    Ah, so because you draw an arbitrary line, it makes it okay for one but not the other.

    Hypocrisy, thy name is Conservatism.

    You are badly, badly misrepresenting Bernie's quote. Please try actually reading what he said.

    Bernie is for socialism, so let's not play word games and act as if it changes anything. Socialism will lead to what you're seeing in Venezuela. Learn from it before it's too late.

    I've probably spent more time promoting capitalism than most on this forum. Wrong tree bud.

    I think we are being misled by the terminology

    Under socialism the government owns and operates the factories

    But neo socialists do not want to work

    So they have morphed into the fascist economic model of private ownership but strict government control and redistribution of the wealth

    They're statists. They want the gov't to take from the producers to give it to the losers (themselves) with no strings attached ... just like they do here.

    Within the seed of socialism lies the germ of authoritarianism...

    Read History, folks. This is how the Left has rolled since its violent birth during the French Revolution.

    Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose...

    Which begs the question:

    This year marks the 30th Anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall...

    Why even participate in this thread if you refuse to address the topic? No one made false accusations. Bernie and his supporters wants socialism, therefore, they want the same thing that's happening in Venezuela. Simple really.

    The order to run over civilians by the military would be considered an unlawful order and should be refused by all soldiers.

    Venezuela's problem began due to an incompetent government who did not know how to manage it's people and resources.

    CNN most definitely does engage in ridiculous conspiracy theories, such as the debunked Russia Collusion conspiracy theory it has been propagating for the past two years.

    Which makes the crackpots at CNN no better than the crackpots at InfoWars...

    That was symbolic since they support a socialist gov't. Everyone else knew that it wasn't to be taken literally. Rather than address the topic, you've spent numerous posts arguing that. They weren't cheering the people getting run over, but if they support socialism, I'm sure they're just fine with the gov't having the control over the people and what's led to this.

    What we are seeing in Venezuela is what will happen to this country if any of the 20 clown car Dems are elected.
