If liberals hate capitalism so much, they should move to a socialist, communist or whatever country

Liberals always seem to praise ideologies like socialism or communism, and hate America's capitalist system. They seem to praise the Nordic countries "socialism" (even though they aren't technically "socialist"), so if they love Scandinavia's "socialist" model, what is stopping you from moving there? Or if you want actual socialism, go to Venezuela or Brazil. Or if you want a somewhat communist country, go to China or Cuba. Or go to any country that I am not naming that has these systems that you praise. We enjoy our capitalism, so don't take that from us. There's nothing stopping you from going somewhere else.

If conservatives love authoritarianism and fascism so much, they should move to fascist authoritative states. There's nothing stopping you, I'd suggest China or North Korea. They should just GTFO if all they want is government domination over the rights and liberties of the People.

Care to explain what fascism is then? You haven't a clue what fascism is. You guys like to claim that Hitler was a fascist (which he was), but how come the full word for Nazi means "National SOCIALIST German WORKER'S PARTY? Last I checked, socialism is on the far left. And considering the left loves censorship, like shutting down conservative speakers on college campuses, that the ultimate definition of fascism.

If they would leave, I would wave my hankie either at the boat dock or at the airport. It would be a huge improvement for the country.

You make the mistake of not wanting to admit we’re already a fascist authoritative state.

May I also add that North Korea and China are COMMUNIST, so that's your ideal actually.

And yet, every time you lefties claim something is "fascist", you are NEVER specific. The only good lefty is a left-hander.

Yeah, criticism of Trump® should be a felony, it's seditious by people who HATE America, right? I mean he is the #1 American, and it is 'murica first right? It NEEDS to be a crime to not praise him. Or at least if you aren't willing to praise him remain silent! Stupid libturds! :elephantf :soap :elephantf :stooges :gunsmilie

You guys like to claim that Kim Jong-un is a communist (which he is), but how come the full name of North Korea is "Democratic People's REPUBLIC of Korea"? Last I checked, you believe republicanism (lower-case R) is on the right. And considering the right loves censorship, like shutting down scientific experts on the coronavirus, that's the ultimate definition of communism.

See? I can play stupid word games, too. :)

I never said that criticism of a president should even be a misdemeanor, but simply saying that lefties love systems like socialism and communism so much that they should move to one of those countries if they love them so much. And no, you are not a libertarian.

Yes, Nazi had "Socislism" on it. Are you also under the impression that the German Demicratic Republic was Democratic?

Democrats don't hate capitalism. So your whole premise is garbage anyway. I know what Hannity says, but learn how to think critically.

A simple explanation of communism is that there is NO PRIVATE PROPERTY NOR FREE SPEECH. Every item is a government collective ownership. No rights whatsoever. As far as "shutting down" those talking about COVID from the speakers you are talking about, NO ONE is even remotely trying to stop them, but we want scientists who support our side be allowed to speak as well, which your side is trying to prevent.

Social democracy and socialism are very different things. I know nuance escapes you, but the facrt remains....

OK, now prove to us that Joe Biden is bringing socialism to America, should be piece of cake, no?:lamo

I don't believe in democracies, except "liberal democracies", which is "republicanism". Learn the difference between "democracy" and "republic". And before you say that "liberal democracy" is a "democracy" because it has the word "democracy" in it, "crony capitalism" and "state-run capitalism" aren't actually capitalism.

Are you ready to retract your failed attempt to link Nazism (which you condone) to socialism (which makes you froth at the mouth)? :)

Read my comment above, I don't believe in "democracy". I believe in "republicanism".
