I'm leery of ambiguous language, and if you advocate for 'revolution' people usually assume you're talking about an uprising, kind of like Jan 6 but successful. "Intifada" ... if someone said that in front of me, I would ask what they mean by it. Same as 'revolution'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, there is absolutely no ambiguity to it whatsoever… when it is used to describe Palestinian fighting. The Palestinians have TWICE staged murderous “intifadas” which murdered thousands of Israeli civilians. By the same token, you could say there is ambiguity in the swastika, but not when it’s flown as a flag in the Nazi colors or worn as an armband.

What is more Marxist than that? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well ok but it seems that the first intifada wasn't violent ? I don't think the Swastika comparison is balanced. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/world/palestinians-drop-policy-of-armed-resistance/article4095331/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Swastika comparison is not equivalent but the comparison is the meaning of the word or symbol. If someone waves a Nazi flag and claims it’s merely an ancient Chinese symbol, they are lying. And if a protester screams for Palestinian intifada revolution, they are calling for a terrorism campaign, not a “resistance.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he somehow manages to steal 50% of the assets of the Ivy Leagues and other private schools, how can that possibly be enough to provide free public university education to every adult in America? It’s a bunch of BS. There’s no way those endowments are big enough for that. The TOTAL of all university endowments in the nation is a staggering $890 Billion. Even if Trump did steal half of that money, it couldn’t build and fund colleges across the nation. Not even close. The U.S. DoE spends about $80 billion a year, so this money could fund the DoE for five years. Not enough for free college for everyone. Just more Trump BS. We're not talking brick and mortar here. I believe he said it will be online education. That cuts costs drastically. And it's not "stealing". In a way it's taking back from the frauds who have been churning out wokeness disciples for the past couple of decades. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nationalist Posted March 19 Report Share Posted March 19 I have to admit, Trump has already gotten frigged with a shady university. Aye it was really a real estate course but ya...I'm a bit surprised he's brouched the idea now. He could have easily beat the democrats over the head with education and saved this treat for after the election. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is more Marxist than that? Wokeism is like Sharia Law; it spreads aggressively within a society if it isn't put down. We need to stamp out wokeness just like we would need to stamp out Sharia if it ever got too aggressive. This isn't Marxism, it's righting the ship. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See, the problem with your thinking is that you're treating wokeness as if it's a fresh idea that was brought to the table this morning. Wokeness has not only been presented, but it has permeated almost every facet of this country, and you're still crying about suppression of ideas. lol Look, Michelle, it's obvious that you are NOT a conservative. At best you're a centrist who leans more left than right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
