Again, t***h and fact:

Sen. Bernie Sanders, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and their fellow socialists carefully omit any mention of the principles laid down by Karl Marx, the founding father of Socialism, such as the abolition of private property and the centralization of the means of production and of decision-making. But make no mistake: There are radical socialists waiting in the wings to promote these extreme initiatives.

It’s up to us to tell the t***h. Socialists promise a classless society but create the prison camps of the Gulag and the Isle of Pines. They assure peace but engage in wars of national liberation. They abolish private property but depend upon the underground economy. They stamp out religion but worship Big Brother. They bring down corrupt dictators but institute a dictatorship of the Party.

Here are some of the most telling failures of socialism:

One, socialism has never succeeded anywhere, including the Marxism-Leninism of the Soviet Union, the National Socialism of N**i Germany, the Maoism of C*******t China, the Chavez-Maduro socialism of Venezuela. It has never come close to anywhere near Marx’s ideal of a classless society.

Two, Marx has been wrong about nearly everything he predicted. The nation-state has not withered away. Capitalism didn’t break down as a result of the Industrial Revolution. Workers haven’t become revolutionaries but capitalists. The middle class hasn’t disappeared; indeed, it has expanded exponentially around the world (see the above about the sharp decline in global poverty). Marx’s attempt to use Hegel to create a “scientific socialism” has been an abject failure.

Three, socialism denies the existence of an essential human trait—human nature. Marx borrowed from the Enlightenment to declare that human nature was malleable, not constant. Christian theology with its idea of a fixed God-given nature infuriated Marx.

The socialist state established by Lenin tried for seven decades to create an entirely new human being—Soviet Man. In December 1991, Mikhail Gorbachev gave up trying and dissolved the world’s most spectacular failure in human engineering.

Four, socialism depends not upon the will of the people but on the dictatorship of the Party to remain in power. In “The God That Failed,” six famous Western intellectuals describe their journey into socialism and their exit when they encountered the gigantic gap between their vision of a socialist utopia and the totalitarian reality of the socialist state.

After visiting the Soviet Union, the French Nobel Laureate writer Andre Gide said: “I doubt where in any country in the world—not even in Hitler’s Germany—have the mind and spirit ever been less free, more bent, more terrorized and indeed vassalized than in the Soviet Union.”

What price socialism? The Chinese philosopher Lin Yutang listed the “little terrors” that prevailed in China—making children of 12 subject to capital punishment, sending women to work in underground coal mines, harassing workers during their lunchtime with threats of prison if they were late returning to work. A Soviet defector said of the perpetual surveillance: “We lived in a world swarming with invisible eyes and ears.”

Given the ignorance of so many of our fellow, especially young, Americans, telling the t***h about socialism has become an imperative. If we do not, Sanders, Ocasio-Cortez, and their fellow travelers will fill the vacuum with their misleading rhetoric. This is the t***h about socialism: It is a pseudo-religion founded in pseudo-science and enforced by political tyranny.

Lefties are evil. Hundreds of millions dead because of lefties over the past hundred years.

No worries, a leftie says we’ve got 11 Years and 10 months left. Luckily, lefties lie.

Democrats are so narcissistic that a typical response is (See all those running against the President) that it wasn't the right or smartest people running socialism. They all claim that they are so much smarter than those that failed and they will make it succeed.
And then they appeal to those who do not contribute anything to society like students with the free goodies taken from Americans and given to democrats by force and the democrats/students fall for it every time.

NRA got a great infusion of money from Russia for the Trump campaign. Maria Butiva was just sentenced to 18months in prison and she was heavy into NRA and the Republican Party with Russian sex and Russian money.

Trump at the NRA convention in his bid for "President for Life" had the NRA audience chanting and ready to take up arms to protect him from the c**p... an o*******w of his Presidency even if the numbers in 2020 did not show him as a winner. Angmo, open your eyes, take off that Russian uniform you are wearing... The far right is a threat to civilization, not just America. Trump is following the Hitler playbook and you are blindly following in goose step.
https://nypost.com/2019/04/26/trump-says-dems-tried-for-a-c**p-in-fiery-nra-speech/

Watch the movie White Heat and you will see that Trump is a Cody Jarret. Trump is cornered by the Mueller report and he may react the same way. Trump if cornered may decide to destroy the world.

Prove NRA got money from Russia.

Prove that Trump was not born in Russia. Of course, you can not... but we can not be sure. Trump claims his father was born in [Natzi] Germany. Trump likes to identify with "strongmen."

Your initial sentence betrays your ignorance. One can not disprove a negative. Such as, "you can't prove that I can't fly". It's called the null hypothesis. So you are correct when you say that I can't prove that Trump was not born in Russia. You can't prove that you were not born on the moon. I can't prove that I am not God.
