Socialists promise "equality" will solve everything.

But equal misery is still misery.

Still, they've convinced millions that being equally poor is better than being unequally prosperous.

How did we fall for this? 🧵 Let's look at what "equality" really means in practice.

France and Myanmar have identical income inequality levels according to the World Bank.

But: France = wealthy, developed Myanmar = 40% live below the poverty line

Clearly, "equal" doesn't always mean "better."

Ayn Rand predicted in the 1960s everything happening now.

Campus extremists. Environmental policies advocating human poverty. Race as a criterion for everything. Hatred of success.

This isn't a description of 2025. It's what she warned about 60 years ago. 🧵 In The New Left: The Anti-Industrial Revolution (1971), Rand collected essays from the 1960s describing a disturbing trend:

Students solving political disputes through brute force instead of logic, reason, and persuasion.

Sound familiar?

Authoritarians never say “we’re taking away your freedom.”

They say:

→ “We’re protecting democracy.”
→ “We’re ensuring your safety.”
→ “We’re fighting disinformation.”

Do you fall for it? 🧵 It’s all about the language game.

They didn’t say the Berlin wall was to stop people from escaping socialism…

They called it the “Anti-Fascist Barrier.”

Progressive movements literally only exist because of free speech protections.

Now they're cheering for censorship.

They're about to destroy the very thing that created them.

Isn't this the definition of irony? 🧵 Every major progressive win in America started as "dangerous" speech that authorities tried to silence. [1] [2]

Your campus militants skip this history lesson. Probably because they don't know it.

Let's check the receipts:

Everything bad you've heard about nuclear energy is a myth.

Nuclear is safer than wind. Cleaner than solar. More reliable than both.

Yet environmentalists hate it more than coal🧵. If you believe we're facing climate doom, nuclear energy is literally our best shot to avoid it.

But decades of fear-mongering have turned the safest energy source into the most hated.

Time to bust some myths:

“I support liberty more than you"

Liberty isn't a cult. Stop treating it like one.

Here's why dogmatic libertarians are becoming liberty's worst enemy 🧵 These days, it's like a race to see who can be the most "libertarian/classical liberal."

Grounded in dogmatism, they act like there's only one way to justify liberty, one way to support it, or one way to advance it.

They're more like Marxists than liberty-lovers.

Communist parties' rule have killed something between 90-150 million people in the last century.

Every single time the same pattern happens: Mass death → Economic collapse → People fleeing → "That wasn't real communism!"

Isn't it? So let's check the receipts 🧵 The Soviet Experiment: "Workers' paradise," they said.

Stalin's policies killed around 20 million people through purges, famines, and labor camps. [1]

The Holodomor alone starved 3-7 million Ukrainians in just two years. [1]

But hey, at least everyone was equally miserable, right?

Don't shame Milton Friedman: Stop being terrible at selling liberty.

Here's a 4-step guide to actually persuading people instead of just arguing with them 🧵 Classical liberals often get frustrated that their ideas aren't popular.

While statist ideologies offer utopian promises, liberals find themselves with the demanding role of conveying reality.

Let's face it: this contrast is a difficult pill to swallow.

Your history teacher lied to you.

Stalin didn't fight fascism—he tried to JOIN the Axis and divide the world with Hitler.

Here's what really happened 🧵 Many know about the Soviet-German Non-Aggression Pact.

Modern socialists claim it was just to "delay the war."

What they won't tell you: While the free world fought fascism, Stalin was actively trying to join the Axis.

Your professor won't tell you this:

The West didn't just practice slavery—it's the civilization that ENDED slavery worldwide.

Here's the history they're hiding from you 🧵 Slavery existed everywhere for thousands of years.

As Thomas Sowell wrote: "It was a worldwide institution, entrenched on every inhabited continent, subjugating people of every color, language, and religion."

When a few people on a tiny island began to battle against it, no one believed they could win.

Rent control: "welfare for the rich"?

What if this "compassionate" policy is actually a wealth transfer from young, poor, and minority renters to older, established, mostly white tenants?

The data is brutal 🧵 Here's what they don't tell you about rent control.

A paper in the Journal of Urban Economics found who actually lives in rent-controlled apartments in NYC:

Mostly older, middle-class white tenants in nice neighborhoods.

Meanwhile, young people and minorities pay sky-high market rates.

If you think Milei is radical, wait until you see the "national conservatives" he was up against.

They destroyed one of the world's richest countries in 80 years.

Here's how Argentina went from prosperity to poverty—and back again 🧵 This isn't ancient history.

It's a real-time case study of what happens when trade policies are set by rhetoric instead of facts.

And every student needs to understand this before they graduate into an economy shaped by similar talking points.

Milei just did something no economist thought was possible:

He cut Argentina's inflation from 25% to 2% in ONE YEAR.

Here's the brutal truth about how he did it 🧵 Argentina was collapsing.

Annual Inflation at 250%. Half the country in poverty.

Unions, regulations, and decades of state control had paralyzed the economy.

When Javier Milei took office, most experts expected failure. They were wrong.

Everywhere you turn, someone is defending socialism — professors, influencers, politicians, even classmates or coworkers.

They all repeat the same narrative: that socialism means justice, that markets are dangerous, and that government control is the answer.

But they never mention the cost — or the horrors. 🧵 It sounds noble — who wouldn’t want equality and fairness?

But when an idea is repeated in schools, universities, and social feeds without question, it stops being discussion and becomes dogma.

And that’s exactly what’s happened to socialism.

A socialist leader visited NASA, saw rockets that could reach the moon, and wasn't impressed.

Then he walked into a random Texas grocery store and had a complete mental breakdown.

Here's why 🧵 This isn't just a story about grocery stores.

It's about the most important economic lesson of the 20th century—one that every student should understand before they graduate.

Because what amazed Boris Yeltsin should terrify you about what we're losing.

Antifa claims to fight fascism.

But read these quotes and guess which ideology they're from:

— "Individual welfare is secured by the strength and success of the State"

— "Private property has no intrinsic rights—only social utility"

Plot twist: They're fascist. 🧵 This isn't about triggering anyone.

It's about understanding why your professors never teach you what fascists actually believed.

Because if they did, you'd realize something uncomfortable about modern politics.

Why is the President of Argentina wearing THIS pin while announcing major policy changes?

The story goes back to 1945, when a war hero wanted to save his country—and a Nobel Prize winner told him to forget about politics. 🧵 This isn't just about a pin.

It's about how ideas travel from university classrooms to presidential palaces.

And why every student needs to understand this journey—because you're living through it right now.

In 1965, when the KKK controlled an entire Louisiana town—the mayor, the police, the factories—a group of black factory workers did something that changed history.

They picked up guns. And they won. 🧵 This is the story your professors won't tell you about civil rights.

Not the sanitized version about peaceful protests and marching.

But the real story of how ordinary people used the Second Amendment to defend liberty when the system failed them completely.

You complain about your life until you learn about Thomas Sowell's.

Born into crushing poverty during the Great Depression. No father. No mother. No electricity. No running water.

Yet he became one of America's most influential economists.

This is how tragedy became triumph. 🧵 North Carolina, 1930. Thomas Sowell enters a world that doesn't want him.

His father dies before his birth. His mother dies shortly after. He's raised by an aunt in a house without basic utilities, during the worst economic collapse in American history.

But this was just the beginning.

Ayn Rand’s fiction used to feel exaggerated.

Now it feels like news.

In Anthem, the word “I” is forbidden. Only “we” is allowed.

Independent thought is punished.

Those who stand out are silenced.

Sound familiar? 🧵 Written in 1937, Anthem imagined a future where:

— Everyone is equal… because no one is allowed to be exceptional

— Curiosity is a crime

— Progress is feared

— Truth needs permission

It was fiction. Now, it’s a mirror.

Be less like Marx.

More like Satoshi.

Marx tried to raise people’s consciousness. Satoshi gave them an escape hatch.

Here’s why the future of liberty isn’t just in arguments—

It’s in building. 🧵 There’s no liberty movement without debate.

But let’s be honest:

We waste way too much time trying to convert people—

To “educate” them into liberty.

That’s not a pro-freedom strategy.

That’s a Marxist one.
