For a party that markets itself on "less government interference" and "keep the government out of people's business" they sure like getting the government into people's business. |

Not saying strong socialism can work in a big nation state, but I don't think this idea of buying the means of production from the elite is the best thing to do, although it may be better than nothing. The wealth would still be concentrated into the same small number of hands. Another option would ... |

Lol.Great point although the Marxists would prolly argue that the workers collectively own the means of production through their government. Collectively own the means of production through the government sounds like another way of saying the government owns the means of production. Government woul... |

Is this one of those things where socialists believe LGBT is mainly practice by the bourgeoisie and that the proletariat have neither the wealth nor free time to practice such extravagant displays of heterodoxy? Thing is, the capitalists commercialize pride month and also commercialize many holiday... |

Capitalism is just an economic system wherein the means of production are not owned by the workers. It is neither evil nor good, but only a means of making value-added profit for those who DO own the means of production -- the Capitalists. So basically, if you want the capitalists to solve the wor... |

Capitalism is just another way of saying the race to the bottom. Of course it poisons everything it touches, that's what toxins do. That's it! From now on I'm only playing video games made by socialist countries! What follows is a list of video games I will be playing. ⋅ Tetris End of list |

Ah. I was referring to private things such as fetishes and kinks. Pride parades organized by the capitalist class usually have public displays of fetishes and kinks as a means of demonizing LGBT and profiting from the culture war between the Democrats and Republicans in America. Is this one of thos... |

Punchline? I prefer to call it a simile. Jesus liked to say "the kingdom of heaven is like..." Well if he can use similes so can I. Today's highly distorted cult-of-Trump version of the GOP that appeals to Christian Nationalism has more to do with Southern Democrats than with the old 'part... |

This reminds me of a thread I saw on WP a few years ago. Someone asked, why has Evangelical Christianity stolen the Right? He was corrected several times over. Evangelical Christianity has not stolen the Right. It is the other way around. This is the group who, in the past would say "We're not ... |

In my experience it all comes down to having a reasonably good job. NT women don't want to date a man who will become a financial burden on them. I don't blame them. I wouldn't want to date an unemployed woman for the same reason. Another thing that will help you on the second or third date is havin... |

This is against the 1st amendment that guarantees our right to free speech.I am not going to listen to a government tell me what I can and can not say. Well in that case it will be unenforceable.
