Someone should tell the Armenians. The truly funny thing is this all started with him defending Marxism, and ends with him, by insisting that economics and genocide or absolutely mutually exclusive, completely denying Marxist dialectical materialism. And he's too stupid to even realize it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would grant him some - Stalin had at least three purges motivated by power and paranoia, that had no economic basis (the purge of Trotskyites et al. on his rise to power, the Great Terror, and the Doctor's Plot). But the initial list I provided was of instances that were specifically famines, demonstrably cause by Marxist economic policies. Just as Chucklehead had initially asked for. I don't know how you don't argue that collectivization, dekulakization, and the confiscation and distribution of wealth is somehow not economic. Chucklehead has actually taken the "No true socialist" fallacy one step further, in to the realm of "no true economics." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chucklehead has actually taken the "No true socialist" fallacy one step further, in to the realm of "no true economics." Agreed, but I would make the argument that, as events unfolded, and Stalin was forced to make decisions which were both cold and rational, in pursuit of his policy goals, that those outcomes were indirectly tied to his economic policy. And even in areas where they might not be tied to economic policy, they were tied to the totalitarian and centralizing nature Stalinist Communism itself, and absolutely had economic impacts.

I might make an argument against that. But it's moot at the moment. Chucklehead asked for "Marxist ECONOMIC reforms" (emphasis his) that led to starvation. I gave him examples that very precisely and inarguably fit that request. Given he can't even handle those, examples a hand removed from reforms aren't even worth discussing in the current context.

I only have 3 responses to that... Well...3.5, really. You really just don't understand the difference between "led to" and "equals," do you? Never mind the fact that genocide usually is an economic policy (see: the Heoroe, the Boers, the Holocaust, etc.) Even when it isn't, that does not preclude "economic policy leading to mass starvation." WHICH WAS ACTUALLY YOUR ORIGINAL QUESTION THAT I ANSWERED, YOU !@#$ING HALFWIT. We are not the problem here. You're the problem here. You keep changing the conversation you're having from post to post, and you're too stupid to even realize it. The holocaust was an economic policy? Idiot. You’re an idiot, and I’m soooooooo done. And yes I know, “too stupid to even realize it” and all. You and Twat Waffle Jr., keep telling me. I love it. Makes me laugh. I’m a really successful guy for somebody so stupid. Weird. And, to my face people don’t call me stupid. Weird. Its just so weird that I’m so successful but I can’t get two people who disagree with me on a message board to conclude I’m anything but an idiot. That’s so strange, isn’t it? Well, Tom, I will say it was idiotic of me spending soooo much time on that matter. I know I’m not wrong — and I know I don’t care what you think. I don’t care what the board thinks. Because despite the fact you think I’m retarded, I got nice house, I got people who call me “boss,” and I am rolling.

I lack the ability to speak truth into existence. However, I can see how you might be confused and believe that I'm a mythical and magic creature, because you're too irretrievably stupid to understand how the world works. Oh! And while I have you here: Explain: - How Stalin's desire to put down budding nationalist sentiment in the Ukraine to bring it under tighter Soviet control wasn't an economic position. - How the execution of class warfare against the Kulaks wasn't an economic position. - How the forced collectivization of farms wasn't an economic position. - How the putting down of the Ukrainian rebellion when they resisted collectivization wasn't an economic position. - How the sale of Ukrainian grain to foreign markets in pursuit of Stalin's Five Year Plan wasn't an economic position. Once you're done with that, explain how as these things failed because the people resisted, Stalin taking increasingly brutal action in pursuit of his goals was not the result of the economic policy he pursued.

LSHMEAB Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 TakeYouToTasker demonstrates a thorough, articulate(not sure if he's black) argument in favor of unfettered capitalism. I don't agree with a word of it, but it's "compelling." That being said, it's a losing proposition politically. That's precisely the reason conservative elected officials try to avoid it. They're not even touting the tax cuts because most people do not sense a direct benefit. Democrats are more than willing to slip on the banana...like every time. The Clinton campaign was the worst I've ever seen. I still don't know what she was FOR. People are selfish. They tend to vote selfishly. What's going to benefit ME? Vulture capitalism doesn't benefit the masses. Never has. Never will.

That's the entire purpose of three days of coverage: 1) Obscure Ohr's revelations. 2) Take shots at Trump while cloaked in "mourning" thus making any counter punch an "insensitive" act. Really makes one wonder whether or not Syd had any say in when/how he left this world. I'm guessing it wasn't the cancer that ultimately did him in, but the necessity by others to dominate the news cycle over a long weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSHMEAB Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 I don't know why you guys are so focused on Meghan, and not W's "bigots and swaggering despots." Probably a bit biased about W for personal reasons. You could loathe his politics, but you never questioned his manhood. Anyone who dodges an incoming shoe attack so effortlessly has my respect. Still can't figure out how an obese old man who's likely never been in a fistfight is so revered as a "tough guy." 6 hours ago, /dev/null said: Oh Hellz F*cking No!
