Calling a spade a spade????

So we keep referring to liberals, socialists, democratic socialists, Progressives, leftists, etc...

But the reality is that they all fall under a pretty classic rubric: Communists.

How about we just start calling a spade a spade... all these folks are communists. We may have ended the cold war against the USSR (when they failed!) and moved to, in all honesty, a National Socialist economy (Yes, Putin is a Nazi... in practice.)

So how about we just adopt the term Communist or Commie when we talk about these idiots. Because the USSR enemy may have gone away and the Communist rot is now one growing within.

Let's get with the program here... and stop whitewashing what these idiots are. They are communists. Whether Antifa, liberal, progressive... whatever.

Exactly, Diver!

So as a community here on SH... should we not simply drop the maskirova... and call them Commies in all our communications? I think that should become a standard here on the 'Hide.

Spades... are spades.

Cheers,

Sirhr

Yes and no.

On one hand, a commie is a commie. Joe McCarthy taught me that. Oh, wiat...

But on the other hand, I know a lot of people, who are the farthest thing from communists, upstanding Americans, but feel a responsibility to their fellow man. Some Jew carpenter talked about that. If you lump those in with the commies youve done a dis service. Hell, I feel a considerable amount of that compassion and responsibility. The difference is that I think it needs to be done through the church(s), and other social organizations, and not mandated by the gub'mint nor contrary to its laws (unless those laws are commie or something).

The founding fathers spoke that there may be times we must stand against an unjust gubmint. They did. Sometimes there is a price for practicing virtue. remember what the Romans did to those who wouldnt forsake their faith. If your not willing ot pay it then stay home but dont whine when you get spanked.
 
As always, Maggot, your degree in Philosophy gives you a great foundation to question broad statements. And to a degree, you are right!

But if we are going to be lumped together as Nazi's... and worse (is there worse?) should we really be accepting the Communists warm, huggy, watered-down descriptions of themselves??? Because, well... that gets Orwellian. Newspeak... et al.

Your comment is right on... but at what point do we have to say "they have many guises... but the reality is that they are Communists."

I'm all for helping the downtrodden... it's part of being human. But when does the sentiment get hijacked? And turned into Totalitarianism. Which is what the Commies want. Even if they are too stupid to know that it's what they want?

Good thoughts my friend!

Cheers,

Sirhr
 
Fuck labels! If you're in this country and are against what this country was founded upon (Freedom & Liberty), then get the fuck out! Pull your bullshit in North Korea and see how far that gets you! So many men have died defending this country from Communism, Fascism, and Socialism and it makes me sick that it's just accepted now by the faggots on the Left and us folks who have an above room temperature IQ are pretty much forced to tolerate it.
 
Spade, shovel, e-tool, dirt mover, hole digger, Hispanic dragline...

Tool.... for a job.... move dirt.... and other shit.

Tool fits some of them critters pretty good...
Little humor, little truth, little sarcasm,

But, them "tools" will bury "US" if we let them...

Maggot has a point, but there is a point when goodness of heart and realism is turned to shit by do-gooders and people who see a different reality.
Some cannibals hate missionaries even though they did taste like chicken.

More shit, war, murder, mayhem, and devastation has been wrought through organized religions...

There is a very fine line..........

If I don't like your spade and type of dirt, there's gonna be a fight....

Life as I knew it, southern unreconstructed rebel redneck.
 
Commiecrat... = watered down term.

Even though I love it!

Communists. Commies.

I can also accept... Leninists, Stalinists, Reds, Commies, Trotskeyites, Red Russians... But since the least detrimental to wasting bandwith and keystrokes is Commies...

Well, there ya go!

SH Standard? Doesn't have to be. But it's going to be my standard.

Cheers,

Sirhr

There are no good Communists, not even dead Communists are good.
I snagged this pic from Quick and Dirties post, but seems appropriate.

I will have to dig it out and take a picture... but I have a T-shirt I bought... somewhere c. late 1980's....

Was called "Russian World Tour" and it had dates of every invasion and intervention... set up like some kind of U2 Bono-ass-pirate tourT-shirt. I still have it. I wore it. I was proud to wear it.

Cheers,

Sirhr

You should try watching Comrade Detective on Amazon.... to get your fill of patriotic statements about the glory of dying covered in blood for the Communist Utopia.

It's a fun show if you grew up in the cold war times, as it's every single stereotype about communists delivered with a straight face.

Totally wrong. You err both in motive and action. Communists by definition seek to create equality by force. The closest that carpenter came to that was saying we are all sinners, we will all be judged, and those who believe in Him would escape that judgement. Compulsion never enters into it, period. That’s equality of a sort, but not in fact. Jesus said motive is the only thing that matters. A communist beilives outcomes are all that matter.

Nothing could be further from Christianity than communism, which is why it’s destruction is always the first order of business.

You, and Sirh, are correct, there is a fine line between 'service' and 'subversion'.

I also agree about the mayhem caused by religion...but following the Truth does not have to be organized religion which you all know I have advised against from the beginning. I see a man hungry, I give him a fish. Hungry tomorrow? a fish. Hungry again, a fishing pole. Then he learns to fish and I dont have to give him one, or if he's too lazy to fish then he can starve. There are always limits.

Sorry, you err in reading comprehension. Try reading before running yap.

Being there is a rule against religious topics Ill stop there.

If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day...
If you teach a man to fish, you feed him for a lifetime...
If you talk to a starving man about fishing, then you are a consultant.

Been doing that for a year or two. They really get pissed.
 
evil enough to make me a firm believer in global nuclear war, it is winnable vs the alternative. Fuck all commies, every last one of these entitles fucks, they need killing not talking to.
I am not a fan of communism myself but damn Jerry, why are you in such a hurry to send everyone to heaven? You realize those commies will be there too? Heaven doesn't discriminate like you do.
Don't listen to people who go straight to calling people fascists. The right and left do it in equal amounts. The people in the middle need to find a way to communicate and move past those extremes.

Ive been saying that for years.

War, especially nuclear war, is so fucking crude.

If our way is really 'better' then we should find a way to out 'think' them rather than out 'bomb' them. Regan out 'spent' them but there are better ways I think.
 
I am not name calling, I have nothing at all to say to them, the time for talking ended about 1921, the only accommodation freedom, liberty and the Constitutional American way can have with these people is a 6 foot hole in the ground. You and Maggot can talk all you want, its you and people like you two who have eroded our Constitutional Republic and enabled the murder of hundreds of millions around the world in the name of Communism, and all the other names it gos by. You fucked over future generations by your "talking" and accepting and giving them an inch then cowering and rationalizing when they took a mile. You stood by and did not a goddam thing when they took over universities and Government. You grovel and beg for understanding, they sit back and lead the weak amongt us on into thinking there will be a peaceful end (Their name for you is useful idiot). In reality you let them infect every sector of our society and by doing so you will be part of the weakness responsible that will cause a hundred million dead in our own country. All in the name of the cant we get along philosophical and spineless weakness.

Dont take it personal you two but I been consistent on communism my whole adult life, even a more radical American after my first trip to East Germany as a 20 year old Buck sergeant in the early 80's them my trips down south.

Emotivism, Jerry. Youve got to get that under control. It will trick you.

You cant show me anywhere in any post where I approve of communism. I dont. It fucking sucks. I ran into some down at the rally in Charlottesville last summer and embarrassed them, Mother fuck a bunch f communists. Go nuke a nursery and have a good night. Maggot fucking out.

Understanding a position is the first step in creating an argument to why that position is wrong. There is no play screaming at people saying "You're wrong, you're wrong" without giving a reason why. I see that you're older and have more life experience and possibly dealth with communism first hand. I'm young and I'm still learning how the world works. Now in the light of Venezuela massacring their citizens, Cuba's communistic dictatorship leaving thousands of Cubans to starve and China's human rights violations against their own people, you and I can agree that communism has harmed more than it has given. What I will NOT stand for is you calling me a communist sympathizer just because I ask a couple questions. I will NOT stand for people who are vying for the chance for mass violence like you proposed when you stated "Not even, just killing them. Nothing else." and saying the global nuclear war is more favorable than discussion. The people who lead communist parties, communist revolutions, and communist governments have a lot to answer for but the people who they rule over are innocent.
 
You two are like the Joan Frikken rivers of enablement. Um yeah, I am okay with Nuke war, If I had the red button I would use it, I would nuke Russia and china as soon as I was sworn in.

Funny you two describe how horrid communism is then you want to talk with them, understand them, sad, that is how your generation has fucked up my country and endangered my kids future, but dont worry they are as emotive anticommunist as I am and my father and grandfather were.

Well man, you catch more flies with honey. I'd rather convert 1 billion communists into democratic capitalists than into nuclear ash. Difference of opinion then. I appreciate this conversation. It's been refreshing.
 
Jerry, you ever heard of something called “mutually assured destruction” or even “the Samson protocol”? I’m pretty sure if you nuked the 2 biggest countries on earth, we might not live to see the effect
 
Yea man conversation is great. It plants seeds for thought that grow into action. I see that you've got all the plants you can handle and that action is all that's left. That's great! And if that day comes, Jerry, where communists invade I'll be right there with you defending the homeland. I mean hell, that's part of the reason I'm on snipershide!
 
Converting communists is about as futile as alchemy
Hey man, we converted Russia into a capitalist country until Putin took over and turned into an oligarchical dictatorship. I bet we could turn over Cuba too in our lifetimes. China is deeply entrenched with that communism bs so all we can do there is prevent them from expanding by taking back control of the South China Sea
