Democrat Pseudo-intellectual: "MAGA morons don't know the difference between socialism and communism. USSR was communist, we want to be like Sweden."

No, Sweden is a capitalist country with a large (way, way too large) social safety net.

A communist country has never existed. Remember, Communism is the goal, Socialism is the means. The USSR was Socialist. Cuba is Socialist. Venezuela is Socialist. China was and still is Socialist.

The uniparty is trying to drive us to Chinese style neo-fascist socialism, NOT Sweden.

Playing the Capitalism vs Communism vs Socialism word game in the first place is a Marxist tactic. :)

  • There is no such thing as "pure socialism" or "pure capitalism".

  • Communism isn't an economic system. It's a synonym for Totalitarianism.

  • Capitalism is the only economic system that exists in a free society.

No. In communist theory, upon realization of true communism, the State will naturally evaporate. (It has never happened.)

This is why I tell people I have no issue with the principles of socialism, but rather the enforcement of it at a federal level. I'm actually fairly leftist when it comes to local politics where I have a stronger degree of representation and community is like minded so I don't have to worry about it going towards a giant welfare system. Im happy to vote in favor of using LOCAL taxes for a community greenway that I do not have the resources to build on my own. Trying to play that game at the federal/state level is impossible.

And when people have more money to go around, they are more generous with that money, giving to charities and such. That's the kind of generosity that has always existed, but will go away if the commie bastards get their way.

And if you were to ask someone, even a die-hard commie, from one of those countries during the height of the USSR, they would've told you that their country was a socialist country, not communist.

Sweden

I may be wrong, but isn't sweden super homogenous too? Like, that kinda helps, as much as people want to deny it. Generally similar people from generally similar backgrounds...

I'm not saying we should aim for segregation, but integration does introduce more dissimilarity

Yea, culturally, sloth has been looked down upon in Nordic culture, which is a big help in maintaining their social spending (abuse is kept down). The massive influx of middle eastern refugees is changing that.

there are always inter groups that can be exploited. barring racial, the socialists go after classes and gender.

They went for fostering racial disharmony in America because we lacked a rigid class structure.

Thank you. Most people don’t get this - communism is the final stage where the world is unified under this ridiculous ideology. Socialism is the “middle stage”. It makes it very interesting that globalists are suddenly cozy with communists and radical Muslims - both which have an end stage involving “world domination”
