Compared to capitalism, what has socialism and communism ever produced or manufactured?

[Thinker101]

Most every advancement in technology, medicine, agriculture, transportation, communication, construction, energy and power, etc. this world has ever seen was conceived and developed by countries that practiced a capitalist ideology. Yet many Democrats are pushing socialism, the goal of which is communism as Lenin explained.

So what groundbreaking things have socialism/communism ever contributed to this world, aside from what they stole from capitalist countries?

Poverty, starvation, mass graves and misery are the specialty of socialists. It’s what they import into every nation they get control of.

Basically everyone in the world but Republicans knows that socialists are always Democratic Fair capitalists with a good safety net these days. Check any socialists from developed countries or any Socialist Party in developed countries. Or Bernie or AOC. Brainwashed functional morons.

Check any socialists? Check em for what, mental illness?

What you ignore is that in most cases (the countries forced into communism following WWII being the exception) where communism (not socialism) arose...it was because of the FAILURE of unregulated capitalism or systems very like those (Russia)

People didn't just say "Hey let's try this".

Life sucked. Look up serfdom in Russia.

That's not a defense in the least...it's an explanation

So which has been responsible for the deliberate murders of hundreds of millions of people throughout history? Unregulated capitalism, or communism and socialism?

There is not enough money anywhere to pay for socialism

 

[danielpalos]

most of that happened during revolution or internal crises of Government.

how many people did we lose during our Civil War, under our form of Capitalism?

Economic ideologies had nothing to do with he Civil War. That was all about slavery, remember? And no socialist government came out of the Civil War, nor was one deposed.

nothing but capitalism; the socialism of eminent domain could have averted the war.

Eminent domain has always been used by the state/local governments to buy up privately-held land for wealthy developers to make a fortune off of poorer landowners, so basically it's not socialist.

In a socialistic society, there is no privately-held land, as it's already property of the government.

our form of socialism is limited by our Constitution.

An public policy constitutes an public Use.

Eminent Domain is Socialism not capitalism.

Property-owners are compensated for their property under eminent domain, which is capitalistic in nature.

Under socialism and communism, private property is not allowed. So the government just takes the property and kills the owners.

You miss the point. Government has the power to take private property for public use.

That works both ways. The government also has the power to de-socialize public land and sell it back into private use.

"The new piece of legislation would direct the interior secretary to immediately sell off an area of public land the size of Connecticut. In a press release for House Bill 621, Chaffetz, a Tea Party Republican, claimed that the 3.3m acres of national land, maintained by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), served “no purpose for taxpayers”...."

According to most Trumbots, Nazi Germany was socialist.

BTW - The U.S. missile and space programs were initially developed by German scientists as well.

Wrong moron.

According to the doctrine of nazism it was socialist.

Nazism is NATIONAL socialism communism is INTERNATIONAL socialism

Clinging to the lie that Nazism is somehow different than the Stalinism they follow is vital to the Communists. In fact, the governments of Hitler and Stalin were virtually identical, as will the the government that democrats impose on an enslaved America should they gain enough power.

They were quite different: read up on the subject.

But fast-forward today, Trump now thinks he's in germany 80 years ago.

You didn't bother to read what you cited, the Wiki article confirms what I said - you Stalinists are identical to Nazis.

Let's looks at Nazis with you democrat Stalinists?

Violent hatred of non-party members?

Concentration Camps?

Violent suppression of opposition ideas?

Use of Brown Shirt type thugs?

Oppression of religion?

Totalitarian?

Violent oppression of free speech?

Newspeak is an utterly useless Bolshevik hate rag. I don't bother with them or ThinkProgress.

by that standard, we have concentration camps in USA now also.

Say shit fer brains, how many reporters did Obama put in prison? James Rosen, chief Washington correspondent for Fox News - put in prison by Obama for reporting against him. James Risen, an investigative reporter at The New York Times.Put in prison by Obama for reporting stories that damaged the party.

Trump's war on press no match for Obama's

{“The Obama administration’s unprecedented pursuit of criminal liability against security leakers threatens to rope in the Fourth Estate,” wrote Stanford’s Jennifer Granick and Morgan Weiland for Forbes. (Weiland used to work for the far-left Media Matters.) “The message? Don’t report national security stories or you will become a target.”}

President Obama’s War on Journalists

In all, Robert Mugabe Obama put 17 reporters in prison.

Number of reporters put in prison by Richard Nixon? Zero.

Number of reporters put in prison by Donald Trump? Zero.

Oh but Trump says mean things about the little Goebbels at the NY Times (I threw a cartoon in, because that is all you can understand)

{


“Attacking the news media is a time-honored White House tactic,” says media critic Brian Stelter, but “to an unusual degree,” this administration has “narrowed its sights to one specific organization,” which it has deemed “part of the political opposition.”

Stelter quotes a top White House staffer: “We’re going to treat them the way we would treat an opponent,” she says. “We don’t need to pretend that this is the way that legitimate news organizations behave.”

Stelter didn’t write those words about President Donald Trump, and the rogue media organization isn’t Stelter’s current employer, CNN. Nor is the White House aide defending the strategy of open hostility from Sarah Huckabee Sanders or Kellyanne Conway.

Stelter wrote those words in 2009, for The New York Times, and he wrote them about President Barack Obama, who was then in the midst of furious battle with Fox News. In many ways, it was a protracted fight that presaged the one Trump is now waging against CNN and the rest of the mainstream media.}

When Obama went to war on Fox News

Look, you're a fucking liar, you're a Communist, lying is just what you do. But fact will often counter the shit you Stalinist goons vomit out.

Major failage, hillbilly. You somehow managed to leave out Presidents Adams, Polk, Lincoln, Cleveland, Wilson, FDR, JFK, and Nixon, all of whom kept the press on a short leash.

Your Russian-style Politburo propaganda bullshit is exactly what it is: Russian-style Politburo propaganda bullshit.

Obama imprisoned more reporters than all other Presidents combined. This includes Bush (3) and Lincoln (5).

Hands down

Socialism requires authoritarian dictatorship, which is why socialism is the deadliest system in modern human history. Oh yes, the Aztecs were probably worse, Babylon was very fond of mass murder as well. But for anything modern, nothing kills as many people as socialism.

And let's face is leach, that is one of the primary attractions to it for you.

In a press release for House Bill 621, Chaffetz, a Tea Party Republican, claimed that the 3.3m acres of national land, maintained by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), served “no purpose for taxpayers”...."

Republicans move to sell off 3.3m acres of national land, sparking rallies

You miss the social point of that social power.

Or to a far greater degree, Obama who you worship as a literal god....

You're projecting. That's how Republicans/Trumpers look at Trump. I do NOT see politicians that way. Ever.

BTW, most of us don't really like Trump, but we like his agenda and accomplishments.

You fuckers defend him like he was your 3 yr old child (which in many ways he is) and his agenda is no better than his personality. His accomplishments are nil.

Lol
We’ve had career politicians as president for decades and decades, What do we have to show for it... failure

What do we have to show for electing a reality TV host?

Failure

Eminent domain has always been used by the state/local governments to buy up privately-held land for wealthy developers to make a fortune off of poorer landowners, so basically it's not socialist.

In a socialistic society, there is no privately-held land, as it's already property of the government.

our form of socialism is limited by our Constitution.

An public policy constitutes an public Use.

Eminent Domain is Socialism not capitalism.

Property-owners are compensated for their property under eminent domain, which is capitalistic in nature.

Under socialism and communism, private property is not allowed. So the government just takes the property and kills the owners.

You miss the point. Government has the power to take private property for public use.

That works both ways. The government also has the power to de-socialize public land and sell it back into private use.

No I do not

It is not social power it is simply and strictly state power.
