    Rightists cannot even coherently define what socialism is, they just fearmonger about how it is “evil powerhungry monsters steal from the people and make them all starve” among other things. They can’t even explain how “socialism works in theory but not in practice” makes any logical sense.

    I find it so hilarious when conservatives and liberals argue about why socialism “doesn’t work” and they both just completely misunderstand socialism and why bad things happened under socialist rule.

    It is funny how dumb the explanations of socialism by rightists is, but at the same time it is scary how effective it is in getting so many people to passionately and even violently oppose socialism.

        Famines, executions, all the stuff we’ve all heard about, whether it is the government’s fault or not, and whether it was justified or not.

        Point is, rightists completely misunderstand why these things happen because they completely misunderstand what socialism is.
