Given the choice between Castro, Khomeini, and Trump, the last is the worst of the three.

Posted by Scrabbleship on Wed Aug 8 18:23:53 2018

I've heard a lot of rhetoric lately about how the US is on a path to its own doom and the two examples that come up are that the 2010s US are on the same route as 1950s Cuba and 1970s Iran. And the more I think about it, the more I think that as much as the US has demonized what came out of those Revolutions that what the US is going through is far, far worse.

Castro and Khomeini at least brought healthcare to their people, improved access to literacy and education, made human development strides, and for the average person who was suffering under Bautista/the Shah gave them sort of breadcrumbs. This is better than what Trump and the Republicans are capable of doing as they are breeding tyranny without any sort of concessions to the common person.

Did people die? Yes. But given the chance the GOP would want liberals to be put down if they could get away with it and one sympathetic to the Cuban and Iranian revolutions could see that the dying that happened was akin to expelling a body of disease instead of letting the disease get worse as the current US regime is doing.

Did Castro and Khomeini do unnecessarily harsh things? Yes. Holding Cubans hostage on an island was/is wrong and mandatory hijabs is also wrong. At the same time, what the GOP and Trump are doing in the US are just as bad and may get much worse.

By the way, if you voted for Trump:

1: You are a monster.
2: You are a piece of shit.
3: You should be divorced of all you have.
4: You should lose your sufferage.
5: You hate women.
6: You hate non-white people.
7: You hate non-Christians less compliant Jews
8: You hate the LGBTQ community.
9: You should be grabbed by the pussy (or dick).
10: All America is going through is ALL YOUR FAULT.
11: FUCK YOU!

No, Castro literally slaughter thousands of his people and was a dictator. Just because his was left, doesn't make him a "good" dictator. All dictators are assholes.

Khomeini is no saint either, hardline republic that is just in the last years fighting for moderates, while more moderate than Saudi Arabia, that nation is no angel.

When I saw "compliant Jews" I thought of kosher and restrictions on certain food items like pork or combining dairy and meat. I believe that many Jews who are friends of mine can reverse their health problems by changing their diets.

Right now even the most moderate Republicans in Congress are enablers of Trump. Democrats in Congress have always been far more independent minded than the current set of Republicans. Consider that Clinton couldn't get some of his agenda past Democrats, while Reagan and the Bushes could some through.

Voting "for the good of the party" is an outdated concept. Unless you are one of the people who constantly have their hands out and they realize that they need the free gravy train following their way. And yes, that works both ways from millionaires getting tax cuts to welfare leeches.

No, it’s not. If you want to vote for an individual for president, be my guest, but individual legislators are cogs in a machine. You are really only voting for whichever party you want to have the majority in Congress.

That would depend on YOUR definition of abusive, wouldn't it? Calling people crazy is abusive. Telling people to "STFU and die" or telling them"Die Bitch" is abusive. As usual, what are some considered abusive becomes a function of which part of the political spectrum the "abuser" dwells.

Insulting a widow by ridiculing her dead husband is abusive. Berating that same woman's perceived appearance is abusive. Accusing people here of wrongdoing without evidence is abusive. Posting demonstrable falsehoods over and over again, such as your Uranium One garbage, is abusive. Questioning people's disability, even after having met the poster in person and seen said disability for yourself, is abusive. Smearing people who disagree with you as mentally ill is abusive.
