If we are too defeat socialism/Marxism, It's important to understand those things that weaken it.

1. A robust growing economy
2. Sunlight of public officials
3. Fair, free elections
4. A free press
5. A strong religious sector/morals
6. An armed society
7. An educated society
8. A constitutional Republic
9. A free market
10. Free speech including "hate" speech
11. A strong jurisprudence controlled by the jury system
12. A strong middle class
13. Limited government
14. A classless society
15. Private property
16. Ability to protest government
18. Privacy
19. Strong families
20. Independence

There are others but those are the top 20 IMO. It's not a coincidence that the left has been attacking/seeking to destroy all 20 relentlessly for the last 100+ years.
* some confusion on the "classless society". I was going to put titleless society to explain it's a lack of "nobility" that weakens socialism/marxism but I doubted many would understand. So, I used classless instead. Maybe a non tiered society would be a better way of saying it.

People need to stop this self defeating attitude when it comes to Spygate and other corruption. I can't think of a time in human history when the evil doers will self police themselves. That isn't the point. If you are expecting that to happen you will be disappointed.
Our government is corrupt, the federal agencies are corrupt, and the politicians are corrupt. The swamp is the swamp. The goal at this point is to drain the swamp. That can only happen by electing more people like Trump and having them firing people from positions of influence.
I hope that also includes indictments and putting people in jail. But that can not be the only way you measure success. If it is, you will be disappointed. The entire upper levels of the FBI has been replaced. They have been forced out in disgrace. FISA abuse as been unearthed,

"The prosecutors, led by John H. Durham, the United States attorney in Connecticut, have interviewed about two dozen former and current F.B.I. officials"

Review of Russia Inquiry Grows as F.B.I. Witnesses Are Questioned nyti.ms/2J3ZhLD
"The number of interviews shows that Mr. Durham’s review is further along than previously known. "

"His team has interviewed private Ukrainian citizens, a Justice Department spokeswoman has said"
"He has not spoken with Peter Strzok, a former top counterintelligence official who opened the inquiry; the former director James B. Comey or his deputy, Andrew G. McCabe; or James A. Baker, then the bureau’s general counsel."

I don't understand why some people feel the need for validation from the leftist fake media. I can not grasp this desire some have that the fake media admit they on the left are losers. Why do they worry about what the fake media says? Why do they feel this need...
....to be liked by the media? Why when Trump has a great victory do some automatically say but the fake media will say this or that? Why do they give a flying fuck what the NYT or CNN says? Why do they allow these garbage media companies to control the Narrative?
Why are they always talking about what the WAPO or NYT or PBS or MSNBC says? Who cares what they say. By caring you give them power over you. Power they have not earned. Power they have shown incapable of exercising responsibly.

So #marxism is trending thanks to a bunch of hard right boot lickers who think Marxists advocate Trump style protectionism (it doesn’t, nor did Marx).
Because many people probably don’t know what #Marxism is, thanks to the ignorant pompous pronouncements of redbaiting buffoons of both liberal and conservative stripes, I intend to tweet a few basics here. Please feel to share with anyone you need to educate.
The basic premise of #Marxism is that a capitalist economy needs to continually grow in orrder to function. Because the business cycle is a real thing, that’s impossible and so Capitalism repeatedly goes through periods of crisis and collapse.

@_attlee #socialism #Marxism Presumably you and Ms. Attlee are college graduates and possibly even possess graduate degrees. Yet your and her question betrays a shocking lack of education, comparable to someone asking where's the error in Ptolemaic astronomy.
I will first quote Marx on what the labor theory of value is and then offer two sets of refutations of it. (BTW, I use value and price as equivalent terms.)
WHAT MARX SAID: “The value of one commodity is to the value of any other, as the labour-time necessary for the production of the one is to that necessary for the production of the other.” [Google this to confirm it.]

Socialists do not realize that capitalism’s privately owned means of production benefit everyone who buys the products of those means of production. Thus privately owned auto plants, steel mills, and iron mines benefit the buyers of automobiles. Likewise for all other products.
The socialists’ mentality is trapped in the Dark Ages, when production was not yet for the market but for the personal use of the producers, an arrangement that the socialists seem to think was superior, since it was “production for use” rather than “production for profit.”
Under capitalism, the private owners of means of production see profitable opportunities and on their own initiative use their means of production to produce things that others, often millions and tens of millions of others, want to buy.

#Socialism #Marxism The asset-owning billionaires work for me and everyone else with any money whatever to spend and which the billionaires want to earn, because to earn that money, they have to produce products that ordinary people want to buy.
#Capitalism and its market economy are far more democratic than #democracy. Under the latter, countless distinct choices are scooped up and buried under just one choice, once every several years: Do you want candidate A or candidate B? (Under #socialism, it’s A or don’t vote.)
Under #capitalism every dollar spent for every distinct good or service is a vote for that good or service. To continue being supplied, it must receive enough votes to cover its costs and a competitive rate of profit. If it doesn’t, its production will be cut back.

[Thread] The -isms: a very generalized guide. I've wanted to do this for a long time, sparked by how often "#socialism" is thrown about as a catch-all for a variety of vastly different philosophies. I hope BEGIN a #Threaducation here. So, let's talk about this.
First off, let me be CLEAR: These are complex ideas and I am just trying to give a brief overview of the basic distinctions for those who don't know and (hopefully) for those who throw all these ideas together. I make no real endorsements, just try to point out all sides.
It is my FERVENT hope that #AcademicTwitter, #Twitterstorians, political scientists, and philosophers will step up and contribute to this #Thread or use it as a jumping off point for deeper explanations (and/or corrections) of my admittedly general summaries.

I'll make this one quick because you might turn off you TV/Computer/Phone before I even get to the end of the thread. Of course the content of television programming has an effect on the way people think, but what about the signals.
How ironic that the old cliche adage so many mothers said to their children, "Don't sit too close to the TV" actually has quite a bit of merit in light of these patents and the claims they make about how television broadcasts signals effect your brain. I know my mom had no idea.
So, not only do you have to worry about how the content of what you are watching will effect your thoughts, you actually have to consider there may be some less obvious physical manipulation in the actual signals coming from the tube. steemit.com/science/@anarc…
