I would agree, although I suspect that you can't differentiate communism from fascism, much less the fact that fascism was polar opposite of communism (and especially Marxism).

Maybe it's time colleges start paying taxes if they are going to forward a political ideology?
I have heard the left suggest the same from churches.

And socialism? I though we progressed away from slavery?

No, but you do seem...how should I put this..."overly concerned."

And since when is being educated in political science mean someone is fascinated with a partcular set of ideologies, some of which are incompatible with others?

Why are you so ANGRY?

Historically speaking, fascism , socialism, and the Nazi Party are very closely associated.

So much for history classes sinking in and foolish behavior NOT repeating itself.

Intellectual smarty pants at their best. And they vote. But they're "intellectuals", based on some liberal/socialistic "ideology" that works better in Europe than in the US... and their votes supposedly mean more in some effed up liberal world - doesn't matter how stupid and clueless they really are.
Your post says absolutely nothing. No reason, no facts, no substance. "They're stupid". Wow, how enlightening. Feel better after your rant?

Perhaps your response is precisely why we have so many problems. You don't offer solutions, you don't educate, all you do is demean, slander, generalize, demonize, shake your head, wipe your hands, and walk away.

At least these young people are doing something. It may or may not work out, no one knows. Maybe this time, somebody like these people will level the wildly uneven playing field of our economy and make everybody happy. Seems to me you think our economy is something we just have to tolerate instead of work to improve upon.

I'm not angry, just concerned and don't want you radicals getting your way and destroying this country so you can steal from from people who are responsible just so you can continue to be irresponsible. Got a problem with that?

And by WHAt yardstick am I a radical?

I think you are a little overly emotional about this subject.

What makes you think you make more money or pay more taxes than I do?

Personally, Noodles & Company badly needs an expanded menu. Their options are so limited that unless you're in the mood for four very disparate tastes, you're out of luck. They, like every company, need to listen to their employees instead of threatening them with dismissal. I may not agree with everything in the video, but I applaud those who take action against any sense of unfairness they encounter. The opposite approach is no strategy at all.

Corporations and the elite are stealing trillions from us by privatizing the profits and socializing the losses. The country is being destroyed by them, not a bunch of young 'radicals'. These young people are waking up to that reality and are making the effort to push it into the light of day for everyone else to see. I'm sorry you don't like that, but I personally would much rather have activism that fixes a broken apple cart than a population of do-nothings who have no interest in changing the tires.
