    In a word: Never.

    They want to make everyone equal (except themselves), but never take into account we are all different and the only place all mankind is truly equal is in the graveyard. Socialists/Communists, whenever they get control, begin making people prematurely "truly equal" in the name of the people, of course.

    Their real motto: "Communism for thee, but not for me."

    "...spelling, grammar, punctuation, style, sentence structure." Indeed, and the loss of this knowledge is easy to see on almost any platform the written word has to be used. Many can't even get spelling and grammar correct on a simple meme. Often it's not hard to detect if an error was a simple typo or if the writer is just plain ignorant. I've seen comments on various topics that are so horrific in spelling and grammar that even if the writers are correct in expressing their viewpoints they are taken as idiots.

    I do have to add the Gulchers here are definitely at the top of the class for excellent usage, even when they slaughter the language deliberately to express satire, turn a humorous phrase, or drop a pun.

    Oh, "George Washington Zelenskiy" is spot on, LOL. "Zelenskyy, Zelensky, Zelenskiy" I find different spellings all over the place. Whatever.

    Out with C19, in with George Washington Zelenskiy. If a Republican president wins and is friendly to Ukraine, he will be a bastard in their eyes.

    My Mom observed over 20 years as an English teacher the dumbing down of the standards and students. When she retired she was not allowed to correct essays for spelling, grammar, punctuation, style, sentence structure. She had to slap an A on every paper, except for the ones she couldn't read. Girls especially like to write in "bubble cursive," where every letter looks like every other letter. Very pretty but impossible to read. Somehow she was allowed to reject those essays and make the students re-write them legibly.

    Yes we are dumbing down our populace for the slaughter.

    There's a book, I forgot the title, but it was written by a psychiatrist, who noticed that 80% of his patients were Democrats or leaned Left. He collaborated with other doctors and sociologists and they confirmed, the majority of mental health patients are Democrats.

    He even gave a tongue in cheek biochemical reason.

    Vegetarians and vegans are usually Democrats. They do not eat enough essential amino acids no matter how carefully they arrange their meals to have a "complete protein." They lack in Tryptophan, which converts to 5-hydroxy-tryptophan in the stomach, which goes into the brain and becomes 5-hydroxy-tryptamine which is:

    Serotonin.

    The feel-good neurochemical. It's no wonder these idiots are mentally ill. We could cure the disease of Liberalism by feeding them all some steak, chicken or fish. Force-feed them like a vaccine mandate. For their mental health. Save billions on mental healthcare costs.

    The excuse has always been, and I've debated more than a few leftists over the years, is "It was never done right because there were never enough resources available to do it correctly. The us, I was told, has all the resources to create a kinder and more fair society properly.

    The commie b*stards know what they are doing and are just blind to what the end results will truly be should they succeed.
    History has shown that those who supported and fought for the leftists were the first ones to be eliminated or neutralized via gulags etc.
    The new powers will not want to have anyone around who may challenge them in the future.
    Useful idiots do not survive very long in a new regime.

    Left is just a kind term for calling them the Communists they are. When will we learn to just start calling them Commies?

    The Leftists will never admit what will really happen if they fulfill their fondest dreams. They cannot be reasoned with. Reason is anathema to a leftist, tearing large, ragged holes in their dystopian pipedreams. Nothing will stop this insanity unless we teach each and every upcoming generation how to think logically, use reason and take nothing for granted.

    I believe that they realize what they want. I believe that they are trying to hide the actual name of it from those to stupid understand what it is, you know the vast majority of Leftist voters.

    Sadly many Republicans are little more than watered downed Democrats and are willing to compromise on anything in order to not face the push back from the Left.

    Leftists abandoned Reason long ago. Trying to understand them rationally is an effort in futility unless you - also - abandon Reason. Their focus is on the short-term and what makes them feel good in the moment. They see Communism not from a long-term standpoint but from a short-term one - with themselves not playing the part of a common peon but as part of the ruling class. Leftists deceive themselves into believing they are part of the .01% which will become the ruling class while completely ignoring that the history of every implementation of Communism has come with a PURGE that kills off a large part of the potential ruling class. Power doesn't like competition.

    Leftists are also LAZY - they believe that they shouldn't have to work to earn what they consume but that someone else should labor on their behalf to support them. They inherently seek a return to feudalism - or even outright slavery - and the complete destruction of the middle class.

    Leftists do NOT believe in human rights or equal rights. They believe in the power of the aristocracy and that having power gives them automatic moral license to use that power however they choose. They also frown on the concept of personal responsibility because that would mean that their actions would have consequences - and leftists wildest dream is to divest consequence from choice.

    It is all vainglory. Such a mindset requires a complete abandonment of reality - including critical thinking and logic. This results in their being unable to rationally function - including putting forth rational arguments. Their attempts to blame others for what they view as undesirable consequences stems from their irrational desire to divorce cause and effect and usually results in the type of behavior like temper tantrums we normally see in three-year-olds.

    Furthermore, the abandonment of rational thought also comes with increasing self-deception, as this is the only way they can psychologically deal with the dichotomy between their delusions and the reality which forcefully intrudes upon their daydreams. They refuse to accept the fact that truth IS - and can not be wished away simply because it is inconvenient to a life based on passing pleasures.

    "What they want is Communism?" The Leftists are Communist. We need to wrap our minds around the fact that all Leftists (Democrats) are anti-American. Most of us believe in live and let live. We are wrong! The Left means to destroy, enslave, or kill us. Wrap your mind around the truth.

    The central planners know it. The useful idiots don't.

    Seems to me their leaders are more than ready to become commissars. They've got the dishonesty, vindictiveness and corruption down pretty well.

    What we're witnessing is the result of the dumbing down (purposeful) of several generations in our public school system. They've been conditioned to expect to be told what to think, and haven't the foggiest notion that facts are not whatever the government chooses them to be.

    As one example, take Zelensky. The Ukraine leader, when he had a good relationship with Trump, was evil incarnate according to all those who would tell the public. Now that he's in charge of a threatened nation, he's another George Washington, at least. Flips in position like that are accepted without a thought, and shouldn't be, but conditioning makes people ready to accept whatever those in power tell them.

    Communism insists on the abolishing of private property.
    However, all that property will remain.
    Someone will need to control it . . .
    The Leftist, by "virtue" of their superior intellect (they will doggedly work to convince you of this -- consider the refrain "Follow the Science" [TM]) and their very large hearts (They Care [TM] more than you) will insist that they will control the property and disposition of the resources.
    Socialism, and by implication, Communism, only appears to "work" until you have either destroyed or paralyzed other people's property.
    The whole thing is a downward spiral into dependency and degradation.

    The Leftist is so intoxicated on envy and the desire for the control of others that they will follow that spiral to their own doom, much in the manner of a junkie.

    An individual that owns their own life (Libertarian, Capitalist, Individualist) needs to stand up to their nonsense and refuse to comply. Better still, for Individuals to coalesce in the fight against the envy-intoxicated dogma by showing up at City Council, Planning, School Board meeting and work to turn the tide against the onslaught of insanity.

    Seriously? The goal is to destroy. Better yet, study Rand's essay The Left: Old and New. Better than that, read the whole book: Return of the Primitive.

    Are you kidding? They know this, clearly. They want power, as long as they are the ones in power. They fail to see, that such power will corrupt, just like it did in Russia, and what they hate most will be instituted.

    Communism works for the few of them who are in power at the expense of everyone else.

    Never, that is, they know they want Communism. They just won't admit it out loud. This is why they say "Politically Correct." That's a code phrase for Democratic party. They also don't care if Communism works, they are determined to ruin what we have because they have what it takes to ruin: LIFE IS NOT FAIR!!! The single most destructive statement ever. Of course it's not fair and it never will be fair. We have to do our best in the face of the unfairness of life and accept that we can't win. Nobody wins.

    Postmodernism is the gateway drug to Marxism. Once you pummel an idiotic college student in the grievance studies department with the moral relativism and lack of absolute truth asserted by postmodern thinking, you've softened them up so badly they'll eat shit and call it a gourmet brownie. These college students are so pampered and isolated from brutal reality that they are easily manipulated into hating everything that is good and willing for it to be torn down out of basic human jealousy.

    Professors are war criminals. They plant the seeds of war in the minds of youth. Study Chemistry, Medicine, Math, Bricklaying. Don't study the Grievance Studies. All you get is debt, jealousy and destructive anger. Generations of stupid students voting for their own destruction.

    Professors are war criminals. I like that statement.
