Its written in almost the same vitriolic way that paedophiles are in england why?
Socialism when done right is a great boon to society at large.
So why the hate guys.
Because to the Republican right, and, alas, to a lot of people here, socialism=Those Goddamn Soviets.
"Those Goddamn Soviets" have souls too!
The hate only comes from people not understanding socialism (and buying into a ton of repugnant bullshit (mostly anti-chinese or anti-russian) propaganda)
And I just swallowed a piece of gum just now, making me feel special indeed. Relevant? No. Makes me feel special? Yus -.-
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
