| o_O.Q said: "Lol so first you believe that the guy who allied with the German capitalists is a socialist" lmao... ok i'll change my question... do you agree that hitler controlled the economy of germany through his government? after you've answered that question tell me whether its socialism or capitalism that cedes control of the means of production to government
"now you believe that the Soviet Union is an example of tyranny of the majority." now there's really only two ways that i can interpret this since you have acknowledged that the soviet union was democratic either you don't think that the soviet union was a tyranny which would be a tragedy or you're just being dishonest
" Oh also nice doublethink, there you agree with me that democracy in the Soviet Union was eroded by authoritarianism" the only way you could say that is if you didn't read my post... i mean you quoted it... did you not read it?
so are you really trying to tell me though that you don't understand that a democracy can be authoritarian? you don't think that its possible for the majority of people in a society to vote the rights of the people in their society away to government? |
"Change your question"? Your question has been answered numerous times in the thread but you refuse to listen. You're kidding if you think I owe you another explanation. If anything you owe me for the question you have yet to answer in our last discussion about race 
now there's really only two ways that i can interpret this since you have acknowledged that the soviet union was democratic
I said that democracy eroded away to authoritarianism from the central state, whereas you say "the soviet union was democratic" as a definite statement. If you think those statements are equal, try again. Maybe you should go find some Marxist-Leninists to hang out with and tell them how democratic Stalin was, you'll fit right in with them, lmao.
Oh and before god forbid, you say something like "Stalin was democratic!", the word is totalitarian.
you don't think that its possible for the majority of people in a society to vote the rights of the people in their society away to government?
So you do understand what it means. The real question is if you get what it means, then why did you choose the worst possible example instead of just saying this in the first place?
I know; I highly doubt you believe in half of the stuff you say. It's obvious you have a problem with the left, but all these bizarre arguments you make are just a front to mask your real points which is why you're always moving the goal posts. But I have no interest in discussing your point, I wanted to pick apart your example and I got what I wanted. I see no point continuing this conversation.
Regardless, I know you're going to reply to this post and I eagerly await to read it!
