given lectures to prestigious universities worldwide.

Let's hope the "state of the utopian impulse" remains battered.

*I* hope to see the day it expires, permanently...

Mass death of class enemies is the very PURPOSE of a Leninist revolutionary dictatorship.

See tagline.

While the latter part of your statement is no doubt true, the former is demonstrably false. He *is* a crackpot, as evidenced by the body of your post, and a lethally dangerous one at that...

Lets never forget, Barry’s mentor, the guy down the block, and what the plans of the Weather Underground were and are.
