So Dims have a conundrum. They keep preaching the virtue of democracy but are also advocating gutting the wealthy countries in favor of global redistribution. How will this be sold via democracy to the wealthy nations?
I'm thinking they have one of two options, they will deceive voters or they will simply shove it down their throats. Being honest about what is about to happen is not an option via the democratic process in the rich countries. The one thing they could do, however, is erase borders so that rich countries are no longer sovereign. At that point they can then rely on the overwhelming poor population of the world to dilute their voice in a one world government. At that point it works.

Right wing disinformation - check:
A story this week in the conservative National Review claims that, based on a new study in Nature Sustainability, environmentalists want “to make the rich West much poorer so that the destitute can become richer.” Climate Depot gave the study the headline banner treatment and reposted it; giving the Depot’s wide reach in Denierdom, we can probably expect to see more of this attack. The study fits perfectly with a common denier narrative that climate action is just a communist hoax to redistribute wealth from rich countries to poor, so it’s not surprising that deniers would want to shout it from the rooftops
But there are two big problems with this story. One, no one, environmentalist or otherwise, is trumpeting this study as justification for wealth redistribution. And two, the study says absolutely nothing about wealth redistribution.

Is it limited to only US citizens? it would appear not as they welcome illegals and treat them better than US citizens.
Now I'm sure Dims will only claim to want to represent US citizens, because that is their job, but in reality, that is not what they do, is it?
You can be an illegal and shoot someone dead in San Fran and walk away a free man.

Shedding light onto your ideology would destroy you so you have to lie about it.
I'll just sit here and wait for those lower Obamacare premiums with the same coverage and doctor.

Originally posted by @whodeyYeah, whodey, you're right. There IS a reason no one wants to discuss this. The reason is that it is unmitigated, manufactured BS.

No one on the left wants to propagate the insane ramblings of the likes of alt-right news sources, like Fox News. They've already been almost completely discredited among anyone who knows anything, and we're all just waiting for people like you, whodey, who have sold their souls to the company store, to wake up and realize that the Emperor has no clothes.
Do yourself a HUGE favor, whodey. Stop watching Fox News, and other alt-right news sources like the National Review. You might wake up one day and suddenly find yourself able to carry on a reasonable conversation with people, instead of being a spoon-fed jackass.

open-minded and willing to challenge orthodoxy than those on the right.
In other words "sheep" is best applied to right-wingers.
