Socialism: Combat artificial intelligence with artificial stupidity.

I appreciate the defense. 🙂 Willard believes Trump, personally, owns the Qatari plane; he is therefore not in a position to criticize other people on facts. There are people on the left and the right who are looking closely at whether the Trump sons have needed Dad’s actions to make their business deals happen, but so far there is no evidence of corruption. Some people, apparently including Willard, think that making money on business deals is inherently corrupt.

Willard,

If you’re going to attack Kate, at least reference the comment that she made. I doubt it’s the spelling comment. What a maroon, to quote Bugs Bunny.

Neo, Xylourgos, and Kate – thanks for your replies.

Willard – thanks for the laugh!

Willard, another “concerned” conservative?

Kate: If you believe that, you’ll believe anything.

TommyJay: I thought Joe Biden and Hunter were repulsive. That’s one of the reasons I voted for Trump. But cronyism and corruption are not the way to build a durable conservative movement.

I read or listen to these young Socialist bucks and buckees and I wonder, how did they get there?
I went to High School in the 70’s, College in the 80’s and I don’t remember any of my peers saying “Socialism would be a great solution”. I guess it sounds good on paper.

Well the French intellectuals have a lot of 20th century third word blood on their hands, from the education of Chinese communists (Chou Enlai, Deng, Xi, but not Mao, he couldn’t get the language), Pol Pot, the first Ayotolla of Iran.

And then all the postmodernist bilge inflicted on the first world. Quite the legacy.

I will post corrections to typos on the main post, because Neo is so careful and will correct it. It’s rather pointless to bother about it with commenters unless the meaning is unclear, in which case asking for clarification is reasonable. If I understood the comment, why bother proofreading?

This push toward a much more radical socialism is partly "the consequence of indoctrination by education for 60-70 years." Cicero The increasing secularization of Western societies with its concurrent decline in religious belief is the other major factor. No creator, no objective truth, leaves only the subjective 'truth' of the individual's "lived experience" and the easily sold moral obligation to leave the world 'a better place'.
