As is pointed out in the article. People like Stalin and Pol Pot find their way to the top.

that's about as much "hate" as one needs to define.....

the OP's posit is valid....


Again show us a truly democratic socialist country that has killed millions of people. Again a true example and not an example like North Korea with a name like Democratic People's Republic of Korea

Yes they did but apparently you need some tutoring because your understanding of socialism is stuck in the Cold War.

RE: Why isn't socialism a hate crime?
Here's the other thing socialism lovers ignore, Sweden has less than 10 million people and a historically homogeneous society,which is still 88% native born. Norway only has about 5 million residents and is even more homogeneous.

Socialism has a much better chance of working among smaller groups that have a strong bond through ethnic and social similarities. An example would be small town America where, if someone is having troubles or is sick, it's common for your neighbor to cut your grass for you of cook you a dinner and bring it over to help you out. In farm communities if a farmer breaks his leg the other farmers will come and harvest his crops for him so he doesn't lose them.

Big city, diverse groups (liberal havens) are the exact opposite of this mindset, but they are the ones that think socialism is a great idea. Really makes you wonder why, doesn't it? It's because they are interested in what they will get, not what they have to give. That's why socialism always has, and always will, fail when applied on a large scale to a diverse population.

There are always gonna be two types of socialist countries: the despotic and the conquered. These are the historic outcomes, always.

"...After all, the evidence for its malignant effects is obvious to anyone with sufficient curiosity to look at the historical record. The socialist movement has been responsible for the murder, imprisonment, and torture of many millions, and perhaps hundreds of millions, of innocent people during its heyday in the twentieth century. That history of murder and tyranny continues on a smaller scale today in the handful of countries living under the misfortune of socialism—for example, Cuba, North Korea, Vietnam, and (more recently) Venezuela.

How do socialists escape the indictment that, in view of the historical record, they are purveyors of tyranny and mass murder?...


To return to the question posed at the beginning: is socialism a hate crime? The record speaks for itself: socialism is a hate crime, a doctrine of tyranny, mass murder, and human suffering on a vast scale. What should be done about it is a different matter. The important thing is to identify the crime."

why only point out the socialist countries with dictators and not the ones with democratic governments?

The examples of "successful" socialists countries is always a slide scale with alt-leftists. It's always only a matter of time.

We don't hear much about Sweden anymore. Suddenly it's Norway that is all the rage.

In what way is Sweden bad?
Sweden is not a socialist country.

The mixing of economic and political terms has been interesting. Fascism is now used to mean tyrannical. Socialism now means egalitarian with free shite.

/sarc

I’m not arguing that, I’m saying socialism it doesn’t fit the criteria of a hate crime. Stink, reply to what I actually post, not what you wish I would post.

How would you know? Have you lived in a successful socialist country? So, murdering millions because of your rank ideology isn't by any criteria a hate crime?

No, it isn’t, not inherently. Of course socialist governments took part in hate crimes, but unlike white nationalism, the hate crime aspect of the ideology isn’t inherent to it.

in practice it is. it's what cha make of it. stop defending socialism. i think socialism sounds real neat but it doesn't work. dare to dream, at your own peril
