    Not that it stopped other people from forming their own kingdoms afterwards, even if they were smaller. That whole black plague thing made a huge mess of the modern world at the time.

    Why are we talking about the Romans as if their government or society was something to aspire to? Nationalism is incompatible with democracy and free market capitalism.

    Nationalism, capitalism, religion-all are direct competitors with marxism and marxists know it.

    I'm not positive you know what these terms mean. What's incompatible between Marxism and christianity? Doesn't jesus encourage us to eschew worldly possessions and spend our lives serving the lord by helping our fellow man?

    You would have to ask the chinese muslims in the camps.


    Internet Sleuths Are Hunting for China’s Secret Internment Camps for Muslims
    The country is using high-tech methods of repression, but even the simplest tech may be enough to expose them.


    Citizen journalists and scholars are in a race against time, scouring the internet for evidence before the Chinese government can erase it. Since last year, the country has been sending vast numbers of Muslims to internment camps, where it tries to force them to renounce Islam and embrace the Communist Party, as The New York Times and other media outlets have reported based on interviews with former inmates. At this point, as many as 1 million Muslims are being held in the camps, according to an estimate widely cited by the United Nations and U.S. officials.

    I have seen the camps in north korea, its kinda orwellian, but so is the left.

    Have Christians not persecuted muslims? This just makes communism more compatible with christianity not less. Are you secretly trying to help me prove my point?
    This is a strawman. How did the Christians help the muslims during the crusades? It doesn't really matter does it because it isn't really your argument just as I'm not arguing that Marxism actually helped anyone. The tenets of Marxism are indisputably similar to those of jesus christ.

    This is what happens when you mix Christianity and Communism...
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonestown
    The Peoples Temple was formed in Indianapolis, Indiana, in 1955.[8] Its roots and teachings shared with biblical church and Christian revival movements, it purported to practice what it called "apostolic socialism".[9][10] In doing so, the Temple preached that "those who remained drugged with the opiate of religion had to be brought to enlightenment — socialism."[11][12] In the early 1960s, Jones visited Guyana – then still a British colony – while on his way to establishing a short-lived Temple mission in Brazil.[13]

    After Jones received considerable criticism in Indiana for his integrationist views, the Temple moved to Redwood Valley, California in 1965.[14] In the early 1970s, the Temple opened other branches in Los Angeles and San Francisco, and would eventually move its headquarters to San Francisco.[15]

    With the move to San Francisco came increasing political involvement by the Temple. After the group's participation proved instrumental in the mayoral election victory of George Moscone in 1975, Moscone appointed Jones as the Chairman of the San Francisco Housing Authority Commission.[16] Unlike many other figures who are considered cult leaders, Jones enjoyed public support and contact with some of the highest level politicians in the United States. Jones personally met with vice presidential candidate Walter Mondale and First Lady Rosalynn Carter. Guests at a large 1976 testimonial dinner for Jones included Governor Jerry Brown, Lieutenant Governor Mervyn Dymally, and Assemblyman Willie Brown, among others.[17]

    What's incompatible between Marxism and Christianity?
    The Marxists' outright rejection of Christianity, for one great big thing.

    And as always, when folks on the left try to appropriate Jesus to
    endorse their ideological point of view, Jesus called on individuals to help the poor and do good works to honor God as their personal commitment to Him.

    Government enforced "good deeds" have no God component in them. Compelled charity isn't an act of love. It's an act of submission
    to government authority.

    I'm not a Christian or a marxists smart guy. I simply said religion and Marxism aren't inherently incompatible and then you went on to prove me right. I don't care if they all killed themselves. Good for them. And us probably. That little tidbit doesn't affect my argument whatsoever.

    There is someone who doesn't know much about Communism or Christianity.
    You could be a Christian while under Communist rule but that's really not the same thing.

    Well as of late we have seen a girl ridiculed on National News for wearing the dress of a different culture, (Indian I believe, to a prom because she doesn't appreciate the culture enough. I'd take Tucker's word over the word of Al Sharpton or the Reverend Jesse Jackson, or Maxine Waters who make their livings on race baiting.

    If I want an accurate assessment on racial issues, a loudmouth white Guy like Tucker Carlson is not who im going to. Anyone on Fox has all the credibility of a used condom as far as racial discussions go.

    As I said, he cuts them off only when they begin stating bias as fact.

    The rejection of religion stems from the belief that religion had become to tool of the ruling class not because the teachings of christianity and jesus christ are dissimilar to those of socialism or communism.

    I know nothing of MLK quotes, sorry. I'm referring to the assessment of another based on his/her behaviour, rather than their ethnicity.

    I don't know about that. I can tell you that where I live, Conservatives don't seem to give a damn about race. They rarely discuss it, it's a non issue. The people discussing it (constantly) are all Lefties.
