What do you feel this link provides?

[–] bloviate@lemmus.org -1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Evidence of the impracticality of what you propose.

[–] BanMeFromPosting@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

So far the only thing I have proposed is that you are wrong about your point still standing and I have supplied additional evidence to supply this. You keep trying to argue against something else because you have a weak and prideful mind, too fragile to handle being wrong.

So still answer for "how will this make a political impact in the US?" But lots of ad hominem attacks.

God damn, Reddit shitlibs really do think that "ad-hominem" is just a magic incantation to win debates they were otherwise eating shit in

Ironically your comment here is also an ad hominem attack. For the 9th time, does anyone have a practical plan for getting these political plans implemented? Please do not answer with anything but that.

Oh my fucking god, please learn what terms actually mean before regurgitating them everywhere

I have actually made 0 ad hominem so far. You are confusing "insults" with "attacking the argument through the character". Of course you wouldn't know that, halfwit that you are.

The rebuttal has been presented, you have failed to engage with it, you are the one halting discussion.

Well I would love to move on to another discussion and point out the many faulty assumptions and assertions you have made there, but to do that we have to do what I have described many times already. You seem to struggle with reason and civil discussion, consider looking inwards to deal with you having a hard time with simple challenges to your beliefs and a pattern of changing the topic instead of engaging with the text at hand, when that text refutes your pointless vibes-based anecdotal evidence.

You are making a claim but you have no proof for it. What hasn't worked "here" whereever that is? If you are talking about socialism in the east block it very clearly did work. It was massively popular, improved the living conditions for the population and only fell after decades of capitalist subversion and even then it had to be done through a military coup. And, as the evidence available shows, it is missed today.
Elsewhere it is still massively succesful to this very day.
So I dont understand your question, it seems to be based on a completely fallacious understanding of the world.
