Would rather live under socialism. Some would even rather live under communism.

    "This year’s centennial anniversary of the Bolshevik Revolution has caused many to reflect on communism’s place in our collective memory. It has been a full century since Vladimir Lenin’s Bolsheviks seized power in Petrograd and communism made its bloody debut on the world stage. Authors, activists, and politicians alike are asking the question: what has America learned from one hundred years of communism?

    The answer? Apparently, not much."

    This is a straw man argument by the way.

    Half of these retards didn't know who Mao Zedong was when polled. Now more than ever, teach your little shits the value of the American way of life and give them a basic understanding of world history, or GTFO. You and them.

    The rich were effectively taxed at what, 75%, 80% 50 years ago? That's closer to socialism. We didn't have 20 trillion in debt then either. Millennials are fags but they have a point when they're saddled with $80,000 of student debt and see the American dream isn't close to what it was

    Millennial don't have the baggage you do when it comes to capitalism/socialism/communism. You bought into the government propaganda of capitalism = good, socialism and communism = evil. When they're really they're just economic systems. There is no good or evil.

    Human beings when presented with an argument that they disagree with will fall to the other extreme if the side they disagree with is unwilling to budge. Capitalism is the best economic system anyone has come up with but it's not perfect. Where and when it fails we should be willing to use other methods. Instead you cling desperately to capitalism. Pushing millennials to the other side.

    "Communism isn't evil." Tell that to the victims. Joseph Stalin killed millions. Mao Zedong killed millions. Pol Pot killed millions. Kim Jong IL killed millions. But there is no good and evil according to you. Cool. Explain these guys and Hitler then.

    As someone who is currently in school, millenials are not taught that communism the ideal is evil, simply that evil people used it as a position of power to do harm because they wished.

    Make of that what you will.

    Communism doesn't kill people. People kill people.

    If someone supports communism, they should be deported to Venezuela to get a first hand look at exactly what it is and how it works.

    As somebody who has taught both political theory and comparative politics at the university level, I always find these threads to be an absolute hoot.
