Trump Makes Progressive Democrats Go Left Toward Toward Socialism.
Take Trumps putting "Are You a US Citizen" on the next census. The Democrats and their minions scream foul. Yet Trumps move lets us know how many immigrants (non citizens) that we have. How else are we to know so directly. So the Democrats move even further left.
Trump say he will use the military to Fund some of the Wall and the same thing happens. Democrats don't care if they go so far left that they don't care about the dead ranchers and the drugs runners pouring across our borders.
The only question is how far left will Trump now make them go?
Progressives ARE socialists~!
There are already very far left. The only thing Trump is doing is exposing it.
You mean towards Communism..for the left Socialism isn’t far enough they prefer Communism
There’s no room to move any farther left.
Socialism is the process of getting to full-on communism.
This is why you can never fully get to true communism. The leadrs kew it was a never-ending process.
Learn some history, PLEASE. Progressivism is the experimental means by which COMMUNISTS plan to convert the USA through regulation and social engineering instead of through the bloody revolution favored by Marx.
Socialism is to the RIGHT of the intended endgame for Progressivism.
Tell the shocking truth and Democrats are revealed as the monsters they are.
But, so we don’t miss what seems to be your point, there’s plenty of room for them to move their public image to the left.
They are and always have been communist, domestic enemies of the state.
But it seems the point of the thread is probably more nuanced.
Progressive democrats fake their public image. They pretend to be mainstream, meanwhile their game is communism.
The poster is right in pointing out that Trump makes them show their cards.
No. They are taking us left as fast as they can push us. None of us are pushing them left.
There both the same thing.
Trump isn’t making them go LEFT to socialism... they already are there, he’s just exposing it by forcing them to show their hand.
Your question, and your post, is very good.
Trump will make them go much farther than they want to go, we can be sure of that.
“… [I]t is very clear that in fundamental theory, socialism and democracy are almost, if not quite, one and the same. They both rest at bottom upon the absolute right of the community to determine its own destiny and that of its members. Men as communities are supreme over men as individuals. …”The Dems were there a very long time ago. So was the GOP.
— Woodrow Wilson, Socialism and Democracy, 1887
You’re wrong. Trump is pushing them left.
Don’t miss the point of the thread.
No, the dems were not there a very long time ago. Neither was the GOP.
What you need to understand here is the secret to their game.
Their secret is pretend to be the opposite of what you really are.
So the poster is making a very good point.
He’s saying that Trump is making the democrats push their public image to the left.
It’s a very good thing Trump is doing, and it’s good to make posts like this one giving credit to Trump.
>>But it seems the point of the thread is probably more nuanced.
Since Progressivism is THE enemy of American freedom and exceptionalism, the poster should focus his nuances better so it is apparent that he actually understands the ideology he is writing about. Then, he can “nuance”.
It’s 2018. FReepers should be able to explain Progressivism correctly before they post a vanity.
