Why the fuck would you have a reason to hate nonwhites?

What is Islamism? Isn't it just Islam? We don't say Christianism
Islamism is political Islam.
Sounds like a dumb phrase

In the eyes of the law, or just in general?

Every time a leftist uses the word revolution unironically, I get the urge to clean my gun.
I don't really know what that has to do with this thread, other then a dumb quote in the title that I said I disagreed with.
It is very upsetting to hear violent political change treated as something to be striven for. Especially from the faction that shares ideals with regimes that killed millions of people to bring about these changes.
Using this word makes myself, and I'm sure others, immediately hostile to the person using it.
I don't think anybody strives for violent revolution in this day and age, also I have no sympathy for authoritarian governments such as the ones in Eastern Europe and Asia.

While I disagree with this statement, it's hard to deny that many major news outlets don't cover any major protests that take place in the world. https://socialistworker.co.uk/art/42332/Half+a+million+workers+and+students+march+in+France+against+anti-worker+lawsThe president of UNEF, the main national students’ union, said that over 500,000 had taken part in marches across the country. http://usuncut.com/politics/nationwide-march-for-bernie-sanders-sweeps-across-35-cities/In the first-ever nationwide march for a presidential candidate, thousands of people in at least 35 cities took to the streets in the “March for Bernie.” http://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/feb/27/cnd-rally-anti-nuclear-demonstration-trident-londonUnion officials, faith leaders, anti-nuclear activists and anti-war campaigners were evident. Stewards estimated the numbers ran into “many tens of thousands”. I know most of you probably already know the media sucks, but here's some more fuel for the fire.

It also plans to gain 37 trillion dollars, but whatever

does nobody care that this allows for chemical warfare on a really large scale?
Would consoles and even normal gaming PC's be able to handle that? Having large scale combat along with gas is going to be demanding.
They have to add it in some way, WW1 was a chemical war

The logic that people follow is that a college degree now is equivalent to a high school degree in the 60's

Im pretty sure that without serious revision our current system will collapse soon anyways, either pick socialism or pick capitalism
edit: I do know that full socialism does have parts of capitalism in it, and I do know that the existence of a government that has any public facilities is technically socialist, but you know what I mean.

The tax revenue he plans on generating is a tiny fraction of how he proposes to get the money to pay for his plans
And where, prey tell, is the rest of the money going to come from?
I feel like you should know this beforehand...
>based on gerald friedman's work
Literally get the fuck out of here with that voodoo bullshit. You don't get to scream and shout about how an economist supports Sanders when that economists' work is based mostly on unicorn farts and rainbows. Like, did you even read the article in the OP?
I never said that it was accurate, just that tax revenue is a tiny portion of the money Sanders plans to make

Well this is the logical expectation..
higher wages=more money that people can spend=more money for corporations to hire people
Conservatives predicted the opposite. Higher wages leads to a higher Cost of Goods Sold, meaning either higher prices, or austerity measures (cutting headcount, automation, or dropping product size) to make up the lost profits.
What happened was what you said.
It's funny because all the negative consequences they predict happening after raising the minimum wage usually happen when they're in power. Like how the Greek economy got ass raped by the right wing party and was put in a massive hole to the point that the left could do nothing about it. (sorry for shitty english)

I'm not going to scream "government get out reeeee" like a retard, if that's what you assume anarchism is. Political change comes slowly over time. A liberal regime that abuses less and grants more individual and economic freedom is, by my anarchist standards, far better than an authoritarian regime like the CCP. I'm not going to turn down a band-aid just because it won't instantly heal my wound. Then you're not in favor of anarchism. You're not an anarchist.
I'm not a revolutionary anarchist. Change must be incremental, lest we find ourselves in the position the communists did.
Wanting to see humanity progress and become peaceful so we don't need government and police and military isn't anarchism. It's just the logical course. No, fam, that's pretty much anarchism. Long-term anarchism.
I prefer to contemplate sitting and pray standing. Join me.
LOL
:^)
It's not anarchism at all. That's just human progress.
Anarchism is the complete abolition of government and a voluntaryist society.
Which happens to be the end goal of human progress, which means we're all anarchist
Except it isn't anarchy.
What we'll end up being after thousands of years is nothing like what anarchy promotes.
but how?

I mean shit man, I only make 21k BEFORE TAXES a year. If I elect Bernie, can I expect to be given another 30k tax free to brig my gross income up to the national average?
No, you can't because he's only increasing taxes on those with yearly incomes of 250k+
