12th Man 884 Posted June 17, 2019 Quote “We will take America without firing a shot. We do not have to invade the U.S. We will destroy you from within....” AOC, Socialism and now this: Quote “I don’t believe our current economic system actually works. Um, capitalism by design is extractive and in order to generate profit in a capitalist system, something has to be exploited, that’s land, labor or resources. And I think that we’re in late phase capitalism and we know it doesn’t work and we have to move into something new, and I believe in community ownership of land, labor, resources and distribution of those resources. And whatever that morphs into is I think what will serve community the best and I’m excited to usher it in by any means necessary.” https://jonathanturley.org/2019/06/14/denver-elects-candidates-calling-for-community-ownership-of-land-labor-and-resources/comment-page-1/ What a shame. These leftist idiots have seen socialism and communism fail all over the world but yet still plan on brining it here. Krushchev was right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JustinCharge 2,397 Posted June 18, 2019 They justify it in their heads by making a list of criticisms of capitalism and only looking at that while ignoring criticisms of other systems. After a while, they brainwash themselves to the point where we obviously need to remove capitalism. Society is also doing this with religion. Many people make up a list of complaints about religion and only focus on that. They refuse to think about all the good things religion does to help the poor. After a while, they brainwash themselves into a raging hatred of religion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Offering free handouts in exchange for votes is considered the most crass form of a broken corrupt democracy. Some might argue that socialism is just dressing it up and trying to make it look good.

Voltaire 5,182 Posted June 18, 2019 It was all explained to us 35 years ago and has survived the collapse of the Soviet Union. Had I heard this back then, I'd have thought it absurd and impossible, but the man is absolutely prescient, what he's describing is absolutely the situation in 2019 when you listen with 2019 ears. Sabotaging us from within our own educational system, using our liberalism and tolerance against us, was a REAL Soviet conspiracy they pulled on us and the fruits of these seeds of hijacking academia are blooming in the US and all over the West (but, ironically not in Russia, China, and Eastern Europe who are all fully vaccinated against communism ideology today).

This is why Russia has like 20 military bases ringing the arctic pointing straight at the US and is furiously modernizing them and getting ready for a huge war. This is why China is furiously building up its army. They both know and understand this. They can CLEARLY see the US is headed for civil war. Russia has admitted it several times: they see the US headed for a civil war and they need a huge fookin army to be ready for the fallout. Russia and China know they have no choice but to invade the US and try to settle it down because there are no adults in charge in the US anymore at any level and its all big babies crying about issues and wrecking everything now.
