They booed God at their national convention.
And last night they booed one of their candidates for saying communism “doesn’t work” (ya think?).
Here’s what former NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg actually said: “We’re not going to throw out capitalism. We tried that, other countries tried that. It was called communism, and it just doesn’t work.”
Moans and boos! Boo, capitalism! That was the audience.
What do they actually want? “Democratic socialism”? But what is that? A Soviet Union with Democrats in charge, probably. They want free stuff. It isn’t really free, someone has to pay for it, but they don’t know and they don’t care. It’s really an immoral mind-set. And it doesn’t create wealth, but destroys it. The Soviet Union collapsed, and Red China, while keeping the communist label, turned to fascism. Even fascism works better than communism.
As someone who grew up in the 1950s and 60s, it’s just about inconceivable to me that any political party, except the Communist Party itself, would ever consent to serve as a haven for communists.
Chalk that change up to public education.
That’s who’s responsible for Americans defending communism.
The old adage be careful what you wish for because you just might get it is true. These people have never grown up under socialism or communism, yet they somehow think the grass is greener on the other side (despite all evidence to the contrary). They have enjoyed the fruits of the free markets, while also decrying it. One day they may get what they want, but they aren’t going to like it. And the road back is going to be long and difficult. Maybe it will take that sort of pain to wake them up. We live in the best time in history, but with abundance comes apathy. People have taken it for granted, and have forgotten the hardships our forefathers went through to get it. It will be a hard lesson to learn. And unfortunately, we will also suffer because of their foolishness.
God warned Israel that someday they would “wax fat” and turn away from Him. The same thing is happening to us.
“ One day they may get what they want, but they aren’t going to like it.”
My thoughts exactly.
They don’t know what they want in one word. They conflate all the isms under the word of the day, having not experienced any but one of them – capitalism. They’re rabid cannibals biting the hands that feed them. The left is just too busy: reading their scripts, following their scripts, spewing their scripts, and spending our money. And they will tear apart anyone who interferes with them.
Socialism is based on envy and larceny. The State decides how much of the money you work for you get to keep until you are taxed at 100%, then you have Communism at last.
