    Otherwise known as actually knowing what words mean.


    Only Marxists see it as a transition. Socialists don't. And, yes, it has everything to do with the means of production. Your assumption that all socialists are Marxists is completely divorced from reality.

    Again, both socialism and communism have huge faults that you can actually start addressing once you approach them with intellectual honesty instead of just using them as a lazy swipe at Dems.

    No, socialism is not communism.

    No, in general it is defined as the people owning the means of production.

    Cool story. Now try checking out the definitions.

    And as a result was the first one on this thread to correct the record that she was 10, not 7.

    I haven't even claimed that Trump is a racist and my education on this subject was around far, far before Trump even announced he was running.

    No, it doesn't bother them at all, they rationalize political violence.

    I went to college in Charlottesville, lived there for 5 years and commuted from a job in Lynchburg, VA to grad school for 5 more. There was never a reason to go to downtown over 10 years. Not ever.

    So a radical professor at the school becomes mayor and decides to incite a riot by emulating ISIS by destroying a historical artifact. I believe the protesters had a permit. Antifa terrorists, without a permit, went downtown to start a fight with protesters. Some protesters were radical, but some were just history buffs who would have protested ISIS's destruction of Christian artifacts with equal fervor.

    Trump was right. There were good people on both sides. I'm thinking fewer among the antifa terrorists because they were there as the thought police to attack people whose ideas they didn't think should be allowed.

    Yeah, we hear all kinds of slogans being repeated at Lefty protests. And "We go where they go" by antifa. Or how about that hope and change motto?
    OMG, are you still denying the existence of the caravans? 10-12 people, you really are out of touch with reality. These numbers are just a wee bit higher.

    All Left wing projection. You project your hate onto others and claim to be able to read their minds and know their intentions. Here is the one scapegoat you repeat on a daily basis, the evil White man who you blame for all of mankind's ills.

    The signs are the communists are taking over, the Left are using the same tactics as Marx, Lenin, Stalin, and Alinsky. It just hasn't gotten to the mass murder stage just yet.

    Silly dodges that have nothing to do with the conversation are always better in image form, I guess.

    Omar has been ridiculed for what she says, not because of her skin color. Only fools think otherwise.

    Funny how the left melts down and screams fascism, using free speech rights, when they are called out on their anti-American and anti-Semitic stands.

    I first took note of it when Trump started asking people at his rallies to “take the pledge” at his rallies in 2016.

    He wasn’t talking about a pledge of allegiance to the United States.

    He was asking for a pledge of allegiance to Donald J Trump.

    Emulate ISIS? Ah, who can forget ISIS peacefully relocating, not destroying, a "historical" statue from . . . 1924. Ah, yes, 1924. The heyday of the Confederacy.

    Please don't appeal to ISIS to try to paint an ugly picture of people you disagree with. It cheapens actual atrocities.

    Sure..............

    We’re looking at video of an all white mob chanting “send her home” to the obvious delight of the man who incited them with his tweets and vulgarity.

    Not one in ten people in that crowd could tell you “her” name or even tell you what position she holds.

    And all four were obviously chosen because of the color of their skin, their names or their dress.

    It was blatant, obvious race baiting of the George Wallace Strom Thurmond sort.

    And the audience went wild.

    No, but having corporations control every aspect of government operations is.

    Removing a statue from public land and selling it to a private owner isn't destroying history. Conservatives who complain about these actions "destroying history" have absolutely no idea what they are talking about. Now how about actually treating ISIS as a serious thing and not a pathetic political football?

    LOL, must be why there have been so many attempts to pull down statues and destroy them but hey, if you have a lefty democrat remove one (same thing) it's somehow different.

    Ya, you saved my the thumb pain on that.

    500 nutjobs were treated like it was 100k taking over a city.

    Not that I'm suggesting a counter protest is wrong, but that's what escalates things.

    Ignoring them would have been better.

    This is left wing media fodder. The left NEEDS racism or they become irrelevant.

    Intolerance is intolerance. There is little difference in that regard between the intolerance displayed by ISIS for the Christianity and and artifacts that mark its history and the intolerance displayed by the socialist mayor of Charlottesville and his Antifa terrorist followers.

    Robert E. Lee was a Virginian first and foremost. If Virginia had gone with the Union, he likely would have fought for the Union Army. There was no reason to incite riots over a statue. If the socialist thought police really cared about historical statues, they would remove the Democrat Robert Byrd statue from the Capitol Building and rename the Senate office building for someone other than Democrat Richard Russell.

    The fact is that Democrats don't care about anything but keeping their minority underclass as an underclass. They have nothing to sell the growing number of productive Americans.

    Exactly. They are panicked and they have no bullets. This morning CBSN had to use a Democrat Governor, their segregationist governor, George Wallace, to attack Trump. It was hysterical.
