I don’t think I’m a commie

You might not be, but I haven't seen very intelligent arguments from anyone proclaiming themselves to be a socialist

but, as far as Stalin stuff goes, I’m 4PT about it

usually not

(though libertarians are generally not better)

WHAT DID YOU SAY ABOUT LIBERTARIANS

😛

Yeah I guess you could pull the "it's not real libertarianism" thing out

As a counterpart to "it's not real socialism"

yeah, the no-true-Scotsman args have to be substantiated at least

otherwise, moving the goalposts like that is faggy

(or Pharisaic)

(but I repeat myself)

NSDAP, though, didn’t use the word *socialist* for nothing

National Socialism is not simply national capitalism

though I do think it didn’t go far enough

so it failed to whack exploiters who were not Jewish

failed to catch many of the biggest Jews who did deserve to die

and killed some Jews who really posed no threat

I don't think you're gonna find a lot of people here who support government control in our private lives

Post your political compass

haha, my political compass is red zone

Oh god

at base, I’m pretty Confucian

but for the nation to actually secure itself against foreign interference

If you're not screaming about revolution and you don't have hammer and sickles in your name, I don't really mind

I do think a lot of ‘left’-sounding stuff has to be done

I probably don't agree with you but I don't mind you

revolution sometimes is necesssary, sometimes not

depends on the circumstances

This conversation is all over the place

@Platz is this too hammer-and-sickle for you? https://twitter.com/LueYee/status/774495223963611136

sorry, @Hernán Cortés, I contain multitudes

Would you agree or disagree that hierarchy is essential to civilization?

Personally I support your freedom to converse in a reasonable manner here, but I don't represent the people in charge

of c we need hierarchy

I even think China needs emperors back, but in a diff. way

I also think that’s compatible with a lowercase national socialism

Largest Non-Nuke bomb is US arsenal.

without some of the stupid stuff Marx said

Would you agree or disagree that capitalism is the best possible system we can currently implement, not because it aims to maximize equality, but because it aims to maximize efficiency?
