    Perhaps he was. Who knows? Some kids have their career goals in mind before reaching high school.

    It still doesn't change the fact that he exploited a nickname given to him to score some diversity points. That, and he tans himself to appear more hispanic.

    Jeremy Corbyn was a fan of Chavez and Venezuela.

    I'm just going off of what Danish PM Lars Løkke Rasmussen, and how he's trying to tell all the Berners over here that his country is not a socialist utopia. But what would I know? I'm not a president of a Scandinavian country. Denmark says it isn’t the socialist utopia Bernie Sanders thinks it is

    Just because you don't like the facts I've provided, that doesn't mean I haven't provided evidence.

    The problem here is that you've run into a wall, and you're trying to weasel your way out of it.

    You think that Silicone Valley is a haven for Rand-droids, and you believe Hitler was a Non-Agression-Principle abiding libertarian. This is why nobody outside your circle of followers takes a damn thing you say seriously :p

    This is a strawman too though. No one thinks Denmark is a pure socialist country. If they do they're a moron.
    Any sensible person, Bernie Sanders included, is fully aware Denmark and other similar countries are mixed economies

    I feel like this isnt the first time i've explained this to you. Ol' 6, for the love of god stop using this strawman

    The politics of Denmark take place within the framework of a parliamentary representative democracy, a constitutional monarchy and a decentralised unitary state in which the monarch of Denmark, Queen Margrethe II, is head of state.

    My point is that racists are collectivists (like you) not individualists (like me).

    We are all a minority of 1.

    Depends on the authoritarian regime. Authoritarianism usually doesn't let the market make the decisions.


    The UK is a lot like the States. Neither are strongly socialist or free market capitalist. Personally I'd call them both corporatist economies where the consumer has SOME choices in a marketplace full of weaponized regulation and price controls that allows monopolies to form.

    Not in this present day. But the freer the market, the freer the society.

    If you are scared of a free market, then you are scared of free people.
    There's 2 types of socialists. Keynsians and Marxists. And they both have it wrong.

    I unfollow everyone on Facebook that posts anything political. I'm not sure if that's a form of blacklisting or not.

    Who knows??? If nobody knows, it's a matter of judgment. I find it hard to believe that he was that precocious--not only with his career goals in mind at age 14, but cynically plotting strategies base in identity politics back in the 1980s, before Hispanic was cool. You made the charge. It's yours to prove. And it isn't a "fact" that he exploited the nickname to score diversity points. It's an accusation.
    FACT CHECK: Beto O'Rourke's 'Reality Check'

    Not surprising, but irrelevant. To my knowledge, Jeremy Corbyn hasn't been posting here, nor is he somebody whose judgment I trust., although admittedly he's a Socialist. So what's your point?
    I agree with Løkke Rasmussen that the Scandanavian Social Democracies have mixed economies. I think Bernie is confused in thinking he's a socialist. I didn't think the point was in dispute.

    I can't believe you're serving up World War II Allied propaganda cartoons to try to persuade us that Hitler and Stalin were both "Socialist" and two peas in a pod. They were both totalitarian regimes but quite different and their early alliance was one purely of convenience. The differences between their systems and the inappropriateness of characterizing them as similarly "Socialist" has been amply explained, and your retorts fall short of responding. After Hitler turned against Stalin, Stalin's USSR was one of the Allied powers--good ol' "Uncle Joe". Would you argue on that basis that Communism and capitalism are really the same?

    Your virulent anti-Muslim propaganda, nativism, and trumpeting of the superiority of western civilization reeks of bigotry and chauvinism. I'd call it "tribalism", not individualism.

    Anybody who thinks Keynesian economics is a form of socialism must have flunked Econ. 101 or is a raving libertarian ideologue. In either case, such person has nothing intelligent to say to us.

    You really do just hate anyone that doesn’t have the same views as you and the hatred so blinds you thinking that you post insane statements like this.

    The problem is that in the fever of your hate you have come to believe such things.

    What ‘facts’ are you talking about, you seem to think that there is a huge left wing conspiracy to silence all of the right and the examples you have given so far are nutty alt-righters and nationalists, which you seem to support and call ‘saints’.

    Can you please wipe the hate from your eyes, stand back and think about the things you post.

    And this is one of the problems you have that we have discussed before – you read what you think is in the posts not what actually is said in the posts.

    Your utter contempt and hatred of the ideas and the people that say them seems to distort what you understand to be said.

    But I’m beginning to realise that you don’t really care about reality, you seem to be driven by the hatred of anyone that doesn’t hold the same views are you.

    So in your eyes someone that has differing views than you must be little Hitler’s and socialist scum that want to impose collectivism and take away others liberty and individualism.

    That coupled with you black or white mindset seems to mean that there can be no middle ground, if people are not like you then they are against you, so anything that doesn’t support your ideas is just another part of some left wing conspiracy.

    And this leads you to statements like this -

    This is pure and simple hatred of the people that have differing views to you, you are good and have good ideas others have evil ideas and must be evil racist, collectivist scum.

    Actually if you look at the history of Latin American ‘economic liberalisation’ and ‘free market’ ideas they seem to have been much more easily imposed on populations that were under authoritarian regimes.

    This is not really surprising as these ‘free market’ policies as has been pointed always advantage the few (the ones in the regimes) not the population as a whole.

    Which leads on to -

    Ok can you name a totally ‘free market’ state?

    LOL - Can you name one in any day?

    The thing is that there never has been a ‘free market’ and the never could be a ‘free market’

    And you statement would also depend on how do you define what is a ‘free’ society.

    The great period of laissez faire economic thinking in the 19th and early 20th century was a period in which many if not most people didn’t have a vote, and was a period of imperialism, the factory system, slums, and great suffering for the majority of the populations of Europe and the US, where it was mainly followed.

    And in many other places ‘free market’ laissez faire economic thinking was imposed on people by authoritarian imperialist regimes.

    It seems to me that ‘free market’ ideology is fundamentally flawed because it is so often based on potty Social Darwinist thinking. The kind of social Darwinist thinking you seem to hold on to but seem unable to defend from criticism.

    Sorry mate but the more you post these days the more you show how ill-informed and blinkered are you views and how obviously they are fuelled by grievance and hate.

    I honestly don’t think this is good for your health and wellbeing.

    You have just given up even pretending to address the many outstanding criticisms of your views and instead just seem to be posting attacks on the 'socialist scum' you so clearly and blindly hate.

    A hate that seems all the more intense because of your utter failure to address all those outstanding criticism.

    Rather than get angry with us for your own failures why not try and work out why those failures are happening.

    Anyway I hope you have a great Christmas (oh sorry as socialist scum i have to be politically correct and say Winter Festival LOL).

    You're missing the point. I brought up O'Rourke and other white people who tried to masquerade themselves as non-white to get themselves further ahead in life by scoring diversity points. If white privilige was a real thing, why does he need to become Brown Man Beto, and not stay as White Man Robert? I'll bet there plenty of Texans of Irish heritage he could've scored points with, right?

    Corbyn is the leader of the Labor Party, that's why its totally relevant. He'd turn the UK into an economic hell hole like Venezuela if we gave him the keys to the ignition.

    That all took place after 1941 when Soviet Union became an Allie. They had to become one right after Hitler broke the Molotov Ribbentrop agreement in 1939 with Stalin. I already explained this to you.

    How about the M.A.P. (minor attracted person) communities and users that have been forming accounts online. Promoting pedophilia to the point that they want to add the letter P to LGBT for "pedosexual."

    Twitter Censors Conservatives, But Won’t Ban Pedophiles.

    But no, conservatives and people who disagree with the globalist status quo are far worse than pedophiles, ain't that right?

    In reply to the original question, the answer is NO,
    Mainly because rather than supporting them, I have difficulty in deciding who is worst among our political parties here in the UK.

    You made the claim that O'Rourke at the age of 14 became "Brown Man Beto" as a masquerade to "score points" and get himself ahead in life. No evidence, just an accusation. You have yet to provide any evidence besides your biased impressions. Does the same go for any white person who uses a tanning bed?

    I agree he's irrelevant, but you brought him up. I find it highly unlikely that if he took power he'd "turn the UK into an economic hell hole like Venezuela" because the U.K. isn't a Third World country. They tried nationalization of industries back in the early fifties under Atlee and it didn't go over. Which is why your concern about socialism outside the Third World is a bugbear.

    Yes, yes you did. So your cartoons and the fact that Hitler and Stalin were allies before that proves nothing, other than the fact they were both opportunists.

    Are you suggesting a link between progressives and pedophiles? Apparently it's the judgment of the folks who run these sites that the pedophiles aren't guilty of the disinformation abuses that the right wingers (don't call them "conservatives") are: e.g., telling people that the bereaved parents of the Sandy Hook massacre were actors. Or circulating the Pizzagate rumor. Or those "conservatives" from Vladivostock, Noginsk, and Khomsk who spread disinformation to stir shit in the USA. What The Russian Indictments Say About The Power Of Social Media
    Speaking of pedophiles, wasn't it Milo who fueled Gamergate that the AltRight-AltLite folks pounced on as their royal road to power?
    Donald Trump and Steve Bannon need angry young men. They’re using Gamergate culture to get them
    Steve Bannon learned to harness troll army from 'World of Warcraft'
    What Gamergate should have taught us about the 'alt-right'

    Is that why you're upset?

    You really like using the H-word don't you. Your ad-hominems have no impact on me.


    Ok, how about Roger Stone who got banned for "attacking journalists" and "using foul language"

    Roger Stone Banned From Twitter For Attacking CNN

    Meanwhile, a leftwing darling like Keith Olberman gets to keep his account for doing similar:

    [​IMG]


    I don't hate people who hold different opinions from my own. I think there are two types of leftists (not liberals because calling you that would be too generous) in the world.
    A) Ones who naively believe that the government has their best interests in mind. These leftists are the good ones. They have good intentions; their hearts are big but their brains are small.
    B) Ones who realize that these policies are a ways and means of controlling populations for a diabolical cause, and support such causes because it benefits them in some way. Type B leftists are often the politicians and the global corporate elite. They are pure evil, and I'm beginning to see you as a type B. Left wing parties are nothing more than rich people telling poor people that the reason they are poor is because of rich people.

    You mightn't have said that in your own words that Hitler was a non-aggression principle abiding libertarian, but I've read enough of your posts to know that you imply it when you post articles about how Nazis remind you of libertarians.

    Awww what's the matter? Don't like being compared to a Nazi or a white supremacist? Call the Whaaambulance. I put up with shit like that from you and your disciples quite regularly.

    This is a good reason why I'm very much in favor of eliminating the left/right paradigm, and replacing it with the collectivist/individualist paradigm. Too often what is left and right is very subjective. So if we had to go with a linear political spectrum, this is what it should look like:

    Not for certainty that there's a solid link between progressives and pedos. But why won't Twitter censor and regulate these M.A.P. accounts the same way they censor and regulate conservatives? Why is the mainstream media promoting the recent craze in drag queen children like "Desmond Is Amazing" with his appearance on Good Morning America? Desmond is a 10 year old drag queen who's been dancing in skeezy bars to have grown men throw dollar bills at him.

    Salon once published an article defending pedophilia when they featured Todd Nickerson. The article has been erased from their site since the publicity nightmare they rightfully received
