    Things can be against bourgeois liberalism while being different from each other, which refutes one being a subset of the other.

    Indeed, fascism's perspective of liberalism is that it will degrade into an even more dissolutive state, like communism.

    No it doesn't go too far because that is the natural outcome of socialism. Look at Zimbabwe. They violently took farms from the rich and distributed them to the people. They had poor production and tried to stimulate the economy by printing money and created the worst hyperinflation in history. People died because businesses collapsed. Yet president Mugabe blamed capitalism.

    Or look at current Venezuela. Inflating currency, rationed power, toilet paper shortages, food shortages. People are going to die there because of socialism. It's just how math works.

    The thing is, most of these socialists aren't malicious. They're just overwhelmingly stupid to not have learned the consequences of socialism after hundreds of examples.

    I choose to believe that most people here are savvy enough to realize that the OP is not making the argument that Sander = Hitler. The post is pointing out that Bernie's rhetoric and populism is nearly identical with the rhetoric and populism of those individuals and that the consequence of following through with their vision created the conditions for extremely catastrophic results.

    Many here would argue that Bernie's path ultimately creates an environment where those results could be repeated in the US because the ideological polarization and absolutist mindset of the population would allow for it.

    TL;DR - the US population is particularly susceptible to tolerating extremist behavior and Bernie's style of socialism could very well create the environment for it to flourish.

    Aren't both forms of Socialism just as bad? It makes me think of listening to people criticize "Trickle Down Economics" (a shorthand for a field that people that use the term never studied, and was used to, once again, justify Socialism of a seemingly modified form); they are against stealing money and giving it to big business, but then advocate for giving the stolen money to a different group of people instead of actually being against the theft.

    Jew here, that's dumb. Jews are genetically distinguishable from non-Jews, thus race. Even the word "Jew" implies descendant of the tribe of Judah. Just because the word also refers to a practitioner of the religion doesn't make the genetic description less true.

    You goys are so dense...

    You're making a stupid semantic argument. It's not a matter of "identification as a Jew" there are two things that the word means:

    1. Part of the Jewish genetic line
    2. A practitioner of the religion

    DeAristoi clearly means the first of these, and you were like...

    "Nuh uh, my special snowflake definition is the only one that matters."

    [–]WithTryingColors -3ポイント-2ポイント  (2子コメント)

    [–]cantletthatstand 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

    Actually, I think there's an abundance of evidence that races have broadly different value structures and cultures, and that some non-zero amount of those values and cultures is informed by prevailing group genetics.

    I don't think believing in observable fact makes me a racist, because ultimately I don't give a shit what the color of your skin is, I care how much you respect other people's rights, and how much you're willing to contribute to society. If you are unwilling to do either, I'm hard-pressed to see why you should be kept around on the dime of productive citizens.

    They are classified that way by Jews though; Israeli citizenship is conferred based on ancestry. They purposefully make it near impossible to migrate to Israel based on religion alone in order to keep out the Ethiopian Jews.

    I also didn't say race, I said ethnic group - which they clearly are; Ashkenazi Jews.

    I disagree. It's diet socialism, ultimately just a lesser attempt of the same thing. Also, I don't think a guy who marched with the Sandinistas is "just a Democratic socialist," thanks.

    Socialism is explicitly worker control over the means of production...

    And historically, the way that that has been accomplished has been with the state functioning as a proxy for the workers. You're just being long-winded in your "It wasn't REAL socialism!" argument. If that wasn't real socialism, then this isn't real capitalism.

    Also, please. When I invent a time machine, we'll put off the "Kill Hitler" obligation do you can go tell Lenin and Trotsky that they weren't real socialists. Then we'll come back, and I'll drive you to the hospital for your black eye.

    ...and the abolition of private property. Sanders obviously advocates for none of these.

    Of course not. You have to get elected before you can show your true colors.

    Simply:

    Fascism is not socialism in any sense.

    Venezuela is an authoritarian government that is completely undemocratic and unsocialist (no workers running their industries). But it is happening to some degree when the state is not involved.

    Sanders is a social democrat and advocates good social programs run using taxes on capitalist industry, but this is still capitalist.

    I myself do not know much about Vietnam, but I am already sure the communists will disagree with the anarchists. It seems that people here do not see that there can be different political interpretations, and that political ideologies cannot be summed up with generalizations.
