A reminder for those who missed it. This very clear explanation (below) of how so-called âleftismâ is bigger than communism and bigger than moneyless societiesâwith a subtle jab about how red scare propaganda has turned a generation of people into black and white thinkersâstarted an absolute war where Dan and a few other capitalism-fetichists just kept playing the âleftism is communism is death squadsâ card over and over again. It has been the most fatiguing 24 hours that has made me detest some folks I once set aside my differences with and enjoyed discussing with.

A lot of the time people label mixed economies as âsocialistâ without being challenged on it. Then once that definition is established they argue against âsocialismâ as defined by state ownership of the means of production. Donât go along for the ride. Itâs just gonna go in circles until the wheels fall off.

Rather than âyour sources are inaccurateâ try âthatâs not even what weâre talking aboutâ By attempting to correct a piece of irrelevant information, it aligns you as defending whatever it is theyâre ranting against.

Well tbf I did call his favourite book factually inacurate garbage and he tried to back it up with links to Wikipedia articles that I have to assume he didnât read. I pointed out that they confirmed my point about gross exaggeration but in way too many words. Youâre right, I should have been succinct. Maybe throw in a condescending little :) like he does whenever he assumes heâs ratiod someone.
