Socialism is for losers.


Don't know how I missed this, but I'm glad I came across it to provide a laugh on a quiet Sunday afternoon. And WOW, that's NOT an egotistical opine AT ALL.

For arguments sake, let's pretend that's true. Now, let's read my sig and see if I say that, then we'll look at the definition of essence.

Sig - Socialism is the essence of love.

Essence - the characteristic or intrinsic feature of a thing, which determines its identity; fundamental nature.

If I had said "love is the essence of socialism", then your "socialism isn't love, it's theft" proposition could at the very least be considered a viable critique, but because that's not the case, your assertions thenceforth are null and void (not that there's any credence to them regardless).

Ummmmmmmmmmmmm, your entire post presumes that you know what's better for me than I do.

The only reasonable argument for owning a gun is to protect yourself from the police.
