Why not let these younger folks have their socialism and watch them suffer the result. They deserve what they get because again, they’re stupid and lazy.


Because not all of us want socialism

Morphing into technocracy, which the socialists prefer because of the constitutional limits on authority.

Already have it. FDR, LBJ, and Obama were biggest contributors but all of them increased socialism. Trump and his farm welfare, pay to stay home unemployment, increased food stamps and school meal spending was pretty big too.

This has been a socialist country for a long time now. Every government program is socialism. Ever hear of Social Security?


Its amazing how many socialists cannot define socialism.

I suppose that's why you support it, you have no clue to its dangers.

Start?

Did you say start?


Where have you been hibernating?

No they wouldn't. They'd still bitch because they love virtue signaling.

Socialism started in the 1930s ("The New Deal"), if not earlier.

The worst thing to possibly happen to us was the Patriot Act. It did as much as LBJ or FDR could possibly have done.

It created a massive intelligence/security industry that will not get dialed back.

The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people’s money.

I’m 57 and my brother is 61. We’ve been having this conversation for a while about socialism. We’ve fought against socialism our entire adult lives and it’s clear that the next generation is surrendering. They want it because quite frankly, they’re stupid and lazy.

We’ve pretty done everything and purchased all that we want or need in this life. Why not let these younger folks have their socialism and watch them suffer the result. They deserve what they get because again, they’re stupid and lazy.


My kids and their friends are all GenZ and are either in college or just graduated. They are fighting the real battle. I give them props because a majority of their peers are educated idiots... Yes, I said that.

My son has said there isn't a single professor so far who is remotely unbiased. He wants to quit but knows that would be a career suicide. I never dealt with anything at that level. TBH, I don't even know what to tell him to make him think things will be better.
It won't.

Socialists are the people who are actively calling for a monopoly on almost all goods and services.

Most adults realize monopolies are backward and horrible for the average person, except these Democrats.

People like socialism when it's well funded by capitalism.

They won't like it after that.


That's exactly what is going on. Progressives are draining every resource in the name of virtue. They remind me of a liberal trust fund baby whose conservative parents just died and left them with EVERYTHING. They blow all of their parents money while cursing their parents for being fascists.

Then when the money goes dry curses them even more and will say "see? Capitalism has failed us."
