It’s true that there are no “ideologically” communist countries. But why do you figure that is? Because communism doesn’t work. If it did, we would see examples of it. But every time, it quickly devolves into fascism or despotism. And there is one important reason for that—power corrupts. A communist government requires absolute power to enforce communism, at which point it becomes uncontrollable. There is nothing to ensure it will adhere to ideological communist principals. And those in power inevitably become corrupt.
Very interesting to see. Illuminating.
I saw Ben Shapiro do one of these things, and he destroyed the people surrounding him.
‘And those with that much power will inevitably become corrupt’, is what I should have finished with. It’s not so much that I disagree with communism or socialism themselves. If done voluntarily then it doesn’t look so bad. It’s when you have to hand over absolute power to government, or any enforcing “collectivism” that it becomes no different than slavery of the whole population.
I wonder if she realizes that I need a new house, new car, gas, electric, etc., etc., and I do not feel like working for it so she better get busy supplying me with those things.
And HOW DARE she impose her ideological imperialism on other nations. Don’t they get to decide what communism means to them? The woman is a left-wing imperialist pig. (Not sure whether I’m being sarcastic or not)
Sarcasm is like the demon core in the manhattan project. Tickling the dragon’s tail, as it were. No one who uses it knows exactly what they’re doing, but they do it anyway. It’s gotten me into a lot of trouble.
He should have said
she is free to go live in a
commune and work and share
everything.
I believe they exist today in
parts of America.
Though, there may be a man in charge.
Have to be careful.
A manson family member wannabee …….
Or ask her what job she would do in the communist country.
Because everybody works.
I had to watch this ‘debate’ in pieces...too much to really absorb in one viewing. In the end....I judged all of the participants (other than the capitalist)...to be ‘cult-like’, or like the Manson family members (like you suggest).
BTTT
And why is that? Because all are sinners, which is why communism is a Christian heresy that teaches people are inherently good and only need the right circumstances to lose their inherent selfishness.
As criminality is exposed, democrats, rinos, media leftists, and everyday criminals have taken to the airwaves to promote their hand in the pie not belonging to them. The aforementioned (democrats, rinos, media leftists) find their sob stories (prayers these stories are not) are no longer *waking* the GREAT unwoke. It is a great time to be alive and witness wokeness running from a MAJORITY American unwoke.
That would make a great reality show: American communism enthusiasts move to a real communist country.
Except of course that the filmmakers would be executed.
People who think socialist/communist countries are freer and more altruistic towards their people than non-communist/socialist countries, have never actually had to live in one.
And apparently do not want to, even if offered a free opportunity to.
There is a direct correlation between individual freedom and free market capitalism.
Anti-capitalist: the person who can holler the loudest without knowing what she is hollering about.
The commies did that in the 1920s. Moved to Russia to enjoy communism. At first they were given show-jobs, then off to work camps in Siberia, then off to WWII. Most didn’t make it.
People like that moronic lefty female needs to visit North Korea and interview the SUBJECTS of North Korea. Ask them if they are free...also ask them about the Kim family, too. You might enjoy their jail.
