If you call yourself or your party SOCIALIST in the name of the party then I tend to believe it. Democratic Socialist = Mamdani. Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution = Mao. Year Zero = Pol Pot. Homeland or Death = Castro

Listen to what leftist call themselves.

I use an aggregate source that provides multiple sources for each story. It ranks the sources for their bias, so I can understand the different perspectives.

I recall a story about a family that was supposedly told to leave a far food restaurant because they had trump shirts on. It was very interesting how the same story was reported differently.

Wow, try to actually communicate with you and you can help but be a dick. Duly noted.

Yes they have sources from over the spectrum. There are other sources than fox news and OAN. that actually report the news instead of just opinions.

Ground News https://share.google/DWdmJBZRGDXDcMiqs

I also use the AP app and other sources.

But mostly I just read the news from any source other than fox.

So what liberal sources do you consume regularly?

Sounds about right.

At this point, my main goal is that he not send thousands of Americans to fight in some war that ultimately has to do with his ego. If we can avoid that, I'll consider his 2nd presidency dignity soil to die ? a victory.

I’m on record that I think you’re a good guy and father. I don’t hate Dems. I dislike leftist and terrorist loving anti Semites.

I don't see myself as loyal to either party, that's why I use news services that help keep me from going down the rabbit hole.

I don't dislike anyone because of political positions. I try, thought I'm sure I fail, to respond to the topics and not the person.

How can you possibly be a lawyer? Either you are playing a character on this site, you are posting drunk, or you had someone else take your bar exam.

Are you saying that you read each of these daily?

I typically go to one of the aggregate sources then follow the stories that interest me. I don’t go specifically to MSNBC or Wall Street Journal, but I may end up there.

Being a lawyer, I'd imagine that you read faster than I do, so maybe you visit 10 sources a day. I typically visit about 3-4 then follow the stories to the primary sources.

No. Typically, I'll use a short cut and go to a site like realclearpollitics.com which features articles from both sides, allowing me to read back to back articles on the same subject matter.

It ain't how fast you read. It's how well you understand. Don't think you should worry about his reading speed. He's like the days you drive home and realize you don't remember a thing about the drive.

I've been too simplistic re my comments on the NAZI party being a socialist party.

National Socialism was an alternative to Marxism and capitalism. The 1920 National Socialist Program - the "25 Points" - included demands such as the nationalization of industries, land reform and the abolition of unearned income.

Nazi socialism favored a technocratically- managed economy with the subordination of individual interests to the common good of the nation.

The Nazi government did not own the means of production, but it did exercise control over industries creating a managed economy.

The Nazi ideology also focused on the collective well being of the "German Volk" with a collectivists orientation - similar to socialism.

CLEARLY, Nazism evolved to essentially embodying the ideology and beliefs of one man and his Mein Kampf. That's where the German "living space" and hatred and extermination of the Jews moves to the front of the party's ideology. That's not really left or right ideology.

Bottom line is that Adolf Hitler's ideology is unique and a mixed bag unlike the Communists dictators I've listed.

True. The antisemitism has always been more about Christians of every ilk. What countries Jews weren't kicked out of generally persecuted them or circumscribed their rights. Review the origin of ghetto and beyond the pale.

They'd still feel the same way except for their association of the country of Israel with the phantasmagorical myths of the Second Coming. They still don't care about the Jews as anything but a road marker.
