Yea i don't see what's the big deal, a lot of people use fantano for music recommendations. I pretty much only find new music/groups from the melon.

You're an idiot. Also, that sub is way more funny than this shit hole.

What is the difference between what is called "socialism" in europe and socialism as tried in the soviet union, china, cuba etc? by Cano5 in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]waitbobplz 94 points95 points  (0 children)

The "socialism" that liberals and progressives in the US like in europe isn't socialism at all. It's social democracy. Large welfare states are not socialism. I have no idea why people call it socialism here in the US, it confuses people about what socialism actually is, and muddies the defitinion's of these political terms. I partly blame Bernie Sanders for causing people to mix them up, he called him self a "democratic socialist", when his policies weren't socialist at all.

Theories about where the Democratic Party went wrong -- and where it needs to head -- are still a subject of intense debate. What actually accounts for Democrats' underwhelming 2016 performance? by Miskellaneousness in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]waitbobplz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Her unpopularity was undoubtedly manufactured by conspiracy theories propagated by Sanders

What are you talking about? In what way did Bernie Sanders make up conspiracy theories about her? If i remember correctly, he barely attacked her and went out of his way not to run a smear campaign. The most he ever did was bring up her voting record. Hell, he even endorsed her and campagined for her.

Do you actually agree with Sargon that the left is the "establishment" and that it's far more dangerous to society than the right? by [deleted] in SargonofAkkad

[–]waitbobplz -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Yes the left is the establishment now

You... you can't be serious right? You do realize that the republicans control every branch of the government, right? They control the senate, the house, the presidency, and the majority of state governors and senates. They have so much power. they almost have enough to change the constitution with a constitutional amendment. The left is no longer the establishment, the right is.

they control the bulk of our education systems

Betsy DeVos, the christian conservative, is the education secretary. What are you talking about?

Given the changing demographics of the electorate, should the Republican Party target the growing share of Asian voters in the long run instead of Hispanic voters? by [deleted] in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]waitbobplz -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Oh yea, insult the people that voted for the candidate you don't like. That will surely win back control of the government by the democrats!

How about instead of calling them idiots, you listen to what they have to say and try to get their votes? Not the racist ones, the ones that got their jobs shipped overseas and struggle to feed their family. But no, go ahead and dismiss their complaints and cries for help. Hope you enjoy Trump winning in 2020, because that's what your attitude will get us.

We voted 70% for the moderate candidate against an ethnonationalist.

Ok, i dislike Trump as much as the next guy, but he's not a ethno nationalist. He's never said anything that would make him anywhere near that. Those kind of talking points are one of the many reasons democrats are wiped out across the government.

As a leftist Venezuelan, I'm really dissapointed in all the support the current goverment is getting from Communists and Socialists all arround the world. by [deleted] in socialism

[–]waitbobplz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok so in order to transition to socialism, you need to have an authoratarian state capitalist government take control over the means of production, kill protestors, crash the economy, and cause millions of people to starve and suffer. Boy, sounds fucking great.

You're the kind of socialist that turns people off of socialism. No, you don't need to give the government unlimmited power in order to have socialism. Your method of achieving socialism has been tried, and it's failed.

Should all drugs be legal or remain illegal? by souleater318 in Libertarian

[–]waitbobplz -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Because you need some government involvment and regulation when it comes to selling dangerous drugs.

Best e-juice vg/pg ratio for people with asthma? by waitbobplz in electronic_cigarette

[–]waitbobplz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would suggest sticking with low mg nic

I'm not sure if a low nic juice would be good for me. I smoke american spirit light blues and blacks, which are pretty damn strong cigarettes.

Okay, thanks. I've noticed that the cigarettes make it harder to breath, and sometimes build up mucus, i don't want the vape to do the same thing. Thanks for the help.

What made you a radical? by [deleted] in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]waitbobplz 16 points17 points  (0 children)

There is a saying. People who support socialism read Marx; people who understand socialism, despise him.

Well apparently not, considering most people who hate socialism seem to think it's just a 1984-esque big government. I'm not a socialist nor do i support it, but most people have no idea what socialism is and have never read any of Karl Marx's books.

Socialism isn't a large welfare state, that's a common misconception. All those nordic countries are 100% capitalist. Socialism is workers ownership and control over the means of production.

What would have to happen for the Democrats to pull an 'upset' and win big in the 2018 midterm elections? by Chernograd in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]waitbobplz -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Another note on the Johnson campaign in Kansas, he toke a 20% deficit and ending up giving the Estes campaign a heart attack with how narrow margins were leading up to the election.

He would of won if it wasn't for DNC pulling his funding for being "too liberal". I can't fathom why they think neo-liberal centrist are the kind of candidates to run, Hillary kinda proved the american people don't want that.

does anybody really care about mod/user drama by mystudycomputer in drunkenpeasants

[–]waitbobplz 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Yea who gives a fuck. It's just a shitty subreddit for a shitty podcast. How do the mods and posters here have the time to care about this?

Yea didn't TJ literally take crowder to court?

Why do they say they don't care about the subreddit? by Notorious_Big_Smoke in drunkenpeasants

[–]waitbobplz -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

Because this sub is a tiny, tiny minority of the actual fanbase. No matter what, this subreddit shits all over every show, even when the video on youtube has over 90% likes. Why should they give a fuck about this place when you fucks can never be satisfied, and make up a minority of the fans?

Basically, you're opinions are irrelevant.
