What Makes Socialism So Attractive?

Just don't tell the race is fair if some get to start the race at the finish line.


Where is it written that everything in life must be "fair"? all that is guaranteed is an equal opportunity to succeed. Yes, the road is much harder for some than others, Ask Ben Carson about coming from nothing to being very successful. Or you could ask Earth Kitt, conceived by rape, forced to live in the crawl space with the dogs, shunned by her family, but worked hard and achieved much success and fame.

Equal opportunity does not mean equal results.
Agreed, equal opportunity does not mean equal results. I also agree that "fair" means an equal opportunity to succeed. You can throw out plenty of people anecdotes but there are many more of people that fail due conditions beyond their control.
name one
My friend John. He got sick as a child and had to have major surgery which it turned out he didn't need. He missed a year of school and never caught up.
I'm not sure what you're trying to say here. are you saying he had his brain removed?
For every Ben Carson or Eartha Kitt there are probably 100 like my friend John. Children whose health, family issues, or poverty impeded their success.

That is but an excuse. I had major surgery at age seven. my parents were poor. I make six figures today, have for more than ten years. I went to a trade school Devry, started at 4:40 an hour in 1977. I've been with this company in March 43 years. You're making excuses.
 
America was built upon more Socialist principles than Capitalistic ones. Everyone pay taxes, pooling a portion of their income, to build and maintain infrastructure, military, economy. The country was built upon that. Cooperative society compared to individualism. So all this Conservative railing about Socialism bad bad bad is ridiculous and just ignorant.





Especially to the young?

Why are the young so enamored with Socialism/Communism/Liberalism?
It may not be what seems to be the answer, free stuff.

The Answer may be something inherent to the human condition: a desire to be unique, and independent, and to make your own rules, and not have to answer to anyone else.



1.When Albert Camus wrote “The Rebel,” he put his finger on an aspect of human nature that most of us have, more so as youth, but, still, throughout our lives. We yearn to stand out, to be different, …we see it when the prettiest girl runs off with the ‘bad boy,’ or when the wild haired radical is the one everyone is talking about. True, family, and the desire for success often smooths the edges off, moderates how ‘different’ one chooses to be, and sometimes, later on, when we’ve given up most of that rebellion, we might come to resent those who actually carry it off…..but in our youth, we have it.

It’s all about the degree and desire to rebel.

2. Freud claimed he could document and explain that need to rebel, relating it to a biological phenomenon…. “The Rebel Instinct: How Each Generation's Need To Out-Rebel The Previous Generation Is Pushing Society To Wild Extremes” The Rebel Instinct: How Each Generation's Need To Out-Rebel The Previous Generation Is Pushing Society To Wild Extremes

But whether it is psychological or biological…….it appears, most significantly, to be political.




3. A tip of the hat to Freud: there is no disputing the desire to stop taking orders from parents. OK. But it grows, in many, to the desire to not have to show respect, take orders from, or to mirror the style and tradition of an older, more successful generation. Perhaps the claim that socialists/communists are all about greed, to take from the successful without the work that went into that success...’You didn’t build that!’ …isn’t just to get the material things…


........it’s the psychological reward of rebellion.


"America was built upon more Socialist principles than Capitalistic ones. "

What a stupid post.


So you're a government school grad?

Know what that means?


And then, there's this:


When Albert Einstein died, he met three New Zealanders in the queue outside the Pearly Gates. To pass the time, he asked what were their IQs. The first replied 190. "Wonderful," exclaimed Einstein. "We can discuss the contribution made by Ernest Rutherford to atomic physics and my theory of general relativity". The second answered 150. "Good," said Einstein. "I look forward to discussing the role of New Zealand's nuclear-free legislation in the quest for world peace". The third New Zealander mumbled 50. Einstein paused, and then asked, "So what is your forecast for the budget deficit next year?" —The Economist, June 13th 1992, p. 71).

name one
My friend John. He got sick as a child and had to have major surgery which it turned out he didn't need. He missed a year of school and never caught up.
I'm not sure what you're trying to say here. are you saying he had his brain removed?
For every Ben Carson or Eartha Kitt there are probably 100 like my friend John. Children whose health, family issues, or poverty impeded their success.
That is but an excuse. I had major surgery at age seven. my parents were poor. I make six figures today, have for more than ten years. I went to a trade school Devry, started at 4:40 an hour in 1977. I've been with this company in March 43 years. You're making excuses.
those were the good old days when the Democrats were basically in control, before 35 years of Reagan tax rate giveaway to the rich and screwjob for everyone else. I suppose you believe people just got lazy and stupid, the GOP way...

Just don't tell the race is fair if some get to start the race at the finish line.


Where is it written that everything in life must be "fair"? all that is guaranteed is an equal opportunity to succeed. Yes, the road is much harder for some than others, Ask Ben Carson about coming from nothing to being very successful. Or you could ask Earth Kitt, conceived by rape, forced to live in the crawl space with the dogs, shunned by her family, but worked hard and achieved much success and fame.

91." Appointing conservative judges is the one objective that unites the Republican Party. It is one of the few things the Senate can do without the House.

And it is something that immediately impacts public policy because, during times of divided government, many political fights end up being resolved judicially.

Trump may not have the “best people” representing him or running his White House, but he’s picking them to be judges. Indeed, “based solely on objective legal credentials,” left-leaning Vox’s Ian Millhiser says, “the average Trump appointee has a far more impressive résumé than any past president’s nominees.”
Approximately 40 percent of Trump’s appellate nominees clerked for a Supreme Court justice, and about 80 percent clerked on a federal court of appeals. That compares to less than a quarter of Obama’s nominees who clerked on the Supreme Court, and less than half with a federal appellate clerkship."

Where is it written that everything in life must be "fair"? all that is guaranteed is an equal opportunity to succeed. Yes, the road is much harder for some than others, Ask Ben Carson about coming from nothing to being very successful. Or you could ask Earth Kitt, conceived by rape, forced to live in the crawl space with the dogs, shunned by her family, but worked hard and achieved much success and fame.

Equal opportunity does not mean equal results.
yea...

Especially to the young?

Why are the young so enamored with Socialism/Communism/Liberalism?
It may not be what seems to be the answer, free stuff.

The Answer may be something inherent to the human condition: a desire to be unique, and independent, and to make your own rules, and not have to answer to anyone else.
You may be overcomplicating and overanalyzing the phenomenon. Many young people are rebels without a clue due to hormones and inexperience, granted. But there is something you may be overlooking.

A lot of these kids have been exposed to cult-like education since they were kindergartners. American education is so tethered to government today that educators are de facto agents of the government that have the ears of children.

If educators belong to public sector unions they are essentially government employees dependent on government both local and federal. It is to their benefit to indoctrinate children in a captive audience setting to look to government to solve problems as opposed to relying on their own abilities and mental resources.

This has been going on since about 1965 and many of the kids are fractured by the Great Society, living in single parent homes where the father is gone.

They see socialism as an extension of the cult and the next logical step to getting back at the world that education has taught them is the source of their misery.



1.When Albert Camus wrote “The Rebel,” he put his finger on an aspect of human nature that most of us have, more so as youth, but, still, throughout our lives. We yearn to stand out, to be different, …we see it when the prettiest girl runs off with the ‘bad boy,’ or when the wild haired radical is the one everyone is talking about. True, family, and the desire for success often smooths the edges off, moderates how ‘different’ one chooses to be, and sometimes, later on, when we’ve given up most of that rebellion, we might come to resent those who actually carry it off…..but in our youth, we have it.

It’s all about the degree and desire to rebel.

2. Freud claimed he could document and explain that need to rebel, relating it to a biological phenomenon…. “The Rebel Instinct: How Each Generation's Need To Out-Rebel The Previous Generation Is Pushing Society To Wild Extremes” The Rebel Instinct: How Each Generation's Need To Out-Rebel The Previous Generation Is Pushing Society To Wild Extremes

But whether it is psychological or biological…….it appears, most significantly, to be political.




3. A tip of the hat to Freud: there is no disputing the desire to stop taking orders from parents. OK. But it grows, in many, to the desire to not have to show respect, take orders from, or to mirror the style and tradition of an older, more successful generation. Perhaps the claim that socialists/communists are all about greed, to take from the successful without the work that went into that success...’You didn’t build that!’ …isn’t just to get the material things…


........it’s the psychological reward of rebellion.


Perhaps the rebel wants to gain that success by a different path, one that doesn’t require looking like, sounding like, and behaving like, our elders, that explains the 50% of Democrats who are socialists. Enter Bernie Sanders, stage Left.




Now…..get this, the fly in their ointment:

The problem for those rebels is that they have given up the intellect and the education that reveals what Socialism, Communism, Progressivism produces for societies, always:

....serfs, slaves….or corpses.

My friend John. He got sick as a child and had to have major surgery which it turned out he didn't need. He missed a year of school and never caught up.
I'm not sure what you're trying to say here. are you saying he had his brain removed?
For every Ben Carson or Eartha Kitt there are probably 100 like my friend John. Children whose health, family issues, or poverty impeded their success.
That is but an excuse. I had major surgery at age seven. my parents were poor. I make six figures today, have for more than ten years. I went to a trade school Devry, started at 4:40 an hour in 1977. I've been with this company in March 43 years. You're making excuses.
those were the good old days when the Democrats were basically in control, before 35 years of Reagan tax rate giveaway to the rich and screwjob for everyone else. I suppose you believe people just got lazy and stupid, the GOP way...
how did they lose control? BTW, the Clinton years were my best years for making money. He went with the GOP and was great for america. dot com
Your anecdote is irrelevant. Yes the.com bubble was great for a while. They lost control because they gave Reagan a honeymoon and of course Republicans have decided reconciliation means they can do anything they want, which is by the way cutting taxes on the rich and screwing you over. Only propaganda makes this possible, brainwashed functional moron.

Freud claimed he could document and explain that need to rebel, relating it to a biological phenomenon…. “The Rebel Instinct: How Each Generation's Need To Out-Rebel The Previous Generation Is Pushing Society To Wild Extremes” The Rebel Instinct: How Each Generation's Need To Out-Rebel The Previous Generation Is Pushing Society To Wild Extremes

But whether it is psychological or biological…….it appears, most significantly, to be political.




3. A tip of the hat to Freud: there is no disputing the desire to stop taking orders from parents. OK. But it grows, in many, to the desire to not have to show respect, take orders from, or to mirror the style and tradition of an older, more successful generation. Perhaps the claim that socialists/communists are all about greed, to take from the successful without the work that went into that success...’You didn’t build that!’ …isn’t just to get the material things…


........it’s the psychological reward of rebellion.


Perhaps the rebel wants to gain that success by a different path, one that doesn’t require looking like, sounding like, and behaving like, our elders, that explains the 50% of Democrats who are socialists. Enter Bernie Sanders, stage Left.




Now…..get this, the fly in their ointment:

The problem for those rebels is that they have given up the intellect and the education that reveals what Socialism, Communism, Progressivism produces for societies, always:

....serfs, slaves….or corpses.
Especially to the young?

Why are the young so enamored with Socialism/Communism/Liberalism?
It may not be what seems to be the answer, free stuff.

The Answer may be something inherent to the human condition: a desire to be unique, and independent, and to make your own rules, and not have to answer to anyone else.



1.When Albert Camus wrote “The Rebel,” he put his finger on an aspect of human nature that most of us have, more so as youth, but, still, throughout our lives. We yearn to stand out, to be different, …we see it when the prettiest girl runs off with the ‘bad boy,’ or when the wild haired radical is the one everyone is talking about. True, family, and the desire for success often smooths the edges off, moderates how ‘different’ one chooses to be, and sometimes, later on, when we’ve given up most of that rebellion, we might come to resent those who actually carry it off…..but in our youth, we have it.

It’s all about the degree and desire to rebel.

You may be overcomplicating and overanalyzing the phenomenon. Many young people are rebels without a clue due to hormones and inexperience, granted. But there is something you may be overlooking.

A lot of these kids have been exposed to cult-like education since they were kindergartners. American education is so tethered to government today that educators are de facto agents of the government that have the ears of children.

If educators belong to public sector unions they are essentially government employees dependent on government both local and federal. It is to their benefit to indoctrinate children in a captive-audience setting to look to government to solve problems as opposed to relying on their own abilities and mental resources.

This has been going on since about 1965 and many of the kids are fractured by the Great Society, living in single parent homes where the father is gone.

They see socialism as an extension of the cult and the next logical step to getting back at the world that education has taught them is the source of their misery.


I didn't say it was the only explanation.

I said it is one factor that I have never seen given credit for the phenomenon.



And many times I have said this: if we do not wrest the school system back from the Liberals/Socialists/Democrats, as earlier Republicans pried their slaves away from them, then this nation is doomed.

91." Appointing conservative judges is the one objective that unites the Republican Party. It is one of the few things the Senate can do without the House.

And it is something that immediately impacts public policy because, during times of divided government, many political fights end up being resolved judicially.

Trump may not have the “best people” representing him or running his White House, but he’s picking them to be judges. Indeed, “based solely on objective legal credentials,” left-leaning Vox’s Ian Millhiser says, “the average Trump appointee has a far more impressive résumé than any past president’s nominees.”
Approximately 40 percent of Trump’s appellate nominees clerked for a Supreme Court justice, and about 80 percent clerked on a federal court of appeals. That compares to less than a quarter of Obama’s nominees who clerked on the Supreme Court, and less than half with a federal appellate clerkship."

I have a working knowledge of German....I read 'All Quiet On The Western Front' in the original German.

So, I should tell you that your default to that pedestrian vulgarity reveals how deeply wounded you are in this discussion.

And, with good reason.
