    Try again, some other time. White Supremacy is a failure, socialism is a failure, progressivism is a failure, globalism is a failure. You should just leave the dark side. #WalkAway

    Good start but then you went astray.

    "White supremacy is a failure." Yep.

    "Socialism" - well, it seems to be working well for folks in Europe: nice health care, economy, social mobility, education. Also medicare, Social Security. Good stuff.

    "Progressivism" See above, also led to a lot of improvements in the US around the turn of the last century - cleaned up a bunch of corruption, added things like ballot initiatives, women voting, and direct election of senators, civil rights laws. etc.

    "Gloabalism" Not sure what that is. But NATO has been a success, UN helped with facilitating some aid, reducing conflicts. Working together better than killing each other. Need a global approach to address climate change.

    All in all, I would rather be living now versus 50, 100, 500, 1,000 years ago.

        Some things work with a free market approach and others don't. You have to go issue by issue and decide how to tackle it, and cannot just make a blanket condemnation of "socialism."

    Could i have been nicer trying to point out the problem with your posts? Sure. Do you deserve it after repeatedly ignoring people's valid points and continuing your antagonistic campaigns while pretending you are some kind of reasonable centrist.
