Right about the titles. But wrong or flat out lying about Marx's antisemitism.

What? Even accepting your definition of 'tool'; Communism is a tool to move the ownership of the means of production from one group of oligarchs to another.

Many kids were reds throughout recent history. Those of them with any brains get over it by the time they are thirty. This generation will be no different.

Communism is not a tool. Like a wrench, a computer or even a tax.

Communism is a philosophy. It puts too much power in the hands of too few and has inevitable evil outcomes.

So what? A bunch of books of philosophy have led to terrible outcomes. The outcomes are due to flaws in reasoning in the philosophy.

The doesn't amount to 'polar opposites', rather inevitable outcomes.

They downplay far more then 1 of 2.

Ask them about 'The Jewish Question' and watch them bob and weave.

BTW I agree. The problems with Marxism are baked in. Not just implementation details.

Carl should have spent more time reading and understanding Adam Smith.

It impairs you in having a market for 'means of production'.

Norway is a capitalist welfare state. If you have to pigeon hole it.

Modern socialism is defined by who owns the means of production. Leave it in private hands but tax the profits and you are only 'socialist' in the minds of right wing derpers.

That said there are reasons for limiting the tax rate. Mostly to control the size of government.

Conservatives don't care if you want to join any form of voluntary socialism. (Family, commune, religious net jobs etc). Just don't try to make it compulsory and run by government.

The Occutards.

So Rand was right!

LOL, no.

Most bureaucrat's agenda is 'How do we serve ourselves and our paymasters'. Duh.

QoS violates net neutrality.

But more basically, do you trust government to decide what is and isn't acceptable QoS shaping vs. server extortion.

Do you believe for a second that the government won't turn this into another way of forcing their agenda onto ISPs? Have you paid attention to what they do with gas tax money and states?

We know there is an ice age tipping point just a few degrees colder then present. Geo-engineering could fuck us all if they trust a climate model that overestimates.

Alternatively we could all be driving 10 liter W-16s, just to save the planet.

Eventually is a nice word. You can be completely wrong today but adding that one word...
