Russia won’t invade

Putin’s an ass, but he’s not stupid

The government should be there to protect people from themselves

The problem is trusting the people you put in charge of it

British Gamer, what are your first and Second greatest presidents?

Because I’d argue he’s second, just behind Washington

I’d put Lincoln 3rd

Grant was awful

He destroyed the hope of a civil south

And they still do to this day

I live in the south

It’s a backwards hell hole

He essentially undid the civil war

All those union lives lost in vain

I like Jefferson as well

Not so good

He should have called off the Bay of Pigs invasion

It was ill advised, and not to mention just not ethically right

Well, nothing America did during the Cold War was ethical

But yeah, I suppose it was kinda par for the course

And his Civil Rights work and NASA stuff was great

And fucked over North Korea

All we had to do was not go into China

And what does McArthur do?

Go into China!

Exactly

What a maniac

We had the war won

I agree with American involvement in Korea

But I can’t abide by what they did in Vietnam

Ho Chi Min had the will of the people

They were freedom fighters

South Vietnam was a militant state

Somehow Communists were more accepting than that “Democracy”

That’s why put the “”

Sorry

I really wish I could fully endorse communism

But it’s just so easy to manipulate!

Capitalism is totally fucked

Better than no socialism

But I subscribe to Kantian Ethics, are you familiar?

It’s the idea that intent is really all that matters

That’s why I have no problems with Lenin or Trotsky

But I still hate companies that sometimes donate to charity

Because the almost never care about the charity

It’s just their PR guy said they have to stand for something

Well, anything would be better that Stalin my dude

But Trotsky would have done more harm to the communist image imo

He would have straight up invaded Eastern Europe

And while I believe his reasoning to do so would’ve been sound

He wouldn’t have succeeded

And communists might have been stamped out fully

But yeah

If Trotsky took power

There wouldn’t be a Hitler

He would have funded the hell out to the German Communist Party

And the Nazis would have been gone by 1930

Shit you’re right

We’d have a Iran-Contra on our hands

The commies would lose Greece

The Nationalists would have totally dominated the Spanish Civil war

No contest

Yeah, that’s the one thing he did right

Speech writing genius

But it would have never lasted

See, communism done right brings the whole working class up

The Nazis needed a boogie man

They would have gone after minority after minority until there were no left

Then they’d be stuck

No, I was talking about the Nazis

Fascism as a whole is based on fear-mongering

That’s why I can’t abide by the majority of Communist and Socialist countries

Both sides never cared about the people

They just had to be better that the alternative

Triggered, libtard?

Not really

But actually yeah, we’re just having a conversation dude

Are you referring to democratic socialism?

Self awareness and memes my dude

Like, I’m officially an An Com

But if you were to ask me what I am, I’d say a libtard

Self awareness is one thing I admire the right for and dislike the left for

Most of them are the same as alt right people

There isn’t that big of a difference in the ideologies of the alt left and alt right

But I find the argument that we wouldn’t have the internet and shit to be BS

People always want to make stuff better

True inventors don’t care for profit at all

Capitalism just gets us shit like as Seen on TV products

Tesla, Musk, Gutenberg, Branson, Franklin, and the list goes on

With the exception of Musk and Branson, money means nothing to these people

Power causes corruption

And capitalism creates a cheat to power

Money

The rich don’t need to be elected

They can just lobby the shit out of Congress

At least the government is supposed to be held accountable

The rich have plenty of power, and they have no allegiance to helping the people they serve or employ

I was referring to lobbying

The loophole

The way around democracy, dumbass
