Hey "Progressives!"

[PaxNurgle]

At least they have the BALLS to stand up for freedom, liberty, and the Constitution.

The things that our veterans sacrificed and DIED for in past wars.
Your side LOST world war 2, your side LOST the civil war, and your side will LOSE again because despite what you believe, Americans value freedom and liberty over tyranny, oppression and corruption. Your little fetish totalitarian dreams will vanish overnight and you will be wondering what the fuck happened.

AMERICA will happen. Do you really think people are going to take this shit sitting down? Guess what; they are already waking up and fighting back. Your kind lost the second world war, because dictatorships never last.

And people wonder why Democrats are at their lowest approval rating in something like 50 years. Because all they do is bitch and complain about MAGA this, MAGA that, MAGA, MAGA, MAGA.

Meanwhile, back in the real world, your progressive dreams are vanishing more and more every day. Because you LOST the culture war.

Meanwhile back in the real world, Trump’s approval rating is 37%.

Bullshit. Democrats are at their lowest approval rating because they, too, are captives of corporate lobbying and "eternal growth" economics. They just don't happen to be as fascistic as the MAGAts. Most of the Democratic reps are wimps, and almost all of the Republican reps have become autocratic cult followers.

The so-called culture war is nothing more than a device used by corporate oligarchs to get cheap votes from resentful MAGAts who want to blame women and minorities for their unhappiness. Ultimately, the heavily armed and control-obsessed MAGAts will lose their control over women and minorities.

America as a whole is sick with rampant consumerism, racism, and misogyny. It's a nation that has lost its way and does not understand how to live in a peaceful and sustainable way.

So the problem with D's dismal failure isn't that Progressives and their ideas have gone down the shitter, it's your boss who is the real problem?

I think you need a do a bit of self reflection here, and I don't mean mirror gazing.

100 years of their shit. They get a little power, then fail, then rebrand and try to sell it again. Everywhere they've tried its turned into a shit show. USSR, Cuba, Venezuela, and things aren't looking good over in China these days.

And the answer to all those failures is the same, "They didn't do it right. We'll be different."

And the short answer to that is, "No you won't, you'll fuck it up just like the rest."

So you're saying that this thread wasn't about the differences between republcs and democracies and instead is just an anti liberal whine fest?

Shocking.....I did not expect that ¯⁠\⁠(⁠°⁠_⁠o⁠)⁠/⁠¯

*Checks thread title*

Yep, this thread is about/for the Progressives, aka Socialists, aka Communists.

 

[MasterAnimus]

Right.

Tell us, have you figured out the definition of "woman" yet?

Have you figured out what it is to be a Christian yet? Or, democracy? Or, constitution?

Thanks for confirming.
The first post made it seem like a different thread topic

[pats on Harpy's head] I never expect a brainwashed MAGAt to understand my posts.

Go play with the other incels.

Yes, we understand you think you're the ruler of the world.

Unfortunately for you, that particular fantasy never had a chance.

 

[HisArpy]

Have you figured out what it is to be a Christian yet? Or, democracy? Or, constitution?

Yes. Yes. And yes.

Have you?

 

[MasterAnimus]

Yes. Yes. And yes.

Have you?

Clearly, you haven't figured out the definition of Yes.

 

[HisArpy]

Clearly, you haven't figured out the definition of Yes.

CLEARLY you're an unmitigated asshole because EVERYTHING you listed is so simple that the ONLY people who can't figure it out, are assholes like you.

HAHAHA - clearly you are out of ideas. Assuming you had any to begin with.

 

[SgtSpiderMan]

I think your definition is anything Trump wants to sexually assault, right?

 

[HisArpy]

HAHAHA - clearly you are out of ideas. Assuming you had any to begin with.

Right, I'm the one out of ideas. I mean it's not YOU who had to revert to stupid statements about figuring out Christianity, democracy, or constitution, right?

1. Christianity is a faith. Something most people have in one form or another.

2. democracy (sic) is a form of government. One which the US doesn't have.

3. constitution (sic). A foundational document which encompasses all of the things the government is allowed to do and that which it is not allowed to do.

4. Masteranus - an asshole who irritates Literotica with Piles and Piles of misery.

 

[Baztrachian]

A republic is a democracy

Fascism is a form of socialism.

Wow... you have a lot to learn.

No it isn't

No, it's you who has a lot to learn. Unfortunately in your advanced age I don't think you have sufficient time left to do so before reporting for work here at the Hotel of Eternia.

 

[Baztrachian]

Meanwhile back in the real world, Trump’s approval rating is 37%.

From Duck-Duck-Go AI summary searched on "trump approval rating july 2025"

"As of July 2025, Donald Trump's approval rating is reported to be around 43.5%, with a disapproval rating of approximately 53.8%. This marks a decline in his approval since the beginning of his second term."

Did you go to Trump U for Insults 101 class? It shows

 

[Baztrachian]

No it isn't

Whether you like it or not it is.

"Giovanni Gentile, a neo-Hegelian philosopher, was the intellectual author of the “doctrine of fascism,” which he wrote in conjunction with Benito Mussolini. Gentile’s sources of inspiration were thinkers such as Hegel, Nietzsche, and also Karl Marx.

Gentile went so far as to declare “Fascism is a form of socialism, in fact, it is its most viable form.” One of the most common reflections on this is that fascism is itself socialism based on national identity.

Gentile believed that all private action should be oriented to serve society. He was against individualism, for him there was no distinction between private and public interest. In his economic postulates, he defended compulsory state corporatism, wanting to impose an autarkic state (basically the same recipe that Hitler would use years later).

A basic aspect of Gentile’s logic is that liberal democracy was harmful because it was focused on the individual which led to selfishness. He defended “true democracy” in which the individual should be subordinated to the State. In that sense, he promoted planned economies in which it was the government that determined what, how much, and how to produce."

Nope.

Fascism is not a form of socialism.

It is a form of authoritarianism, autocracies and totalitarianism....which all can start off as capitalism, socialism, democracy or socialism...... fascism is not a subset of any of those

A republic, however, is a subset of democracy.
