Matthew Posted August 11, 2024 Report Posted August 11, 2024 What happens when you call all of your fairly moderate, centrist, opponents "communist," "socialist" and "Marxist" for decades? Especially when most normal people like the moderate, centrist liberal policies that you're labeling as such, and hate the vulgar hate and fear based politics of the right? Actual Marxist socialist ideology is pretty complicated and the average person has little comprehension as to what it is. And actual leftists have very little influence in any major party, and barely have anything resembling mass media. So I have to assume that the significant increase in American support for socialism over the last decade is due in large part to miscalculated republican messaging more than anything else. Out of a short-term desire to smear your opponent, you actually provide decades of free propoganda in support of actual leftist ideologies. 2 Quote

Nobody but the most warped, actually like Kamala. They're relieved that Brandon is out because he is an addled puppet who hardly knows who he is anymore. Kamala has stayed within her capabilities so far. But she will face Trump and we all know how that will turn out. As for Tampon Tim...he should face Vance. If and when he does, Vance will destroy him. If he refuses, that will destroy him. So you see Libbies...you're stuck in a trap of your own making. Quelle surprise.

You can deny reality all you like but, it's wildly obvious which side started this crap. 2. It will not "eradicate" Progressive Socialism. There always has been and always will be ultra-left twits. It will and is eroding this social clap-trap though. Ya see Mike...screaming and shouting down common sense worked for several years.

You said: "the right" and "republican" You are moving the goalposts to avoid the point of my question and avoid answering it. However... even though you think you will win this little game with these tactics, you are still misinformed. The Biden/Harris campaign has made calling Trump a "dictator" a central theme, and yes, Walz recently even said "fascist" Here is Walz saying it just a couple of weeks ago: Quote

Here you go again, shifting the discussion back to "republicans" in general, after you just tried to move the goalposts to the "trump campaign" so you could avoid what democrats are doing when I challenged you.
