Professor shoots himself in the arm in protest of Trump.

 

Guess who carried a gun illegally, into a place that was off limits to legal guns, and discharged the gun in public? That guy.

 

And after all that he still missed! Well, more that he was just aiming too low.

Jim Carry is back. No longer is he painting sad landscapes, sporting a massive homeless-man beard, and waxing poetically about depression.

 

No, now he's back to Ace Ventura levels of crazy. But this time, instead of saving animals, he has decided to... save Socialism?

 

Um...

Quote

"People are hunting dogs and cats in the streets, and pigeons in the plazas to eat," Ramon Muchacho, mayor of the Caracas district of Chacao, said this month in a tweet that was reported in many newspapers.

 

 

Jim, buddy, pal. Wow. 

 

Also, the fact that his net worth is 50 million dollars MORE than Bill Mahr's, and he's squawking about Socialism? Yeeahh.... Sure, buddy. Sure.

Being a Patriotic American, I would say, the USA is so awesome, our Socialists will get it right this time because they are really smart...       But we all know that's bullshit, if you think Socialism is a good thing, you are in fact stupid enough to think socialism is a good thing, thus dooming the whole endeavor to privileged lefty leaders stealing all the food and starving the rest of the people.

That something that gets said a lot, then?

 

It's a misuse of a quote that's regurgitated periodically by people in favor of gutting military spending.

 

The quote being misused was about Abrams being upgraded to the SEPv2 to keep the Lima tank plant a functional entity.

I think Crowder doesn't understand why there's a lot of talk of socialism right now. It's pretty simple, Millenials are sick of being shat on and exploited by Baby Boomers, and they are fed up and ready to vote to just take their money.

 

I hope that doesn't happen, but it would take one hell of a collective act of contrition on the part of Boomers to prevent it at this point, I think.

Hmmm. Doing a little math, if Jim Carrey were to relinquish 2/3 of his net worth ($100 mil), he could effectively double the average income of almost 125,000 Venezuelans for a whole year... except we we all know rich socialists never actually practice socialism, so this would never happen. 

 

Edit: whoops, late night/hungry posting is not in my best interest. I mistook the average salary for average daily wage. Recalculating, he could double the monthly salary ($1.61 [April of this year] to $3.2) of over 5 million Venezuelans (~5,175,000, if my math is correct this time) for a whole year, or roughly 1/6th of the entire population of Venezuela…

I'm somewhat more optimistic than you are about this situation. I think the failings of social security will leave a bad taste in the mouths of most people.

Hey, let's run a story that incorrectly implies wrongdoing on the part of our political opponents, then after it's peaked and people have moved on to other news we can quietly issue a correction that only a small percentage of the original readership will see!

What is your definition of 'socialism' exactly?

 

Because I've learnt from bitter experience that what people refer to as 'socialism' differs wildly.

To an American conservative, almost any program that uses taxes to pay non-government-employees or contractors is socialism, because American conservatives believe in the slippery slope principle that any successful move leftward will only result in more movement leftward.
