Nathan Brooks4 said:The communists always had their sights set on dismantling the Catholic Church. And honestly, it feels like today’s power players are just carrying that same torch. So, what is the average American actually doing about it? 🤷
Americans aren't doing a damn thing about it. They’re too busy worrying about trash bins and garbage cans sitting right next to the church gates.😁
Jeffrey Hughes91 said:It’s hardly surprising. Opportunism is just... human, I suppose. If Franjo Harmon had handed me a factory, I’d be singing his praises right along with her. It’s the same deal if I’d been born under Josip Broz Marshall and joined the Party. Everyone wants a free lunch. Who wouldn't?
😁
Look, I'm telling you right now, that kind of stuff just didn't exist back under socialism. So, I was checking out the latest absolute circus happening over at the local precinct today, and honestly, it’s just straight-up banditry at this point. It feels like every single thing they touch turns into some kind of shady, low-life hustle. I am just way too much.
Look, you were totally misinformed from the jump, so honestly, your take doesn't carry any weight here. When it comes down to the actual conclusions...😁
Jeffrey Hughes91 said:I wish I could go back to being a kid too, where someone else wipes my ass and feeds me, but life doesn't really work that way. Still, I suppose there's some logic there... for a seven-year-old, anyway.☕.
Now they'll probably start spouting some tired slogan about Harmon and the Church.🤣.
Karen Rodriguez3 said:I mean, yeah, but wouldn't she just... if you didn't have to stress about competition, landing contracts, hiring people, salaries, taxes, or all those other headaches... maybe someone else would handle the boring stuff😁
if you're hand-picked for the job, then sign me up too.
I know I'm probably a little smarter than average, but honestly, I'd jump at the chance to fit right into a role like that.😁
Jeffrey Hughes91 said:Exactly this 👍. It’s a brutally objective look at what life is actually like in Cuba. I guess I suspected this might happen—behind all our romanticized notions of that socialist corner of the world, there's just basic human nature, which is pretty much the same everywhere. If anyone wants that lifestyle, they should just move to their "paradise." Sure, America isn't Norway by any standard, but I wouldn't want to live in Cuba either. This system works because it gives you the freedom to shape your own life. Want to focus on your career? You can. Study, work hard, and suddenly the whole EU market is open to your ambitions. Want to prioritize family? You can, and the state even helps out with various incentives for having kids. Want to travel and see the world? Go ahead. Freedom implies responsibility, and I suppose some people just prefer being spoon-fed through life. That's different. ☕ Anyone still preaching about how "great" Cuba is should probably ditch their computer, phone, and all those other Western evils and just move there. ☕

You’re just so incredibly obsessed with everything Western, it’s like you can’t even see how much they’re actually lacking - seriously, you're blind to it.
Karen Rodriguez3 said:I've been waiting for over twenty years myself, so yeah, nothing yet. I just want a cheap apartment and maybe half a beach house like the ones those well-connected types used to build—you know, the ones who snagged all the places my parents paid top dollar for, even though they only ever saw them in brochures.☕ Those same people probably swindled whatever was left, too.
Man, why haven't I ignored you yet... I'm literally just sitting here chewing my lip because your posts get me so worked up.😢
🙂
You can't be sitting there sipping Gatorade in a democracy! We just need to wake people up 🙂
crimsonwolf20 said:The truth is, there are no actually honest or decent socialists (or even the opportunists lounging in comfy office chairs within a socialist system) it only exists in the minds of naive idealists who believe you can run a society fairly through sheer force
That’s why we need to reel in the scope of power and move past this whole socialist legacy once and for all. We're slowly sinking, just maybe a little slower than when the old socialist America collapsed. ☕
like I already told you: you're definitely an interesting case study and we've got nothing but respect for the honest admins here😁
I’m just sitting here waiting, honestly just praying I get my (stolen) property back and that those thieves get kicked to the curb once and for all - maybe send 'em straight to San Quentin, Alcatraz, or Rikers Island😁
