Sure it's the chapter after Rittenhouse the hunter in your book of lies... Right?
Nope. I’ll accept your apology anytime.Sure it's the chapter after Rittenhouse the hunter in your book of lies... Right?
Classical liberalism means undisguised class rule by a moneyed elite. That elite called it “liberty.” The workers called it freedom to put their political stamp on society, and freedom only in that respect. The mechanics, yeoman farmers, small-time professionals, small business owners, barbarians, and savages saw in it a highly variable mix of short-term opportunity and long-term threat to their way of life, political freedom relatively speaking often accompanied by economic degradation. To the kings, bishops, counts, and barons, it was the abasement of the deserving at the hands of the leveling spirit of the drunken Jacquerie. To the slaves it was the same old shit, until in the time of Franklin, Robespierre, and Toussaint L’Ouverture that there was enough of a chorus on the radical left to shame the classical liberals into for the first time (not from the time of Cicero to the time of Locke) treating slavery as a threat to its principles, which were after all about the liberty of propertied humans, not about the liberty of human property. In fact, slavery was only abolished in France, Spain, Holland, and much of Germany and Italy because Jacobins willing to violate liberal principles to maintain an alliance with the lower classes took state power out of the hands of the liberals, after slaves seized power of sugar-rich Saint Domingue from the liberal governments of France and its colony to create a left-wing military-police dictatorship. It was only abolished in the U.S. when our own Jacobin element, the Radical Republicans, elevated poor white “p*ckerwoods” and Black freedmen, into a position of power of the economic lives of investors who ended up losing more money than the Russian capitalists expropriated in 1917 or the Chinese capitalists expropriated in 1950.LOL! As if the "progressives" are (classical) "liberals."

That's ME - not you.
And what did Bat Boy have to say about the whole thing?Yes, I read a review of RFK Jr's book and he connects a lot of those dots. It's worse than you and I ever imagined!
Mussolini was a Marxist theoretician, before he broke with the Marxists to support the capitalist war hawks, then violently denounced Marxism in the name of a right-wing nationalist purgative counterrevolution. Hitler was a moron who couldn’t grasp theory more complex than “Your Christian kids are learning to hate themselves in (((Marx’s))) critical Hegelian theory lessons.”You and I both know that both Hitler and Mussolini were Marxists. The fact that you refuse to accept that fact makes it pretty difficult to have a rational discussion with you on the subject. But other examples exist (Hugo Chavez, Daniel Ortega and Idi Amin fit the bill).

Idi Amin was hardly leftist either. Took power with the help of Israel, tribalist and nationalist, he was a classic capitalist Bonapartist politician, maneuvering back and forth between left and right and between classes to entrench himself in power, but able to do so only by maintaining the capitalist regime. The same can be said of Ortega following his party’s political degeneration, or of Chavez, although their regimes’ literacy rest on a broad pro-democracy uprising in Nicaragua and on multiple popular elections for both while for Amin it rested on a military coup backed by the right.
There have of course been many left-wing dictators though. Julius Caesar, one of the first to hold the official title of dictator, was a leftist. So were Pisistratus (whose title was “tyrant”), Robespierre, Cromwell, Savonarola, Abdallah ibn Yasin, Brigham Young, Lenin, Castro, Ho Chi Minh, Pol Pot, Ivan the Terrible, Qin Shi Huang, Vlad the Impaler, and many more. Not all leftists are created the same. But what they all had in common was radical attacks on the prevailing property system.
Capitalism is "agnostic of politics" in that any political system, from enlightened despotism to representative republic to fascist dictatorship, is equally compatible with capitalism as long as it guarantees a steady supply of profits. The thing Idi Amin took power to protect, on behalf of a comprador bourgeoisie backed by a graft-seeking bureaucratic layer and a well-off officer corps.@Raoul_Luke
Richey, it's like you have no fvkin' idea what capitalism is. You confuse an economic theory with politics. Capitalism is agnostic of politics. Communism is an economic system inseparable from a political system because the base economic unit is not the individual but the blocked community. The idea that Idi Amin is a capitalist driven politician is just pure drivel.
Huh? So e dude and an orderly protest in pickups addresses the shut down burned down destroyed aspect? Lol... No.Nope. I’ll accept your apology anytime.
Man who assaulted, spit on person who asked him to wear mask sentenced to 10 years

Communism as a mode of production is inherently anarchistic because it lacks the class division that is at the root of politics (class struggle). Communism as a social movement is willing to take whatever political forms necessary to protect the general welfare from being sacrificed to the particular interests of a few privileged individuals, until by overcoming privilege in general it is able to re-establish communism as a mode of production.
Again, I provided evidence of what I claimed was happening, such as one of the dishes spitting on people for wearing masks and the “orderly protest” blocking ambulances’ access to hospitals. Meanwhile you have provided no evidence for what you claimed happened … “members of a major party” burning and destroying businesses.Huh? So e dude and an orderly protest in pickups addresses the shut down burned down destroyed aspect? Lol... No.
I didn't think I had to provide evidence of the fires in philadelphia, seattle, and so on that occurred earlier this yearAgain, I provided evidence of what I claimed was happening, such as one of the dishes spitting on people for wearing masks and the “orderly protest” blocking ambulances’ access to hospitals. Meanwhile you have provided no evidence for what you claimed happened … “members of a major party” burning and destroying businesses.
No, what you have to do is to provide evidence that “members of a major party” were responsible.I didn't think I had to provide evidence of the fires in philadelphia, seattle, and so on that occurred earlier this year
We have to pretend that they didn't occur?
Oddly no. What you produced wasa bunch of fat people protesting. Not what you claimed.No, what you have to do is to provide evidence that “members of a major party” were responsible.
A bunch of people of all sizes protesting efforts to keep us healthy because they understood those efforts to be harmful to Trump’s re-election chances.Oddly no. What you produced wasa bunch of fat people protesting. Not what you claimed.
Whine, Get a Check. Whine, Get a Check.So you're saying that blacks aren't smart enough to see those "tactics".
Gerrymandering and voter suppression of blacks by republicans are perfect examples.
That's why they don't vote republican.
Diploma Dumbos Substituted It for Old School's "A Contradiction in Terms"“Left wing fascist” is an oxymoron.
Socialism Is Capitalism, Jr.You and I both know that both Hitler and Mussolini were Marxists. The fact that you refuse to accept that fact makes it pretty difficult to have a rational discussion with you on the subject. But other examples exist (Hugo Chavez, Daniel Ortega and Idi Amin fit the bill).
A Dumbo Dubya With Charismaand got 58,429 Americans killed and twice that many after coming home due to Agent Orange
IMO.,,,,,,,had JFK killed also because he couldn't get elected
LBJ=Saddam
Thanks for your full-throated support of my argument...Mussolini was a Marxist theoretician, before he broke with the Marxists to support the capitalist war hawks, then violently denounced Marxism in the name of a right-wing nationalist purgative counterrevolution.

The idea that there is proof in the real world examples of communism that supports the notion that the commies managed to overcome the natural impulses of narcissistic sociopaths to rule the masses is inane.Classical liberalism means undisguised class rule by a moneyed elite. That elite called it “liberty.” The workers called it freedom to put their political stamp on society, and freedom only in that respect.
