There is a struggle going on because Trump is dismantling the Leviathan and restoring the American dream. It often doesn’t seem that way listening to the media. Our media, academia and many in politics serially violate traditional, classic liberal standards. They have an obsession over Trump’s blunt personality, lack of verbal sophistication and “nuance.” … Read more
Democrats and Republicans seem to agree on one thing: Bernie Sanders cannot defeat President Trump in the general election. While his raucous crowds and early campaign victories suggest widespread support, a recent Gallup poll confirms that 53 percent of Americans surveyed would not vote for a socialist presidential candidate.
Today Bill de Blasio, New York City Mayor, former Democrat presidential candidate said he believes the Wuhan coronavirus is a prime example of why it’s important for the federal government to nationalize “crucial factories and industries.”
Here, let me make it easy for them (and their ilk) by using just three pictures to show the three main stages of getting to Communism.
Socialism is a game for the connected rich. In the Former Soviet Union, they are oligarchs and the wealthy connected class. The real one-percent. The people who want equality to mean everyone but them. And Socialist Sanders supporters are no different.
It is time for Bernie and all the people thinking of supporting him to face the truth about Socialism. Socialism works in opposition to liberty. It destroys free societies. America today faces a wide array of threats with one commonality: They all oppose American freedom.
If you are indifferent to the goals of the Greens, you are in for a rude awakening. The American Left’s Green New Deal (GND) really would have a catastrophic effect on our incomes and lifestyles. Don’t believe me? Exhibit One: a UK court just blocked a runway project at Heathrow Airport in London.
Young adults are the largest demographic voting block that embraces socialism. History has shown that all socialist and communist governments have murdered millions of their dissident citizens. So, where does the love affair for socialism originate for America’s youth?
CNN got busted by Project Veritas, and now it’s ABC’s turn. Washington correspondent, David Wright, an admitted socialist, was recorded exposing the blatant partisan nature of ABC’s reporting. His reward for this unwanted honesty was a suspension.
BUMPED: from APRIL 17, 2016. I was searching for something else (there’s a lot that turns up with over 36,000 posts in here) but came across this about New Harmony – America’s SECOND run at Socialism (the Plymouth Pilgrims were first, IMHO) that failed horribly because all attempts at Socialism fail. Why? There will NEVER be “the right people to implement” because they refuse, unlike our Founders, to recognize that we humans can’t (or won’t) be “evolved”. They view us as mere parts of their “social machine” to be moved around as THEY want. Have a read because BERNIE SANDERS!

If you are always reading, you will learn something new all the time! And this I didn’t know, that socialism (and the tendency of Progressives to try (force?) to “perfect” others arrived here on our shores much earlier than the late 1800s in this piece labeled “The Character of a Socialist” (emphasis mine, reformatted):
Upon initial inspection, Bernie Sanders’ near monolithic appeal to America’s youngest voters is perplexing. Why would the first generation of the 21st Century gravitate toward a living relic of the 20th Century who has made it his objective to rehabilitate the very worst idea of the 19th Century? Some say that it is a lamentable aspect of the modern age that history is poorly taught, and its lessons must be eternally relearned. The appeal of Bernie Sanders-style socialism may, however, have as many roots in the simple absence of a degree of prudence and wisdom, qualities that cannot be conferred in a classroom.
Nope, sometimes you need “failure experience” – something that these youngers haven’t had the time to get (and still quite full of themselves to boot).
A word to Bruce Currie, a frequent liberal commenter here at the ‘Grok whokeeps on insisting that a marketplace can ONLY exist with Government overseeing and regulating it. So, how is it possible for democracy to conflict with liberty? Democracy is a scheme for governing human interaction. But so is liberty, which is a system … Read more
Women Soccer Players have sued the League for paying women less than men to play professional soccer. As an American, I could care less, but since one of the “front men” for this exercise is angry-lesbian culture warrior Megan Rapinoe I feel compelled to comment.
Sea Level Rise Fraud is a thing. Regular readers will be familiar. It’s an issue the left thinks will activate “regular people” to support their mass-confiscation of their incomes. Which in the northeast, when it comes up, should always be followed with this question.
Sure thing, Democrat Prez Wannabees – there ain’t no way, no how, that you can “unite” the country. You’re all so Left you might as well be stationing yourselves off the mainland and in the Pacific. Do you really thing that just because you would be King Queen an Imperial President that those of us … Read more
Yep, that’s right. At least now. When you see the bills they are trying to pass in both Concord and DC, you know from whence they came. A Constitutional Republic depends on a number of things but most of all, adherence to The Rule of Law, Equality before the Law, the Right to Private Property, … Read more
Here’s an informative 20 second exchange regarding how the Democrats plan to govern our country.
30 seconds into it, I was already crying from laughter. THIS was a Democrat version of the WWE’s WrestleMania. Verbal fists were flying, back kicks were landing in nether regions – everyone finished with black&blues, scratches, and more than a few limping off the stage. As a Conservative, it was GLORIOUS! No, I didn’t watch it … Read more
Bernie Sanders has a plan. Most Democrats do. To convert us to a green economy. They call it that because of all the “green” they’ll need to confiscate to make it happen. Sanders’s plan will cost 16 trillion. That means it’s more like 56 Trillion, but let’s pretend.
Can anyone be more self-deluded than those who refuse to learn from history? Even when facts are right before them, they insist on denying them. Consider ANTIFA, supposedly against fascism, yet they employ the exact tactics of the Nazi SA (Brown Shirts) did in Germany.
The point of these posts on Leftardian Climate Voodoo is not to deny that the climate changes. It does. But not because of you and certainly not for them. No one bets their own money on these things it is always your money for a reason. These “experts” can’t predict a damn thing.
