Ahriman isn't so much ranting against socialism as he is ranting against what he imagines socialism to be. Ahriman isn't so much supporting capitalism as he is supporting what he imagines capitalism to be.

The imagination is a glorious thing.

Au contraire, Ahriman is simply trolling, simply because it is the only activity on the internet that he can do as he has no knowledge.

Americans live wild and free, everyone out for themselves. Norwegians live more like domesticated animals. Not that there's anything wrong with that. It's clearly working out for them.

Chaos is not freedom. Norwegians are more free to suffer less than Americans are.

If this is his caliber of trolling, then he is even dumber than he might be if these are earnest statements.

Well, some of us did, anyway. Wink
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Yeah I guess you're right, riding a roller coaster is very chaotic but you are not free to leave your seat until the ride is over.
