Communism is a worse ideology than Nazism, or .. "at best" .. they are equal?

Bro............. I've been to China, Laos and Vietnam.. I can't wait to go back to both China and Vietnam.. I .. just can't imagine this comparison of ideologies making much sense.

China is not a communist country.

They aren't even close to pure communism. It's a hybrid if anything.

They aren't even close to pure communism. It's a hybrid if anything.

First off, there's no such thing as "pure communism" and no state in the history of the world has ever been anything close to "pure communism" even if you mean to suggest some ideal Marxist society.

But to argue that China isn't a communist country is silly. It's an oppressive state with a strictly enforced single party system, run by the Chinese Communist Party. Only outside of China could someone say China isn't a communist country. They have a controlled market economy with allowances for private enterprise; which is not in anyway antithetical to the transitional socialistic period in an idealized communist society.

So, again, politically speaking, China is an anti-democratic, "meritocracy," which is structured as a communist nation. Economically, you could argue that since the late 1980s era of decentralization they've had a mixed-economy (so did the USSR in the 1980s during Perestroika), but again, having a mixed-economy that is nonetheless a socialist economy is not contrary to communism.

Lastly, the rights and benefits of Chinese participation in that economy are not necessarily universal or easily accessible; nor is migration within the country, or travel abroad.

It is not a free society whatsoever, and that lack of freedom is primarily due to the adherence of political communist doctrine.

But it is still communism. They still control their peoples' lives, dissent is stifled, the press is controlled and only a antifa-inbred-headuponesass moron would think it is an acceptable system for anyone who values liberty, justice and freedom.

They have elements of capitalism that was introduced after Mao:

Almost like b00bie wrote this flowchart himself...

Bump?

13 confirmed fatalities.

Bump?

You literally just said yesterday that there was just the one person to blame in the attack in Charlottesville. When I said that doesn't make sense given your positions in this thread and the French Terror Attack threads, you said I somehow had you pegged wrong...

Now, only not even 24 hours later, you post this?

Do you think that's self-consistent behavior?

So does this terrorist represent Islam as a whole or nah? Chances are Isis will claim "responsibility" like they usually do but this was likely a lone wolf that acted on his own.

Why are you bumping some dipshit meme with a bunch of fantasy arguments conservatives wish were being argued.

Shit man, libs are busted for their hypocrisy here.

Oh, I love this...

Go for it bro...

Oh and BTW, you misspelled ISIS the first time, it's not spelled "Islam," but I.S.I.S."



But seriously... if you're comparing Muslims to Nazis, well, that'd be like saying White people were responsible for Nazis rallying in Charlottesville; which, would be a gross and bigoted statement.

If you wanna say ISIS is responsible for the attack, well, that may very well be true...
