@Jym If you genuinely failed to understand what I was saying, I don't think I can bring myself to keep talking to you. It's like talking to a brick wall.

Jym quit being impertinent, its not cute anymore.

Anyway, what Jym's saying is police and fire fighters and whatever else makes up the current balance of social programs is where he draws the line.

he's not trying to say, oh, privatize the police or some shit

at least I think

Yeah, well I care about the people dying from a lack of basic medical care.

So forgive me for drawing the line beyond "just the police."

And etc.

I understood perfectly well. I'm just pointing out why you are wrong (I believe in the principal of charity so I say wrong rather than lying).

Lying about what? What I believe? What would I gain from that?

And proving me wrong how? All you've done so far is make false equivalencies - strawman me.

You keep saying 'strawman' like it is a magic talisman.....

No, I am not.

You keep acting like anything socialist will lead to a communist dystopia.

no, that's just how badly he's wording his statements, cuz he's a normalfag that can't bother to articulate.

That is the very definition of strawmanning. Anyone affiliated with the Democrats _must_ be corrupt somehow. And fair enough, Joker.

Socialism is a historically failed ideology

I think Joker is likely the stupidest person in this convo, which is quite an accomplishment.

Some of the old blue dog dems arent so bad

all of washington is corrupt, that's not a disputable claim.

But the mouth frothing socialists are just historically illiterate

Anyway, I gotta go eat dinner, so, regrettably, this is where I must bow out. Aaaaaaand I retract the regrettably. You have carried yourself excellently, Joker, and Jym has done anything but.

At no point did I say anyone associated with the DNC is a socialist. I said Warren likely is. Which is valid.

Bye Fellicia.

Damn you thirsty @Jokerfaic

A not totalitarian version of a socialist ideology in practice is GB in the 1970s when the socialist labour party crashed the economy

m8 not my fault you throw in superfluously inflammatory chaff in with your statements that throw people off.

No you just shriek partisan at people and take your toys and go home when you lose an argument

like holy fuck, how hard is it to say "I don't like socialism, but I like police and etc, which are funded publicly"

no, you throw in weird shit like "oh btw I'm not calling you a liar"

what the actual fuck did you think you were accomplishing with that?

Thats not socialism tho

How hard is it to not m'lady any socialist who talks to you.

In case you hadn't noticed I come hard at commies and fash.

Just because the governments uses taxes to do something doesnt make it socialist

@Tiberius no, its not, which is my point. he failed so spectacularly in separating the two in the conversation

It's OK I'm sure your 2D GF still loves you....

Publicly funded =/= socialism either

ok what the fuck is he going on about now?

Hes making fun of you for thirsting after the chicky that just checked out for dinner

?

that was a chick?
