How are all my favorite communists hhhhhmmmm?

So apparently there are liberal college students out there who think Trump is a Socialist...

So apparently Hypeline news thinks that Nazi Germany practiced socialism just because of their label...

The kids can rant and rave trash and talking points because the results have basically no impact on their lives.

An adult has a vested interest and approaches the subject from a mature and serious nature. Instead of simply being flippant.

Instead of resorting to your usual off the cuff retorts, how about we discuss the actual subject matter and why it's so important to nip it in the bud now, rather than letting it continue to fester and grow like a cancer? With the country and individual ideals paying the bottom line price.



Ahhh, **** it. I don't stand a chance in hell with this crowd. Fire away kiddies.

Ironically enough, the Nazis might have actually been Socialist in a lot of ways without realizing it. There's some interesting data out there available.

Weird how you can have some aspects that you regularly find outside of socialism in your system and not actually be socialist huh. Kind of like how you wouldn't call America a socialist nation because of our roads, schools, and financial assistance for the rich.

And I assume you understand how little credibility that source and writer are so I'll leave that alone, but you couldn't tell from the language that that was some biased nonsense? I thought choirs knew when the preacher was jabbering at them.

Considering how many people mouth off on this thread, I find it interesting you'd bring up writer credibility. :D

Biased or not, he makes some good points and I'm glad I shared it.

Because I've never called someone out on their **** before.

Been there tbh but tsk tsk nonetheless.

All I'm saying is that it was ironic that the Nazis supposedly hated Socialism when their society was basically a Socialist state economically (albeit one that wanted to eradicate the Jews).

I've seen so many Trump = Hitler comparisons lately I just found the college student video kind of interesting, which led into this.

Frownland 04-03-2017 11:00 PM

Gotta say that this is the first time I've heard the Nazis hating socialism trope. I call into question that article's justification for the Nazi government because of what I read in this article (that he also wrote): https://www.therebel.media/why_i_no_...ademic_studies
