    And I’m sorry to say 6 exemplifies this

    He butts in all the time but has nothing of any worth or substance to contribute – just repeating lines that never worked the last hundred but too unimaginative to think of anything different.

    And you always know he will not stay the course and run away later

    LOL - Again noted - you basically have nothing to contribute, you are useless to society, a hollow droid that gets fun out of posting crap you don't even have the wit to understand on internet boards.

    Do you ever wonder why, why you never really want to think about stuff or understand it, why you want to just kinda drift?

    This is what gets me there are so many right wingers out there that don’t seem to be willing to think for themselves – they seem to not even want to think for themselves – they will just repeat something from a meme factory, or repeat a slogan, or repeat what it said on some right wing website, or so on and so on.

    They don’t seem able to enter into honest debate because honest debate is hard it means thinking for themselves, thinking things through, questioning the stuff they repeat.

    A hug would be nice, I always like a hug – but do you know what would really make me happy – is if you started thinking for yourself.

    LOL yes you have to wonder if 6’s ideas are stuck in the 1910’s or 1940’s I’m going for the 1900’s.

    Sorry but do you have the evidence?

    You posted something you clearly didn’t understand anything about, for reasons you don’t really seem to understand other than that you wished to be a troll and for what reason you wanted to be a troll you are not sure – do you really think that sounds like someone that is thinking for themselves in any rational way?

    Look calm down its ok

    Yes it was a meme - that you didn’t understand anything about I get that - but why come here and metaphorically shit it on the carpet of this thread – I mean what was the point – because you’re an arsehole, why would anyone want to be an arsehole, does anyone that thinks clearly want to be an arsehole?

    Have you ever thought of not been an arsehole?

    If you've been following his posts on the Racism thread, you might wonder whether or not he's a white nationalist. That's something most of us would consider "right wing", but I think Gloomy might give you an argument.

    I’ll take your word that you are fine - although someone that wants to be an arsehole in my experience seldom is – I mean it denote a certain self-loathing.

    What is the evidence – so far all you have indicated that you only post because you want to be an arsehole, again from my experience most arseholes are very ill-informed and ignorant and that is why they are arseholes.

    Let me explain, if you don't understand, what's wrong with the meme. First of all, the centerpiece is a quotation by V.I. Lenin--the guy who invented the idea that socialism was in intermediate stage to communism. That belief is central to Leninist ideology, but it doesn't make it correct. Secondly, it has several figures appearing to agree with him--as Balbus says, trying to associate them with Lenin with no basis at all. Obama and Hillary have never called for state control of industries or transportation. Bernie thinks he's a Socialist, but is actually more of a Social Democrat. And none of them advocates Communism, the brutal, totalitarian variant of Socialism which Lenin brought to Russia. When you post a meme, you're making a statement, and its reasonable for others to hold you responsible for it. Accusing people of being Communists for shits and giggles isn't responsible.

    When people say 'I am what I am' when what they say they are is an arsehole - it makes me think that inside they are not a happy person.

    LOL - So as evidence you ‘know’ about these things are is to cut and paste something from a dictionary?

    Really that actually indicate you didn’t know about it at all until asked

    Yeah, Webster's does a good job. But you don't seem to get it.

    I don't think many socialists myself included would deny this. We do however see the limits of humanity so settle for a mixed market system. Few people want true communism. It's an idea that might work in the future but not now.

    It's the right wing who seems unable to grasp the difference. Most people who go on about "Marxist" ideas have never read his work. No one supports what the USSR was and if you ask many right wingers they say the USSR is the only possible outcome to my thinking. It's simply not true.
