Is this a joke? Barely beating Ecuador/Jamaica/Macedonia in GDP per capita is NOT an accomplishment. That's like a McDonalds employee being excited about making more than a Burger King employee. They are all essentially living in squalor in a perpetual state of destitution. 

 

EDIT: Quoted the wrong post, but I'm not going to fix it. :)

People showing their true colors.

People who show admiration to Castro are crypto-communists. A typical sign of this person is often that he doesn't get truly upset by atrocities like the Gulags or the Long March.

These people love the process that is going on in some Western European societies and USA toward the socialist totalitarian state, where free speech is prohibited because all opposing opinion is labeled as "hate speech" in some form.

A true leftist hates democracy. They are never satisfied, not until the whole world is conquered, and everybody has been made "equal" and suppressed under socialist ideology.

As long as we need people to work,comunism/socialism will never be viable. We need people of different "casts" doing jobs of different levels.In other words,we need innequality so some people are forced to work in things they wouldn't if they had other choices.

Do you think  european countries are accepting muslims because they are nice? they are basically importing poor people because in places like sweeden "their" people is just too educated to accept "shitty" jobs, so you need to import those who will.

In the the future,when everything could be done via computers, AI and robots maybe we can reach full equality because then our society will be based on robots slavery and comunism will become viable.

We don't need castes or classes or anything. Examples have shown us communism, socialism or other classless societies can exist. It's a sociological construct, not a social law.

"can exist"

And the leftists in the West are trying to make our Western free democracies into communist nations! It's not a popular thing for them to admit, because the word "communism" still gives bad associations to normal people, but the communist utopia is definitely in the back of the mind of all these SJWs, modern liberal progressives who we often see on social media and in our universities screaming about fascism, privilege and trigger warnings.

why is everything because of the leftists? Donald Trump himself can blow up the country and leftists will somehow be involved with it.

The only process going on is toward neoconservative neoliberal states. There is no indicator that we're moving to socialism.

I would celebrate his death, except his even more vile brother is now in charge:

The guy wants to nuke New York. 'Nuff said.

I guess brutally murdering your own people gets old after a while and you need to move on to greener pastures.

Too bad. I had hoped he'd survive Henry Kissinger.
