[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would be perfectly happy in a police state like China. I have work ethic, I’m not sympathetic to criminals or the lazy or underachievers. So I would do well in a version of Chinese society wrought in the USA.

But I don’t think many of you would like it at all. You’d be seen as troublemakers. And we know how China deals with troublemakers. [/quote]

Then you are self identified authoritarian bootlicker with a fascist streak. You must be so proud. Fascists usually are![/quote]

I’m not a fascist, dummy, I’m a socialist/Marxist.  And I would appreciate the relative absence of petty crime and the unproductive parasite class that we are saddled with here, if we had a society and government like that which China has.

I’m a lifelong Democrat, but one of the things I absolutely loathe about our party is we put up with criminals and willfully unproductive people as two very prominent constituencies in our tent. Both groups contribute almost nothing positive to society, and they make our tolerance for them look stupid.

I don’t expect this will make any sense to you though, since you seem to believe fascism and socialism are the same. So you aren’t even intellectually equipped to post in this thread. [/quote]

DP...  So you're telling us you're having a problem coping with the basic realities of human nature.  Marxism has some great tenets on paper, but ultimately failed because it's dependent on an unrealistic utopian ideal.  Same reason libertarianism and anarchocommunism and so many other ideologies fail.  The Soviet Union, Maoist China and other nations ended up having to turn to authoritarianism to try and combat human nature and still failed anyhow.  "Try harder to bring those criminals and unproductive people in line" only made things uglier.[/quote]
