No
He's right
Democratic socialist is different from social democratic
democratic socialism is the same thing as socialism
oh yeah
thats true
Cortez and Bernie are social democrats
Democratic socialism is (ideally) a form of socialism, but social democracy is just capitalism with enough lefty stuff added
Sorta
soc dem is just a mixed economy
socialism can never be democratic
False
Socialism is just public ownership of means of production, which makes ost sense when done fully democratically
Although itโs still very untested on a major scale
Which it can't be
seizing the means of production is not democratic
How canโt it be
Because seizing the MoP is always forceful
because companies won't just hand themselves over
hMMmmM
WW2 did not end the great depression
Change my mind
it ended before
https://www.economist.com/finance-and-economics/2008/12/30/diagnosing-depression
The economist, fair journal, defines a depression as meeting
10% decline in real GDP or a recession that lasts more than 3 yrs
if you look at real GDP in the later half of the 30s, you already start to see growth
It didn't end before WW2
GDP growing does not signal an end of a recession
I used the definition the economist did
It's wrong
unless you want to provide an alternative one
A recession is 2 quarters of economic growth
decline you mean?
but an economy hasn't recovered until the unemployment is down to the pre recession levels
which wasn't the case
However this is all face value, gdp growth is a good representation of the state of an economy quite a few times.
For example WW2 had high gdp growth and 0 unemployment almost.
But thats not economic prosperity
well we disagree on the definition of recession lol
many people believe that recession is a negative event
you just said it's positive
thats not the defintion used in US
it's 2 negative quarters
wut
```

oops
I meant negative
xd
lol
The New Deal saved everything ๐ฟ
There was no multiplier effect in ww2, consumption just shrank and all the scarce resources were used to build tanks and weapons. This did not grow the economy, it did increase the quality of material standard of living
Unemployment was at 0% but the recession did not end
It's pretty easy to remove unemployment when your nation is at war and there is a draft
If it were like this we would have all the workers in the army and fleet with 0% unemployment
and nothing to eat
I wouldn't put economic prosperity as a criteria against a recession
Wdym?
well by economic prosperity, what do you mean?
I'd say a recession hasn't been recovered until the unemployment has reached pre recession levels
Like a rise in the material standard of living
okay if you're saying a recession is based around the unemployment rate, then it would have ended in the early 40s when unemployment reached almost 0
but I don't think it's tied to the unemployment rate as much as it is to gdp
Normally the recession is still in place until unemployment reaches pre recession levels
thats how almost everyone says it
whether or not there is 2 quarters of negative growth
But no thats the point, unemployment being 0 was artifical. As in the recession was still in place and didn't end
well the reason I disagree with that interpretation is because if the recession starts because of economic activity, shouldnt it also end with economic activity
i believe gdp is a better indicator of economic activity than unemployment
the economy also includes unemployment
if people are unemployed in tons, the economy is not doing well
thats atleast how recessions are measured in mainstream
thats why 2008 was such a long recession or "recovery"
yeah I figure thats because unemployment tends to affect the average person more than the gdp of a country does
ye it's just an indicator
like if you grow gdp 2% in a recession but unemployment is at 10% when it was at 3% pre recession
you're still in a recession
gdp usually grows faster than people finding new jobs
so of course it'll take longer for the unemployment to fall back down after gdp recovers
Yeah thatโs why the recession is still being felt
Satanism has evolved
We're headed toward another dark age; Rome saw a huge increase in sexual deviancy including homosexuality and transgenderism immediately preceding its fall.
Lmao that's not true, they were extremely tolerant of homosexuality, then moved away from those beliefs, then the empire fell
it's the exact opposite
Plato espoused homosexual acceptance centuries before the fall of Rome
then like 100 years before the fall they outlawed gay marriage, then the sacking of Rome happened
so like, nah
https://appliedsentience.com/2013/07/19/a-global-historical-survey-does-accepting-homosexuality-lead-to-civilizational-ruin/ in fact there's some evidence that accepting homosexuality is associated with really positive trends in society. The only negative impact I see with homosexuality acceptance is it causes all the homophobes to act out because they get afraid. But I want to read more about this beyond this source.
"The global trends are as clear as can be. Policy towards homosexuality has been overwhelming liberal with increasing acceptance in the past 100-200 years. During this same time almost all indicators concerning quality of life and civilizational โadvancementโ, instead of decline, have shown vast improvement.
In other words, acceptance of homosexuality in fact correlates with the strengthening of the social fabric."
you could also correlate human sacrifice helped out the aztecs
my larger point is that the correlation IVLIVS pointed out is bunk
Do you think our civilization is getting stronger as it tolerates and celebrates expanding varieties of sexual deviancy
i think we should return back to ritual sacrifice
I think your definition of sexual deviancy is lame and unhelpful so uh yeah?
but it's a loaded question so no haha
Are you capable of talking like someone with a brain or do you need these valley girl-isms at the end of every sentence
ad hominems bruh, stop using them
oh wait you're the libtard that's a girl lmao
am I? I was unaware
Are you?
hahahaha well why bother telling you you seem to have it all figured out
I am a white, 22 year old man if it matters (and it doesn't)
You should stop talking like a teenage girl then
it is disgraceful
mercy me, have I offended your delicate sensibilities
I am not so much offended as I am concerned for you
I appreciate the concern! I'm doin pretty well tho
You are not acting in a masculine way
oh no
you will not be doing well at all until you embrace your natural role in society
nobody will respect you while you talk like a valley girl
I mean I love my job, have great friends, so idk what you mean
surely you have experienced this
uh, no
do you just avoid being around masculine men who might judge you for your this
do you surround yourself with similarly weak men and women who do not make you feel inadequate
I have all kinds of friends? Friends that like to go hunting, friends that are feminine, friends that like to lift weights and party, friends that are sensitive artists. I surround myself with good people, that's the only rule. All your attempts to make me look shitty are pretty funny tbh.
I don't know it looks like I touched a nerve
you're just asking me questions ๐
haha so triggered rn wow
sweatin over here
*oh god my masculinity*
You've become erratic and panicky, I think you are triggered
mkayyyy
lmao
Every gay is going to hell.
Its sad.
People like you who think its accepted.
Are making more people become gay.
Homosexuality is like a disease.
It SPREADS.
When 1 person becomes gay and people tolerate it.
Others think its okay.
Then they become gay.
I hate the LGBTP so much.
shadow agrees that we should return to sacrificing people
It also spreads by rape
Is it true that 80% of gays have diseases
like hiv
Victims of molestation usually become hypersexual in adulthood, and victims of homosexual molestation usually become hypersexual gays.
So what you're saying is
Gays are mentally ill
Now that is epic
ok I think you guys are going way too far, if you don't accept the LGBT that's fine then just ignore it. The stuff you guys are saying is too far.
I personally don't understand it, but they can do what they want to do.
so I "accept" it ig
But it's a mental illness
Transgenderism is a mental illness known as gender dysphoria. Being gay/bi isn't, you're just attracted to something else.
But they can't make babies
ok and?
a lot of married couples never have children
They don't have mental illnesses obviously
Besides a lot of them adopt children, which helps give kids homes
And create more gays
Not true
just because you are raised by a gay couple doesn't make you gay
same way Republican families can have democrat children, or vice versa.
you're parents beliefs aren't always passed down to you
especially not sexual preferences
only if it's conservative it needs to be passed down
Muffster, what are your thoughts on human sacrifice?
People can believe in what they want to believe. While i'm a conservative personally i'm fine with democrats/liberals.
everyone has different opinions on certain issues
Sacrifice gays to please almighty god
wow
Thats a good start
but there's a lot more people who need to be sacrificed too
Hillary Clinton
Bernie Sanders
...
That donkey I forgot her name.
Something with a z at the end
it's okay kylo
Talks about god, yet wants people to die that they don't even know
nice
definitely heaven material
well
Because I'm white and a male so I automatically get access
Ok you're a troll, thanks for the confirmation. Go back to the KKK discord
in the book of numbers, god did say something like "tribute thirty two virgins to me"
I don't agree with the kkk
you just made a white supremacy statement my guy
literally just seconds ago
I was making fun of liberals when they say white privilege
you also have in the book of john "the blood of bulls are not enough to wipe away sin"
The KKK is not JUST a white supremist group.
that's their main focus
I'm not a racist I just think whites shouldn't mix with other races
You also have thou shalt not judge their neighbor
you can't pick and choose bible quotes
oh speaking of judge
in the book of judges
God told Jephthah to sacrifice his next newborn
and he did
choosing religion to defend your argument isn't a good pathway
ever
I think it's needed
For what
as a form of punishment at the least
even if you don't believe in the abrahamic god
I think for punishment you should be sent to the front lines
well its a good thing we don't have someone like you running the country, I would rather take 500 AOC's over you.
Lol
any crime
Right - That man is going to jail for murder!
Left - That man is going to jail for smirking!
Hi
hello visitor
what are you thoughts about sacrifice?
Did someone call for a libgay
like huamn lives
Sacrifice?
yeah
Bad.
Like ritual sacrifice??
yea
Whatโs wrong with ritual sacrifices?
like in the bible
Heckkkk no
Oh hey
everything
Another libgay
numbers, exodus, genesis
Why no? They are a good thing....
No they are not
why not
How are they a bad thing?
Sacrifice only the people who believe in sacrifices
Yeah let's kill someone for no reason
woohoo
Yeep
No, you have to sacrifice non believers as well.
no
Sacrifice everyone except yourself
Itโs not for โno reasonโ itโs for a good reason
kylo, look at the examples I've given you in the bible
To summon Shaggy
None of them are for no reason
The only sacrifice is made by our military and veterans everyday
Again, if you try using religion as an argument I won't accept it
it makes you completely uncredible
how so
Wow
Because religion isn't factual
in anyway
This dude is a non believer
the most followed religion and most produced book
It is fact idiot/
