And many, many imbeciles were blasé enough to think that nayzees and commos had been banished to the dusty pages of history. Yet here we are (again) …

“For us in Russia, communism is a dead dog, while, for many people in the West, it is still a living lion.”

Maybe he ‘believes’ it in something like the way ppl sucked into a cult ‘believe’ in the tenets of the cult.

Have you *seen* his blog?
Stop me if you’ve heard this one before.
Conservatives are not conservative because by opposing the changes of the Left they have stopped being conservative and really become reactionaries.
No really, here’s the quote.

this stance of mine was developed in reaction to the direction of modern “conservatism”, which is actually reactionary with very little in the way of actual conservatism at its core. The culture war was lost by the right decades ago, and the things they want to nominally “conserve” don’t exist any more, like the primacy of the nuclear family, an unchallenged patriarchy, untrammeled exploitative capitalism and a strong Church.

When you stop laughing at that, you will be scratching your head wondering how monty adopts two different meanings of the word “conservative” in the same sentence without noticing his own switcheroo.

We can get all day about trade relations with China and how their regime influences us economically.

However, none of it matters to the average Australian, or anyone in the world for that matter.
Money talks, ask the average aussie if they are willing to cop a dramatic decrease in standard of living to reduce or cease business with China?
If all goods made in China were to suddenly cost 2-3x more because we changed who we import from.

The shackles we’re in are of our own making, that’s true, but people will not voluntarily pay more for everything just to fight the communists…

rabz:

“free trade will convert them to democracy” yet “we were sucked in”
Yes, it happens. I’ve never trusted the evil communist bastards (BIRM), if that’s any consolation, Arks.

For myself, it was a hope that democratic values could arise in China.
We’re allowed to hope, are we not?
It was also a fear that China, with a population generally smarter than us – according to IQ levels and I’m not saying they’re right – bloody hard wukkas, and an internal market of 1.5 Billion, could drown the West in mass produced consumer goods if they ever got their shit together.

It’s not about changing his mind (sic). You’re so pure. The conservatives are fucked because they are so pure, above the fray. To beat the left you don’t convince them because that assumes they’re capable of reason and rational responses. You have to beat them, literally. As soon as the left dominate society is stuffed. Its an endless battle; but you keep sipping your sherry.

Just saw this.. since I don’t spend my whole time here.

You’re wrong! So wrong it’s almost criminal, especially for someone as intelligent as you.
Conservatives are fucked because they argue and fight each other, from a point of pedantic purity, rather than ACT(!) against the established leftard invasion of our society.
Arguing with trolls here achieves nothing, except for ruining the OT and making it unreadable (BIRM).

You have to beat them, literally. As soon as the left dominate society is stuffed.

You beat them with words and insults? How did that work out? Tired of winning yet?

The left already dominates society, you’re a bit late to that party.

After their decades of wildly successful institutional infiltration and moral debasement, non-leftards only have two options:

1) For a relatively quick result (years): force, not words. We are allegedly the silent, moral majority, so we would win, if we first manage to stop waffling into the wind and attack each other.
Leftards act in packs, cohesively and aggressively. They win, and will keep winning. Our division and rhetorical purity has been political death.

2) Centuries of decline and the eventual reckoning and re-birth. After the people of what-used-to-be-the-West get sick of eating shit and massacre the established authorities.
Don’t hold your breath for this one.

You lot are the pure ones.
Believing that, through insults and clever rhetoric, you can convince people like Montz of the error of their ways. How naive is that?
The failure of this approach is obvious. Here. Every day. It’s so fucking obvious that I’m amazed that I have to mention it.

BTW, you can have the sherry. Only Cognac and Grappa for me.

Fauci Agency Grant Tied to Wuhan and Gain of Function was under FBI Investigation! #shorts Judicial Watch

Yes, and Wussiagate makes a return to the stage with a new Leftwing narrative. Trump was hiding nuclear secrets in order to sell them to the Wussians.

Didn’t Bill Clinton approve the sale of missile re-entry vehicle technology to China? If so, how do the two compare? Will he and Trump get “his and his” electric chairs?

Under Xi , China is pretty much a fascist regime. It’s not communist in the real sense. The ironic thing is that we saw, over the space of 25 plus years, a communist regime seamlessly converting from communist to fascist . Meanwhile the Western left is willfully blind to this move from one totalitarian room to another in the same house.

We all know he’s a brilliant, malignant troll.

Aww Gilas, you say the nicest things.

We’ve learnt that as soon as you see anything approximating a fist, you will rush over and batter it relentlessly with your eye sockets.

My brother thought it funny to put out his first and ask me to run into it.

If I was Muttley, I would have.
