You're deluded by right wing propaganda that calls anyone they disagree with nazi's or marxists. You don't have the intellect to think for yourself.

Could you give us a name of this "Marxist"?

I'm sure your read or listened to some right wing crap media site that told you all about it today or yesterday.

Thats the one line people use to defend these extreme left ideology's. "you don't know what a Marxist is" The fact is they are so similar that the words are almost interchangeable, like "racist" or "nazi".. there meaning is a little different but for practical uses they can be used interchangeably.

Wow. This couldn't be further from the truth. Try a community college. They might be able to help.

It wasn't a line, it was a question.

You just proved that you don't know enough about your argument to talk intelligently about it. And in your opening line, your ridiculous claim is just like a right winger who thinks that because the left is NOT what s/he is, it must be out to destroy the country. Extremism such as this cannot be reasoned with. You appear to be here to feel better about your view rather than consider an opposing one. I would imagine that this helps you feel confident in reaching the ridiculous conclusion that the world is either with you or against you. I would venture that you actually WANT everybody to think that Marxism, socialism, communism are worse than Nazism. The poll results should provide you a wake up call that you aren't in the majority. There is no redeeming value to Nazism but the Marxism, socialism, communism triumvirate actually do have worthwhile goals.

you are the one that called me out for saying they are similar so the burden of proof is on you to prove otherwise.
