Q: "Is Bernie a communist?"
A: "Yes!"
Q: "Why?"
A: "Because he's a communist. Checkmate, libtards."

/thread




But for real: Bernie is not a communist, he's hovering around the border separating socialism from social democracy. He definitely is FAR to the left of the American mainstream on economic issues though.

I personally like Bernie and am convinced that he means well. I even agree with a good number of his problem analyses. Unfortunately, I disagree with the majority of the solutions he proposes, and I fucking hate and distrust virtually everyone in his orbit. Therefore, I definitely wouldnt vote for him and would root for his opponent, both within the primary context and in the general election.


I agree with a lot of this.

Is he a communist. Yes or No. How would you argue with someone who disagree with your view. It's rly important for me. Could you persuade me to vote for him? Or should I simply not vote. There are no candidates who are interesting for me except Bernie,but I am not sure if he is too extreme.

because you "don't want to pay for" the black people you enslaved 200 years ago ?


My ancestors were suffering under British rule in Ireland 200 years ago. Get with the times, I'm an oppressed minority.

It's interesting to think about that 100 years ago it would have been questionable whether or not you were considered "white"

The Irish were treated worse than blacks in NYC in the 1800's. Its probably why they were always more successful. The government never coddled them.

Your ancestors never were slaves. On the other hand dishonesty, eluding the question, seems to be your major trait.

How you can open it while keep being deeply bumped by Uncle Pablo 24/7 is still a mystery. Or not.

I think he said he will complete his taxes with some VAT.
VAT on some luxury and polluting products is a good idea.
