The New Meme: Even Communists Are Better Than Obama

However, we start writing this "stuff" and MSNBC and the Behar crowd will get all "confucioused".

[GOPJ]

Ummm, I suspect the ‘takers’ would like it much better...

[sickoflibs]

They are right. There was no poor. The people had all the rights. There was true freedom of speech. Life was fair. Not sure why it ended.

11 per cent never to be trusted under any circumstances.

I’d bet a dollar to a donut that this 11% bunch of freaks is made up of the “College Students” Gone Wild crowd and newly arrived “immigrants” who came here only for the freebies. Americans would never say this.

It fails everywhere its tried.

Xplains O’s 24% strongly approve.

I've heard similar stats before, glad it isn't growing. I wouldn't be too surprised if there are a lot of people in that study who have no idea what communism is besides redistribution and people like a guy I knew who kinda liked the whole idea but admitted it was entirely imposable due to human nature. He voted GOP here and there, good guy and kind of a character.

So then, which part of the deaths of hundreds of millions does the morally superior part kick in?

[Fiddlstix]

GEEEZ!!
11% total idiots?
13% idiots in training?

[ThunderSleeps]

Well then, 11% of the people in that sample don't know history. Or maybe they don't know statistics very well. Although it is pretty easy to understand that communism/socialism has a 100% failure rate in creating happy, prosperous, liberal, and free societies. No matter how bad you are at statistics or history, that simple fact should ring through even the thickest skull.

Communism/socialism sucks, it is an epic fail. It does not work. It never has worked. It can never work. Technology doesn't matter. Enlightenment doesn't matter. Who is in charge doesn't matter. Socialism just plain does not work, period. It has been tried numerous times and always, always fails. Why anyone would embarrass themselves by promoting it I have no idea. Why not promote other ideas that universally suck, like slavery (which socialism is not far off from), or eugenics, or a flat-Earth...

Socialism, has there ever been an idea as widely held that was then proven wrong time and time again in such an embarrassingly overwhelming fashion?

[Revolting cat!]

This isn't better

than this?

[He Rides A White Horse]

When it comes to polls, I firmly believe that the exact wording of the questions should be available as well.

[CommieCutter]

OMG I’m celebrating. How many years have they been teaching communist-lite to our kids? 11%? They control the media, Holywood, and the public education, and only 11%?

[Jack Hydrazine]

Just export them to North Korea and let them find out just how superior it is!

[oyez]

Communist system is morally superior than the current U.S. system.

When things start to fail or the opposition get to strong Commies just out an murder people. That is really superior.

[businessprofessor]

This poll wildly understates the preference for communism. The entire rat party prefers Marxism with a strong hatred for economic freedom and capitalism. Rats tolerate capitalism to provide a convenient whipping boy and an easy target to steal from. The rat vision is everyone working for the government except for an enslaved capitalist class producing the wealth.
