Its hard to refute the origins of socialism and communism in biblical teachings:
James 5:1
Now listen, you rich people, weep and wail because of the misery that is coming on you. 2 Your wealth has rotted, and moths have eaten your clothes. 3 Your gold and silver are corroded. Their corrosion will testify against you and eat your flesh like fire. You have hoarded wealth in the last days. 4 Look! The wages you failed to pay the workers who mowed your fields are crying out against you. The cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord Almighty. 5 You have lived on earth in luxury and self-indulgence. You have fattened yourselves in the day of slaughter.
The republicans seem emboldened to piss on the constitution.
Might as well bring back this classic album if we’re just insistent on replaying the best hits of the 1870s - 1920s:
Calling him a socialist is ridiculous. In the rest of the world we would call him slightly left of center.
He is not taking control over private property. Although I would be all for that tbh.
Most Americans equate socialism with communism.
“Whose gonna pay for it” which oddly enough they are currently asking right now. Fuckin weird right?
“The people who already stole all the fucking money.” It’s so frustrating trying to get them to rub their two brain cells together.
and democratic socialism with communism
and social democracy with communism
and liberalism with communism
maybe years of red scare propaganda and complete lack of education didn’t really help them develop good political sense.
The lead paint was just icing on the cake.
Indeed, socialism is thriving amongst the US corporations and farmers. Plenty of ignorant hypocritical asswipes in the MAGA ranks.
They are weird for everything left of center. And also don’t understand basic nomenclature. At least the median us citizen.
That’s a strange way of spelling “middling”.
I don’t get your joke.
McCarthy is back on the menu!
you know if these fuckers existed prior to 1776 they’d want to “deport” the founding fathers. Hell if Jesus came back today they’d deport him too.
Red coat, red hat. What’s the difference?
I think we should start rounding up all the pieces of shit that are trying to villainize being a decent human being.
I’ve been saying it for a while. We can put them on their own little piece of land, reserved just for them, with it’s own laws and customs. Someplace out of the way - it doesn’t need to be nice or anything.
Then add we start fixing things we can finally compensate all the American people that have been fucked over the centuries - First Nations, African Americans, Japanese, Hispanics, everyone else poor…
Do you listen to anything you say 😭😭😭😭
fighting Hitler with Hitler tactics that wont backfire at all right
Hyperbole is not to be taken literally.
tone indicators plz
Escalation of the ongoing red scare?
What year is this? Cold war is over.
Yeah and Russia is their best friends, weird time
Not even our far left parties in Europe are socialist
Depends on the country. Some have communist parties, like the PCF in France or the PCE in Spain. They aren’t big though.

Chip Roy is Ted Cruz’s sycophant to be clear about the hierarchy of maga stupidity. His ignorant bigoted white supremacist hated overflows but some highlights are wanting to kill the COVID vaccine to let waiting for a natural herd immunity kill tens of millions of Americans and blamed COVID deaths on immigrants.
Deport to… ?
Flagrant display of a disregard or lack of knowledge of the basic rules and laws that define our government operation like this should carry the penalty of immediate suspension and removal. If you’re going to propose something this obviously petty and stupid, you shouldn’t be in a position of power.
Also, they need to stop using “deport.” The correct term is “exile.” Deportation refers to a foreigner being expelled from a country. Exile is the removal of a citizen from their home country. See also: Napoleon
Of all the unprecendented things happening these days, this is not one of them. This is standard issue, 100y-old Red Scare garbage. Liberalism scares tyrants, so they always try this strat, and it’s always bound to lose.
The last red scare in the US ruined countless lives before they gave up the strategy
Please, define Socialism.
USSR socialism? Spanish socialism? Social democrat? Democratic Socialism?
That’s the neat part, the definition is whatever is most convenient for them in any given moment. They’ll define the most milquetoast liberal as a socialist if they get in their way.
They called Biden a socialist, ffs
“People we don’t like”
Fuck you, Roy and the horse you rode on.
… I don’t think Chip Roy can ride a horse.
He’s an investment banker from Maryland who’s been cosplaying a Texan for his whole political life.
Decent bar, actually. Maybe just Roy.
