I mean obviously if socialism didn’t want a US backed coup they wouldn’t dress like that…

Wearing all that red just really gets the US going into full bloodlust.

And they wonder why we get all these migrants at our southern border. Maybe if they hadn’t destabilized the entire region to the south people wouldn’t be trying to escape those places.

It’s shocking to me that people aren’t able to connect the dots here.

Both Crowder and Shapiro have claimed this. They point out that the Nazi party was the ‘National Socialist German workers’ party’ and claim that’s enough for it to be socialist, and then also claim Russia is a communist country.

Nazi Germany wasn’t left and the USSR, which included more than Russia, was a transitional socialist country lol.

Even the DDR wasn’t doing socialism. The public had to be all-in the idea, or they were discredited or arrested. It was an authoritarian autocracy acting in the name of socialism.

That is indeed what your capitalist NGOs tell you with unlimited funds.

Consider that socialism is about control over the means of production, of deposing the capitalist system, and that your dismissal of the DDR as socialist didn’t address that at all. Do you think it’s possible you’ve been lied to?

It’d be boring here if we all agreed on everything. Disagreement is how we learn from each other. :)
