How can he be a moslim, a communist, a jihadist and anti-semitic all at the same time?

Don’t you think you’re swallowing a load of dog crap as it’s being shoved down your throat by fear mongering morons?

Certainly sounds that way to me.
But, why can he not be a muslim , a communist, and anti-semite at the same time?


@AverageJoe1 said
Why can he not be? Don't get your question. How bout stating it as a fact, with an explanation as to how he cannot be.
A jihadist moslim is a tautology.
And a jihadist can’t be a communist.

I don't need or want to know about slime, so I pass. Wonderful philosophical patter for the educated, though.

You mean you don’t like facts getting in the way of the narrative which has been rammed up your arse.

No, I don't 'know' the facts, so elect to not get into religion. Or those medieval creatures. Try Sonhouse. Then, y'all can get into what was meant by 'An eye for an eye'. Yeah, what do you THINK about that. Geez.

Don't bother to tell me what Geeehad is. Killers, I am told.
So here we have Shav, who said that we should not have wasted Hiroshima, and ....what, Shav, .......go hand to hand for four or five years with the japs on their territory? I begged you to close that post, but you never did.

They were about to surrender.
The USSR was crushing them from China and there was a complete bloackade around Japan.

It was a question of squeezing them dry for a couple of months and that was it.

Don’t try to act like the murdering of thousands of civilians was needed or disagreeing with it is a crazy viewpoint to have.

And you are the one calls the New York mayor a communist and Jihadist. You don’t expect to be called out on that BS?

How stupid are you really?

Whatever...Truman and his advisors were wrong. You win on that point!! 🤔
(for the record, those heathen animals did not give-a-shte about a blockade. geez.). They liked stomaching your granddaddy with a bayonet.

No more religion, no more Hiroshima wipeout.

Hahahaha. You say Mamdani is not a communist???

Class struggle: The belief that history is driven by conflict between economic classes and that society must move beyond capitalism to achieve equality.
Post-capitalism: The goal of creating a stateless, classless society where resources are distributed based on need.
Self-governance: A focus on voluntary, self-governing communities where individuals have equal political and economic rights.

AND, Shav, he also fosters government owning the 'means of production'.

This will be a long-running issue. I will win the debates merely by reporting his hitting one brick wall after another. And please, YouandSue, state true facts. One of you said earlier that as mayor he can do all the things that he promised, when, in fact, he has no power to do so.

Dude… READ!

I didn’t say he wasn’t a communist.
I merely point out he can’t be a communist and a jihadist.

Ok, I see that.

Please at least leave out the geehad comments, we have enough on our plate, to enjoy watching the Mamdani exploits. Imagine, from the point of view of conservatives like myself, that this will be a feast of dialogue. You have an uphill battle, pushing socialism in the United States of America.. We can skip communism for the moment, as he has that in his hip pocket at the outset. He will go after all of the small little things in our society, before tackling the big stuff. Trust me.

I wonder how many people lamenting the evils of socialism realize that US spending on the military is entirely premised upon socialism?

How?

This spending is not reliant upon supply and demand as the demand is arbitrarily set by a government put in place by lobbyists for the military. There is no choice about this as both parties are subject to lobbying of this kin ...[text shortened]... lapse the economy.

Strange that these two blatant acts of socialism avoid scrutiny, I wonder why?
We can add the following to your list: postal service, fire and police protection, many hospitals, public education, maintaining and constructing roads and highways, national and state parks, .... I am sure the list is longer. I could add Medicare and Social Security, both of which are paid for by workers including undocumented workers who receive zero benefits, but many here would have our country look like the most impoverished spots on the planet where hordes of people pick through the garbage dump for food and their home is a pile of rags on the street.

I've already 'brought it' and you didn't respond.

I'm waiting for an explanation as to why you don't think spending on the military is akin to the socialism that you seem to deplore so much...

Be fair. If I write five or six paragraphs about things that just pissed me off, I do not expect you to read them. Especially if you already know what I am going to say, and Sonhouse , that is what you are all about.
You win the award as the most redundant of all posters but you know that. You do know that? People like to be entertained and hear fresh stuff, even if it is totally in opposition of what one thinks.
Take your corruption tomes. It is a crime. But, Since Trump has never been convicted of corruption, then he has not
crime of corruption in the eyes of the law.Ahhhh, but he has in your eyes. So everyone stop what you’re doing , and adopt Sonhouse’s unfounded conclusion.Oh my God, you are going to write tones about this comment. If you do, establish that your findings 🤣😆 would not be recognized in a court of law. Then carry on, talking again as usual to yourself.
