      Really Star, what exactly would you disagree with? Communism is not anti-American, anti-democratic and anti-freedom?

          I'm not a Putin loving, anti american, anti democracy troll like your russian troll buddy CP. So, let me see, you have the Alt Right, i.e. the white supremecists, white nationalists, the KKK, the Neo Nazi's, the skin heads, russian trolls, not to mention Putin and Russia itself, all on your side of the issues. Sometimes we can get a pretty good idea of who people are by seeing the company they keep.

            Yes on all points. Communism is not inherently any of those things.

              It can be totally blamed on Trump for creating the environment for such an event.

              We are speaking of hundreds of white nationalists, neo-Nazis and Ku Klux Klan members who now feel empowered to stage what they described as their largest rally in decades to “take America back”. The driver of the car that ploughed into those protesting the rally went to Charlottesville specifically to support the Alt-Right rally, according to his mother. Trump's strategic adviser Steve Bannon, is a supporter of the Supremacist Alt-Right Movement and former editor of Breitbart, which is the mouthpiece of the Alt-Right. Trump himself refuses to acknowledge the fascist domestic terrorism, as he freely does when it comes to Muslim hate groups.

                  To be fair, America has a sordid history of slavery/white-nationalism and the KKK, so in some ways they are as 'American' as you can get, in a bad way.

                    america's allegedly unique history (it's not lol) is routinely used as an excuse by left wing racists to unlawfully discriminate against white people or in favor of certain minorities.

                      Time to cause some more butthurt: some twitter users were speculating that the car hit was an accident on account of the guy panicking after being attacked. I didn't think much of it because there was just low quality video but this twitter user making the case has a much higher quality video where you can see an antifa hitting the car with a baseball bat BEFORE the deadly charge:

                      https://twitter.com/LucidHurricaneX/...57214136311808

                      It would also be obvious why he didn't stick around: armed leftist mobs (or as Sea of Red would call them, innocent, peaceful protesters) immediately started hitting the car with baseball bats.

                          It be would more accurate to say that the Democrat party "has a sordid history of slavery/white-nationalism and the KKK".

                            Yes it is. Seer is 100 percent correct. Communism looks perfect on paper. It looks like a totally ideal society. But when you take the reality of it, No one can earn money, because the government pays it. So where does extra money come from? You can't tax the people. Any goods and trades, no one is allowed to earn on except the government and that only goes so far. In every country where full communism is implemented the reality is that people become entirely impoverished.

                              In a communist economy, the government owns the businesses, hence the government generates income through the income those businesses make. Just as a business owner in capitalism can afford to pay their employees, so the government in a communist economy can afford to pay employees for exactly the same reason. Your analysis doesn't make any sense for that reason.
