I approach religion through a Jungian Social Lens, basically that much of what is said in religious texts isn't necessarily meant to be taken literally but a lot of the time is metaphor as a means of conveying a message for personal improvement and/or addressing humans instinctual needs. I'd advise ...

I never actually claimed it was socialism that ruined Venezuela, I simply claimed that it wasn't capitalism capitalism =/= corruption and additionally capitalism =/= corporatism, it seems only socialists fail to grasp the difference on that one though Also the Nordic countries are not socialist. Lik...

He pointed things out that were already patently false , ie: fake news. He's as bad as you, just less spittle laced. And you did it again, glossing over Amendments and Federal Law because it inconveniences you. And I do so love it when you do that and imply I'm a religious zealot because my conclus...

You think anybody that disagrees with you is a sycophant, a common symptom among paranoid schizophrenics, ultra partisan hacks, and sycophants funnily enough.

Think about it for a second before you start drooling over how to try and insult someone paid by the taxpayers. Maduro has deregulated everything, much like trump has been trying to do. Oil companies have absolute control You mean oil companies like PDVSA? Owned and controlled by the state? When th...

That is the tackiest piece of shit I've ever seen.

Called it Senate has uncovered no direct evidence of conspiracy between Trump campaign and Russia Senate has found ‘no direct evidence’ Trump colluded with Russia: report https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uK4-rEH8-I4&feature=youtu.be Rachel Maddow on suicide watch, what'll she do now? https://yout...

Notice the difference between these two campaign ads. The first one is a fucking meme, "I'm for good things and against bad things, buzzword, buzzword, buzzword" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ls7OSwHMoBc And the second one is actually centered around a message, a policy, stop the wastefu...

Quite frankly it's already happening that way. It's the result of corporate greed and trickle down economics, facilitated by the current dumbfuck in chief. His willingness to metaphorically suck the dicks of Russian oligarchs should be evidence enough that he's just a puppet, being used by un-elect...

I doubt Trump is savvy enough to understand this, but I think a lot of other party leadership totally does. If the Christian right checks out, the GOP has literally 0 left but some rich tycoons, a bunch of redneck racists, and *maybe* some number of irreligious pissed off white working class people...

Hey we live in a brave new world, if these wammenz can't become billionares it's their own stupid fault for not becoming men, all it takes is a quick trip to the dmv

I was more concerned about Kavanaugh being unqualified for the position, which he's wholly unqualified for. Traffic court, maybe. Even then. The main concern should be if he is going to be partisan, especially after the accusations and hearing my answer would be yes, my money's on him holding a gru...

If the Senate has their way it'll soon be illegal in the US to boycott Israel, so that'll be fun. Want to boycott any other state? that's fine. But Boycott Israel?! Off to the slammer with you!

Right? GAC never learns. "Social democracy has traditionally stood for a ‘mixed economy’, for the mitigation of the inequalities of capitalism by means of a system of progressive taxation and social benefits, for parliamentary democracy and civil liberties. [...] 'Socialist’ activities have ha...

Unless your point is to make a distinction between socialism and social democracy, then your quote actually explains that this system uses taxes on the private sector/capitalism to finance social benefits. It's to demonstrate the falseness of the conclusion that the public sector is socialist, or t...

And if this wall is so damn important, why don't Trump and co finance it with kickstarter or crowfunding. Better yet, why don't we make everyone who voter for Trump to pay that wall. Government knows who voted for Trump, so they could easily send the bill to them. It would actually even be poetic j...

Right? GAC never learns. Riiight....GAC Here you go guys, haven't read this thoroughly, but it's a socialist source drawing the delineations between a socialist and social democratic society, the latter being the mixed economies of northern Europe. Not a fan of this book but it's still got plenty o...

Darn i'm getting a strong sense of Deja Vu right now, as if this conversation has happened before...several times. Lol

Edit: Family Friendly Augustei =)

Dude, you fucking called people antisemitic for not liking A Serious Man. I mean, that's not true either, but I might as well say it and people will believe me, right? Here's the difference. One of the events actually happened, and I could find proof of in in this very group. And if not with Black ...

Why argue against the left instead of Trump? It's because of the left that we have Trump, it's well reported Trumps ground game was trash, his campaign was not well organized, his approvals weren't significantly above his opponent, his opponent got waaaaay more positive media coverage than he did, a...

They actually did that in Australia in the 70s. Governer General John Kerr dismissed the prime minister when he had a 1 vote majority, and put the opposition in power under Malcolm Fraiser (Kerr's Cur). The Labour Party and the Unions were up in arms, calling for a revolution. Buuut it never came, ...

Well, yeah, shit... If you're gonna wan to "cheat" then go right ahead The article in question. Turns out if you can't secure the majority in your own party you should just suggest the Queen should give you the win automatically because you think she should because that's "fair"...

GOP under Trump has lost 32 to 43 seats still counting Under Obama the DNC lost 64 in 2010 Under Clinton they lost 54 in 1994 Both went on to win their next elections. (Bush made gains in case you're wondering but that's likely due to 9/11 causing fear among voters which favors the incumbent) Call m...

Well timed Ginsberg. Imagine the absolute shitshow if she passes away 8 months before the election. Imagine the reaction if Trump successfully appoints someone to replace her in 2020. Welp, one of the two parties currently ruling my Godforsaken country wants to institute a commission to decide what...

One thing I will say about this election, the never Trump republicans are pretty much gone, so the Republicans are firmly Trump's party now. And anyone who thought the shitshow of political drama of the last 2 years was something are yet to see what is in store, it's going to get ugly. Some are even...

Oh yeah totes, Don Sargone will reject the mantle of leadership not twice but thrice, and after having it thrust upon his humble self and many smug chuckles he will lead the global gamergate network, revived and empowered by a trump tweet to finally save the west by crushing the evil feminazis and b...

I remember them saying something about the Jews essentially living in luxury at Auschwitz because of how clean and pest free their clothes were because of Zyclone B (The gas used to kill Jews, originally an insecticide), and how they had a tennis court and swimming pool (partially true, Auschwitz wa...

It totally depends on who they run. I can see scenarios in which he wins and scenarios in which he loses. If they run an uber progressive he will win though. If they run some likeable Joe Biden type moderate, they might win. If they run a bread and butter progressive who unites on big ticket econom...

Just found my old Jade Empire save on a USB. *Sigh*, why was there never a Jade Empire 2? They at least need to remaster that game, it was excellent

I have yet to hear about the extreme left shooting up and bombing republican conventions. Harassment at restaurants doesn't hardly count. Although this situation is exactly what the 2nd Amendment was created for, to prevent this level of tyranny and corruption. Hopefully it doesn't come to that, bu...

If I were a Nazi or carried, or was given any extremist label the thing I would absolutely want the most is for people to try to attack me, punch me in the face, for media and government to decry me, and most importantly deplatform me. Nobody knew who Richard Spencer was until he got punched in the ...

Gosh, why aren't they trying to stay in Mexico? That place rules! The people are so friendly and chill, the weather's soooooo nice and warm, and the food, omfg, totes divine. It's, like, so much better than bland, processed American "cuisine." There's this taco food truck that parks near ...

Meh. Barry shouldn't have gotten anything. Hilary deserves worse. For...What, being better than trump? Just shut the fuck up, you're basically encouraging murder. Little bitches like you are complicit in this. Better than Trump? idk about that, Trump is just ramping up all the old wars started by t...

So there's like a 4000 person group of migrants all trying to reach the US border at once, all expecting to get in... I can only assume that they expect that a group so large can basically overwhelm the system and they would all be allowed in? This shit --THIS SHIT-- is what will push Trumps immigr...

If tomorrow, another group of Yemeni civilians is butchered by Saudi Troops in the war, nobody panics, because its all part of the plan.

I don't like Warren's chances in a run tbh, She is of the progressive wing of the party so the rest of the party won't be big on supporting her, and among progressives opinions on her are pretty mixed leaning negative due to her not endorsing Bernie in 2016, the fear that she will split the Progress...

Yeah I saw Venom, it was average. Not good, not terrible. The antagonist was miscast, not intimidating at all, Venom was a cool character though imo. As for TV i've been watching The Expanse, idk how it slipped under my radar for so long, it's actually pretty good, got kind of addicted to it and wat...

I havn't been following the whole Kavanaugh thing except for seeing headlines and small bits and pieces of info. Seems there was shit flinging from all quarters, sitting on allegations, a bunch of seemingly fabrication, a rushed timetable. But as to Kavanaugh himself, I learned all i needed to know ...

Suuuure it was. You're an intellectually dishonest scumbag. This kind of shit is exactly the reason why the failed republican group, the libertarians, need to be weeded out. All you fuckfaces do is lie and bitch about taxes. You say that, but Rand Paul despite some of his wacky ideas, is one of the...

All that time rigging the primaries against Bernie and that darn electoral college got in her way. Wamp wamp

The EU is a very flawled system, but it's better than not having anything in place. I'd rather have something that offers even a remote chance for better international dialogue and trade than have every country in the continent at direct odds with each other all the time. Of course, I'll agree that...

So you want me to type up what amounts to an academic paper. Great. No but you were citing peer reviewed experts as the basis for your claims, as I mentioned earlier - the opinions of experts mean little unless its in a dissertation or peer reviewed academic source paper. So if you want to base you...

You really really really fucking need to learn your terms. We're not even a SOCIAL DEMOCRACY like the Scandinavian countries are. We're a representative Republic with a government that provides a handful of services. That isn't fucking socialist. The means of production haven't been seized. Huge tr...

Clearly you laymen know more than peer-reviewed experts on the matter.

Clearly the peer-reviewed sources disagree

Socialism never took off in the United States. It really isn't a socialist country.
