Old Reagan quote —

“A Liberal is someone who has read Karl Marx. A Conservative is someone who has understood Karl Marx.”

Socialism is more of a cult than anything. These kids believe but they do not understand.

Does not bode well for the future of this country.

How, after 16-18 years of indoctrination, can they be made to see the errors of their ways?

No wonder Sanders had a good following.

They also don’t know that most protests are organized by members of either the Revolutionary Communist Party or Communist Party USA. If these two organizations suddenly realized how idiotic they are and went out of business protests in the USA would practically stop.

To believe in Socialism, is to believe that there are a group of people who run things, who will know exactly how to allocate capital and labor, so that everyone will be happy.

Wow, getting worse. They have no idea that opinions should be based on facts. Facts? What are they? I mean...it’s better for everyone..
To hear those kids, getting an education, dressed well, busily parroting spread the wealth around was sickening. Do they realize that they would be giving up things that they take for granted and the party bosses would be the only ones with advantage? No one took the time with them when they were young to train & discipline their minds. That’s what the NEA is all about.

College students would support anything if it were re-tweeted enough times.

This is as concise of an explanation that I have seen. I copied from a post a saw here on FR a few years ago.

Economic definition:

Capitalism: Production and distribution run by private sector.

Socialism: Production, private. Distribution by government.

Communism: Production and distribution run by government.

Fascism: Use of force to impose political will.

I'm not an economist or a polysci major, but it helped me understand more clearly.

An Obama, Pelosi, Schumer, Cummings, Waters, et al. graduate speaking. Truly worthy of viral viewing, ya think? Illustrative and instructive beyond words.

It’s official, the dumbing down of America caused by institutions of higher learning is complete. The Communist Manifesto has been proven. We no longer teach student to think, rather to follow like good little brown shirts.

Emocrats are producing exactly what they need — an ignorant, dumbed down electorate that is easy to manipulate and thereby control without challenge. They cant rule an electorate of thinkink, well read people like conservatives are.

The choice is between FREE enterprise and socialism.

How much of their freedom are they willing to give up to achieve socialism’s goals?

My first experience with unions was as a young teenager - when two union goons threatened to break my bones if I didn’t do exactly what they told me to do. I have hated unions with a passion ever since.

My first experience with socialism was also as a young teenager - when four young urban thugs with a knife and a baseball bat demanded that I hand over everything that I had earned to them, even though they had earned nothing and produced nothing. I would have been happy to see them get the death penalty either on the spot or in court, and I have hated socialists and criminals ever since.

I have read Marx’s “Capital” and his “Communist Manifesto”, and I understand socialism well enough to recognize it as armed robbery. I can discuss and debate the theory in detail with its supporters, but I don’t bother. Those who approve of socialism know that they are thieves. They just like the idea of getting more than their share of an ever-shrinking socialist pie.

Von Mises predicted that a mixed economy is unstable and would eventually evolve either to capitalism or socialism

I asked an intern from a local college. The reply was that socialism is being immersed in social media.
The article is right. they don’t know what it is.
