Biden’s entire career is a lie, and fabrication. Marred with plagiarism and now after 50 years of deceit and corruption he has signed out with auto pen. He leaves a legacy as the worst president in history.

And yet I know so many people who think Biden is a hero. They believe every word that came out of his administration and still do! It’s insane. The truth about COViD, Ukraine, the laptop, etc…. They still believe in the narratives! How do we help people accept the truth? It’s absolutely nuts here in Blue CA

Blue WA is pretty similar, I'm sure. I walk on eggshells at work because they are all still believing MSM.

I'm not sure if we can do any more that voting in every election and possibly moving to another locality in which we could add to the 'voice'. I've thought of moving out of state, but perhaps simply relocating elsewhere in state to have more of a voice outside of the I-5 corridor might be a thing to consider as well.

What is the difference? Or haven't you noticed that the "great peacemaker" Trump is going around acting like Curtis LeMay, finding new excuses for bombing other countries every day and even talking about annexing territories controlled by US' erstwhile allies, including Canada? The only difference between Biden and Trump is that they disagree on which nuclear superpower to play nuclear chicken with... Trump would prefer to lay off using Ukraine as proxy against Russia and use Taiwan as a proxy against China instead. No matter how or against who WWIII begins, it will certainly end with tens of millions of US workers DEAD - minimum! Unless workers in the US get busy building a revolutionary socialist workers party to disarm the money-lusting, warmongering US capitalist class, we are all likely to be reduced to remaining passive observers, watching WWIII go down as if it was just another blood-drenched Hollywood drama only happening on our TV screens. Dump the Republicrats; build a workers party; depose the capitalist class and fight for a socialist future, because *there is no future for the working class under the capitalist system!*

Capitalism was never overthrown in Venezuela. There was never a socialist revolution there; it’s a capitalist state with some pseudo-socialist reforms.

I’ll sell you the bridge real cheap. So you think Maduro is a capitalist?? Good one!

Mark Donaghey's avatar

Yes, as a revolutionary socialist I see not just Maduro but Chavez and their entire movement as being a movement of pro-capitalist reformists, not Marxist revolutionaries. When did the Chavistas overthrow capitalism? Show me the laws they passed outlawing capitalist exploitation of workers. I support many of their reforms and I admire their heroic defiance of US imperialism but they are not Marxist revolutionaries by any stretch of the imagination. Major oil companies were working in Venezuela under Chavez and even in the past year were preparing to resume operations there. Under socialism all oil production would be owned and operated for the benefit of the workers of Venezuela, not for the stockholders of Exxon-Mobil et al.

So all the 175 million workers of the USA can do is sit around and wait for the capitalist criminals of the USA to blunder their way into WWIII, killing us and our families? Not a great strategy, Mick. And Castro was nothing like Stalin. I guess workers in Europe should have given up overthrowing the monarchies of Europe after 1793 because it was inevitable that all that could happen would be that another Robespierre would rise to the top?

The USSR went from being a collapsed universally-hated monarchy to a First World superpower in just 25 years (it took the US about 125 years to do that); Venezuela never overthrew their capitalist class; Would you rather live in capitalist Haiti or socialist Cuba?; The standard of living for workers in Cambodia is higher than before their revolution sfaik; Eastern Europe is threatened by murderous nationalist and religious conflict that was impossible under USSR; War in Ukraine so destructive to both Ukraine and Russia unthinkable under USSR. You left out Vietnam, the DPRK and the most successful of all the socialist countries by far: China! Life expectancy in China is now higher than that in the USA! Socialism definitely works - for workers and especially for peasants.

Really? At the cost of just a few hundred million people we can all have stability after we reorient our economies to be more capitalistically aligned, like China? While those that live lose their freedoms and liberties as well as their souls? Mark fix the issues of capitalism but leave the death cult of communism to the death eaters

Expand full comment
Mark Donaghey's avatar

There is no “death cult of communism”; in fact, life expectancy has increased in every socialist country after their revolutions; if there is a “death cult” anywhere it must be “the death cult of capitalism” which launched WWI, WWII, the Korean, Vietnamese, Iraq, Afghanistan, Balkan and Ukraine wars, killing hundreds of millions of people - and now they want to sacrifice hundreds of millions of us once again by provoking the start of WWIII. The world’s #1 capitalist death cult - that of the US capitalist class - has even caused life expectancy in the US to fall below that in Socialist China!

Plus all the elections in California are rigged for the Democrats, whether we can prove it or not. There’s no other explanation why they always win, and by large margins, when most of the state is center right. Here are some of the ways the Democrats cheat elections:

Mail-in ballots for everyone.

Motor-voter registration at the DMV, including illegal aliens, who are allowed to get a driver license in California.

Voter ID is illegal in California.

He may be a close 2nd, Matt. In my mind’s eye however, Obama is the Worst as he started — and maintained through his surrogates — the attitude of “the end justifies the means” attitude in working in the public forum.

Obama told 300 Million Americans in 2010-2011 about Obamacare: “Your medical costs will not go up and could even go down.”

And where did the explosion of NGO funding begin?

Not to mention, I’m pretty sure that’s how the whole school tuition coverage taken over by the government came into play. They took the loans from bankers and decided to offer student loans at 6 5/8% to cover a vast portion of Obamacare costs. It was part of the 2010 Healthcare and Education Reconciliation Act. If you’d like to see Maxine Waters at her best, try to find the You Tube video of her calling in all the CEOs of major banks scolding them on how bad the students were being treated only to have Jaime Dimon let her know the banks were no longer in the business 😵‍💫

They do not compete remotely with Woodrow Wilson.

He got the U.S. into the First World War after campaigning in 1916 that he would never do that.

After the war he allowed the Germans to be treated awfully at the Versailles treaty meeting, which led to the rise of the Nazis and Hitler.

He resegregated the U,S. government and enthusiastically supported the KKK, raising its membership into the 3-4 million range from very small support.

None of these recent Presidents did things remotely that bad.

Having just finished reading Lies My Teacher Told Me, you’ve nailed the horrendous human being Woodrow Wilson as the single worst president in history.

He destroyed African Americans with his extreme racism. He is absolutely responsible for the rise in Nazism as well getting the US into WW1 - I can’t believe I attended an elementary school named after this scumbag.
