        Sure beats Marxism and Fascism

        Rich… considering it’s coming from somebody who understands neither.

          There’s a 100% chance that I know more about than you… You know since I’ve actually studied both in college. But I’m sure an armchair professor such yourself with a PhD from Lemmy’s echo chambers knows better than my professors.

            Which college was that? Prager U, maybe?

            If you did, you’d actually sound as if you knew anything about the subject matter at hand.

            But you don’t - which means you didn’t.

              Nope, a respected public University in New England.

              If you did, you’d actually sound as if you knew anything about the subject matter at hand.

              Your entire argument here boils down to “nuh-uh”, which is absolutely meaningless. If you have actual criticisms then stop beating around the bush and get on with it. Otherwise, I have no interest in whatever this is.

                a respected public University in New England.

                Oh really? A “respected public University in New England” taught you to think like a cheap Tucker Carlson knock-off?

                Do tell… does this “respected public University in New England” do refunds?

                I hope for your part they do.

                  Yeah okay professor Armchair Marxist, I’m sure everybody is wrong and fake, and you’re the only one that’s right and credible.

                    No, no, no, “expert” - I want to know more about this (supposed) “respected public University in New England” you attended that (somehow) failed to teach you the difference between Marxism and Marxist-Leninism and/or Maoism.

                    We’re talking basics here, Clyde - basics that you don’t seem to get despite your pretentions to “expertise” on the subject matter at hand.

                    I’m all ears.

          Well it’s quite simple really, you have three choices:

          Fascism: A failed murderous ideology in both theory and practice that has killed tens of million and has done nothing but bring tyranny, poverty, famine, hate, and genocide everywhere it went.

          Marxism: A failed murderous ideology in both theory and practice that has killed tens of million and has done nothing but bring tyranny, poverty, famine, hate, and genocide everywhere it went.

          Neoliberalism: A very flawed ideology that takes economic freedom to an extreme and puts too much faith in unregulated free markets.

          Sounds like a no brainer choice to me.
