What this modern Liberal thinks: Hillary's gonna kick conservative ass in 2016. Bitches.

P.S. Buy health insurance. Obamacare. Bitches.

[Fuctmentality]

Well you could try being honest, but you're a Republican; A member of a party that; that supports regressive taxation. that supports censorship. that opposes habeas corpus that opposes the establishment clause. that opposes the establishment clause. that supports unreasonable search and seizure that opposes education, science and critical thinking that denies reality whenever facts are inconvenient

So you resort to insults, which considering your response to jujuandjesus was expected.

[BB Conklin]

Have fun paying your fines

"Communism by [the actual] definition has never existed"

You could argue certain small primitive societies have met it, but imo communism is impossible

""absolute control by the government"

... perfectly describes Left Wing governments of the last century"

It's impossible for a totalitarian government to not have a rigid social hierarchy. By definition totalitarianism is far right.

"At what point do you stop trying this insane experiment "

You're right, trying to educate you is pointless. 

[thesaintofelsewhere]

Communism by that definition has never existed, and cannot exist. All you're saying is "That's a horse not a unicorn." In reality every totalitarian government has been left-wing. If you're saying that Mao, the Bolsheviks, the Nazis, Stalin, et al, "weren't really left-wing" because the dictionary tells you so, doesn't that mean that the premises ARE FUNDAMENTALLY FLAWED. At what point do you stop trying this insane experiment and how many people have to die.

"absolute control by the government"

Good definition - Which perfectly describes Left Wing governments of the last century.

And defines the desires of the liberals in this country.

Controlling the media, only allowing your freedom of speech if politically correct. dictating what you drive - the light bulbs you use. restricting your use of private property. The IRS targetting political enemies - attacking the media...

sound familiar ?

[Fuctmentality]

"you don't even know what Marxism is. Therefore you don't understand Socialism..."

Non sequitur much?

"You can make up your own deficnition of totalitarianism all you want....."

I'll use; absolute control by the government

[MetalDetroit]

So you admit earlier that you don't even know what Marxism is. Therefore you don't understand Socialism. If you don't understand Socialism - you don't understand Communism.

You can make up your own deficnition of totalitarianism all you want.....

But it just reveals the fact that you have zero knowledge of history.

And history proves that the most brutal regimes of the last century were Left Wing.

I have given you example after examle.

You refuse to open your eyes.

[Fuctmentality]

"All were a "people's paradise" where there was equality..."

...And thus were by definition not totalitarian. Except none of them had equality and all were totalitarian. Sorry dude but by definition totalitarian is far right, the fact that people li to get into poewer isn't news to anyone but you.

Oh and it's not that sarcasm is a foreign concept it's that pretending since orbital forcing has caused climate change nothing else can cause it is a stupid argument.

[Fuctmentality]

The fact that we are in negative orbital forcing and have gone through both positive and negative solar forcing with the temperatures continuing to climb leaving only changes in atmospheric composition as a probable cause, and the only significant changes in the atmosphere's composition have been an increase in CO2 and methane, excluding CFCs and O3 depletion which have a cooling effect, and ALL of these changes are due to human activity.

[MetalDetroit]

You are so far off base !

You are clueless !

Have you EVER studied history ?! All of the most brutal totalitarian regimes in history have been left wing.

The former Soviet Union - China - Cuba - Cambodia - N. Vietnam - Nazi Germany (a Socialist Utopia)

All were a "people's paradise" where there was equality.....

Equality in MISERY.
