    It most definitely is a war of cultures. Until the culture opposing our National Heritage puts on uniforms we will only fight it "spiritually and politically".

    As I said, NATO won't attack Russia. It may well choose to thwart Russian plans to expand its influence, mostly unwanted, over its neighbors.

    Mexico doesn't like Russia, even it doesn't particularly care for the U.S.

    I don't take him seriously. However, I do confess to running a metal cup over the bars on his cage to get his attention.

    I'm not a liberal even if I do think Trump is a sociopath.

    From what I gathered the plans were to put a Nato base on Crimea, and kick the Russian navy out of Sevastopol.

    When you mention Russia, are you talking about the Russian Federation or the communist one world order called the Soviet Union? I think you're a little confused. That would be like comparing Nazi Germany with today's government in Germany.

    The only political system that can compare with the Soviet Union is the liberal one world order that the US and EU is imposing on the world today. They are using the same methods to bring it about; lies, hypocrisy, brutality -

    That is seriously one of the most stupid phrases I've ever seen or heard, and the claim that the US and EU are imposing something on the world is equally ridiculous. The only things we impose are peace, growth and prosperity.

    There's a long-term "crisis" because collective ownership doesn't work and the economy underperforms in both quantity and quality of output.

    Stalin and Lenin knew nothing about economics while Marx was an economist in name only. The one idea Marx borrowed from economists, the "labor theory of value," makes little practical sense.

    Get back to me when you see me approving of the U.S. pushing Central and South Americans around.

    LOL I would not count on the left not being arm to the teeth with special note of the neo nazis right giving us plenty of warning to clean our guns.

    Or that the left have more engineers and better engineers an it hard to fight a war when the other side control your energy systems.

    The USA is "edging" toward Civil War in the same way that the Arctic Ice cap is "edging" toward entirely melting.

    We are going to see the largest warlike displays ever seen in this recorded history shortly.
    We might not, but our children sure will.


    Make sure you have a place to go underground for a few years.

    Russia has never had communism. Unfortunately. In Russia there was a period of building socialism in the time of Stalin. But bastard Khrushchev destroyed everything that was built. After Stalin’s death, this bastard (Khrushchev) began building a nomenklatura political system, in which party leaders took the place of the oligarchs. After the removal of Khrushchev, the leadership of the USSR tried to return to building a socialist society, but failed. Because there was no such leader in the leadership of the USSR as Stalin or Lenin. There was a weak leadership. Therefore, in 1991 there was a coup d'état. After which, the same people who called themselves members of the communist party (in reality, they were not communists, but joined the party for the career growth), became oligarchs in the conditions of 100% capitalist political and economic system.
    Socialism, according to Lenin's definition, is the first, primitive stage of building a communist society, which has preserved the rudiments of capitalism, for example, money.

    I hope I answered your question.

    I won’t argue, but they don’t like gringos even more.

    You need to remove the rose-colored glasses. More recently, NATO was not going to attack Libya. And we also remember how under the false pretext of the United States, a member of NATO, treacherously attacked Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria and a number of other countries. NATO also promised not to expand to the east, and then betrayed.

    That is true. It was the Soviet Union that was communist.

    I figure a civil war would be a short fight. On the one side we have the lefts victim groups most of whom have decades of practice being 'helpless', rich donors and academics who are terrified of firearms, folk who are used to funding their schemes with other folks money, and an unlimited number of crazies. On the other we have americans.

    How long would a fight last where the left actually has to do the fighting? What will they do when the discover they themselves have to fund the effort? What happens when the existing military refuses to do the lefts dirty work?

    I think a mass exodus out of the country to somewhere else where they can sponge is more likely.

    Consider yourself safe for right now. The economy is humming and unemployment is at rock bottom. All racial sectors are doing well ( it is still a shame that after a couple hundred years we still classify everything by race). 401's and retirement accounts are in good shape and the outlook is for more gains. On the down side health care eludes many but they do get taken care of. Illegal immigration must be addressed soon or it will be the spark that could set off the brushfire.

    Personally I believe that some time in the next five years that the national debt will be the flame that causes world turmoil. Soon the debt will be so large that if nothing is done about it that the only monies that we collect will go toward Social security, Medicaid, Welfare and the interest on the debt. Which Congressmen or Senators do you know who have the courage to try and roll back any of these programs?
