“Why marry a woman, make her work for someone else” indeed. Treating your wife as a slave you can rent out would definitely be a problem.

No. You fail. You were given the opportunity to read and you failed.
One person stated that we should look up the definition of socialism, and the followup was a dipshit meme that didn't define it.
You fail, sir.
You have shown yourself to be incompetent or illiterate.
I don't care which.

Hell, technically you posted this today! You were literally complaining that he “didn’t define it”. Not that he defined it inaccurately, but that he didn’t define it. Which he didn’t, and he was not asked to do.

“Socialism is a scare word [Republicans] have hurled at every advance the people have made in the last 20 years.” Is not an attempt to define socialism, a thing you understood yesterday when you complained that he didn’t provide a definition of socialism.

Your dumbass position has gone from “he was asked to provide a definition but didn’t” to “I think stuff like “Socialism is a scare word [Republicans] have hurled at every advance the people have made in the last 20 years” is meant as a definition of socialism, but is inaccurate”?

None were listed. That was literally your complaint, that Gary didn’t provide a definition (which is true, he did not, nor did he try to, nor was he asked to). Now your position is he did provide a definition, but it was wrong?

Neither of those posts imply that any definition of socialism previously provided in the thread is wrong, because no definition of socialism had been provided. Seek psychiatric help.

"Socialism is a scare word [Republicans] have hurled at every advance the people have made in the last 20 years.
Socialism is what they called public power.
Socialism is what they called social security.
Socialism is what they called farm price supports.
Socialism is what they called bank deposit insurance.
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.
When the Republican candidate inscribes the slogan 'Down With Socialism' on the banner of his 'great crusade,' that is really not what he means at all.
What he really means is, 'Down with Progress
- down with Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal,' and 'down with Harry Truman's Fair Deal.' That is what he means"

Oh, “the comment”? Here are the two posts I addressed in my post that you replied to about “the implication”. Which one of these were you claiming that “the implication” of was that the definition of socialism was wrong?

No, it was asking them to research what socialism is, and they replied with a meme of a bunch of things they think socialism is. You’re welcome to ignore the words and live in your fantasyland where they were replying to a post asking for a definition, but it won’t change the words in the post.

No, the response was a bunch of things socialism is to them. In response to a request to research what socialism is. Nobody asked for a definition, and nobody gave a definition, as I pointed out, and this upset you, and so you had a meltdown.

They could have ended this whole thing 3 months ago, claimed a victory of him being removed, and most Americans would have assumed yes, the admin won.

Brazil and Mexico are federal republics not because they call themselves that, but because that’s an accurate description of their structures. Idk why Tom’s convinced that who elects the federal government is essential to federalism but the simple reality is isn’t, that’s not what federalism means.

The real issue is I never said that we should be more like Brazil and Mexico, I just pointed out that they are also federal republics and have a national popular vote for president, because who selects the federal government leaders isn’t actually a defining feature of federalism.

There are three posts in the thread above the one where you inexplicably bitch about one of them not containing a definition. Here they all are below. Which one is your illiterate ass claiming says anything about a “definition”? Ken’s, Patricia’s, or Gary’s?
