The Truth

Scandinavia is Socialist and Other Leftist Myths Debunked _ by The National Interest

'socialist ideas gaining traction, such as “free” college tuition, government-run health care, and a guaranteed income even for able-bodied people who don’t work' don't happen without heavy taxes being imposed upon those that do the work. Workers wages is extremely low in socialistic countries. That class experiences no real economic changes.
'socialism’s promises of fixing every social ill, the indoctrination present in our schools and universities' are false promises;

'In truth, socialism has failed everywhere it has been tried for over a century, from the former Soviet Union to the democratic socialism of Israel, India, and Great Britain after World War II to present-day Venezuela.'

'Like Denmark, Sweden, Finland, and Norway all rely on free-market capitalism to finance their expansive welfare systems.'

'In truth, socialists only care about the collective, not the individual. In Maoist China, children as young as 12 were subject to capital punishment, women were forced to work in coal mines, and workers were harassed with threats of prison if they were late.'

'Actually, true socialism depends upon the dictatorship of a military leader or a political party. Socialist leaders promised to bring down dictators only to replace them with their own Marxist dictatorships in places like China, North Korea, Vietnam, and Laos.'

'Marx was wrong about nearly everything. Nearly 200 years after “The Communist Manifesto,” the nation state has not withered away. Capitalism, not socialism, rules the global economy. Workers have not turned into revolutionaries but entrepreneurs. And private property—rather than being rejected—is a cornerstone of every prosperous country.'

'For 70 years, the Soviet Union tried to suppress people’s innermost desires for freedom and for improving their lot in life. In practice, socialism depends on constant policing by the state and huge prison camps to coerce people and maintain power.


We must work to enlighten our children and grandchildren. We must be there to counter the falsehoods they are learning from professors, the media, and pop culture, or we will surely lose another generation to this poisonous ideology.'

Why aren't they (people above in the cartoon) acting more like Democrats? If they wish to be communists, why don't they call their party a Communist Party? Democracy has always stood for capitalism. there is no such thing as a Socialistic Democratic Party. Its purposefully misleading.🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️
