Re: A Ukrainian Soldier After a Russian Attack
No... they're not. On the linear political spectrum, liberalism (democrats) falls slightly to the left of center, and conservativism (republicans) falls slightly to the right of center. Extreme liberalism is communism, and extreme conservativism is fascism. Democrats are just as much communists as republicans are fascists. There are some such extremists... but a vast majority... no. Honestly, of the two sides, conservatives have likely had a larger percentage of extremism filing their ranks since Trump. I can't stand either party, as latching on to any of them is playing into the hands of those in power, giving us the illusion of choice while ultimately increasing their control over us... partially by pitting us against each other when both sides are ultimately in the pocket of the same wealthy and corporations. George Carlin nailed it. |

Re: A Ukrainian Soldier After a Russian Attack
And what do you think the sociopolitical, philosophical, and economic ideology is on Russia then, if not now having to returned to their version of communism? Granted, as far as I can see, there's never been a truly communist country. Incredibly simplified... but communism is meant to be structurally a one socioeconomic class system. Russia/USSR, as with the rest, has always had a ruling class and a lower class at least. When Putin dissolved the free press and other freedoms last year, it was a return to many of the polices inherent to the old USSR.
