@Emerald Of course right-wingers are more violent. But we only know that by keeping a scorecard.

It has everything to do with corruption, which is at the core of right-wing populism and MAGA. American democracy is insanely corrupt and MAGA is corrupting it more each day because they are corrupt truthless morons. As they corrupt democracy more each day more and more violence will happen. It could not be otherwise. There must be a cost for a monster like Trump wielding power. MAGA are such fools they don't understand that.

Watch actual Cuba:

China was a failure until it rejected Marxist economics and went with capitalist economics but kept its one party dicatorship. The economy of China is NOT what Marxists wanted nor predicted. Marxism was about eliminating free markets and private property. That did not happen because it cannot happen because that is a fantasy. What China proves is that capitalist economics works very well to make a nation rich.

But there is. If some conservative guy killed AOC, you would count that against conservatives. So don't pretend you are too enlightened to keep a scoreboard. You count acts of political violence against your political opponents as proof of their depravity and inferiority to your side. Leftists want to say that the right is more violent and dangerous than the left. Well, that requires keeping a scorecard if you want to be fair and scientific about it. How do you know the right is more dangerous than the left unless you make that an empirical matter? Who kills more humans, right or left? You can't assume the answer, you must empirically test it. So here we are.

Patajali said, Vote MAGA!

Look at how Cuba actually is, not leftist talking points: They live like dogs. They have 6hrs of electricity per day, no medicine, no eggs, black markets, everything is run down, no jobs, no future. Don't forget that communist education is an indoctrination camp. They are brainwashed from day one with communist dogma.

This is what Cuba's schools are like: Skip to 26:34

I don't know of such a book. It's hard to trust economists.

No. Cuban doctors are poor relative to other Cuban professions. You can literally earn more money as a delivery boy in Cuba than as a doctor. A Cuban doctor cannot afford to buy a single carton of eggs. There is nothing positive about Cuba's style of government. The medical system in Cuba is miserable. Healthcare should be expensive because: 1) health is worth a lot, 2) doctors invest a lot in their education and work a lot, 3) mistakes in this field are deadly and costly. Doctors who cannot afford a carton of eggs is nothing to be proud of.

Absolutely that will happen.

Good. Some progress.

So what? Those doctors live like dogs. A Cuban doctor makes less money that an Uber driver. It's pathetic. Cuba is shit. Stop making excuses for it.

What does this prove? A 50 cal anti-vehicle round?

No major conservative has called for that. You are talking about crazy extremists. And progressives call for Bush and Cheney to be punished as war crimimals, but that's not the same thing.

You watch too many Hollywood movies. Real bullets don't knock anyone back. Celebrating political violence is more than just political correctness. Imagine if AOC was killed and right-wingers were celebrating. You know that is wrong. And of course they would celebrate that, but the left is supposed to be better than that. If people were celebrating the murder of AOC you would rightly feel upset at them for being animals. You would count that against their side. So of course right-wingers feel that way.

Again, overlooking the elephant in the room. Marxism has failed in every place it was tried. You can't blame all of that on the US, although Marxists will certainly try.

@Schizophonia You're overlooking the elephant in the room: Marxism/socialism/communism is a stupid fantasy.

Cuba is a total disaster today. Watch some vidoes of vloggers visiting Cuba. That talking point about doctors is BS. Cuba has no medicine for doctors to do anything.

Kamala has no substance. She is like a cardboard cut-out politician. That's why she lost. She's not "real".

How quickly Xi would fall if his party let up on their survelience state. The CCP is certainly afraid of their people.

I am aware of his bigotry in general. Still, it is not conscious to dance on someone's grave, even if he was a bigot.

It's okay for now. I don't want to silence people until things get out of hand. This is a fresh news story so people will speculate.

Scandinavian-style social democrats. West-North EU, basically.
