Tried listening to Radio Havana tonight, but reception conditions are terrible. Can barely hear it beneath all the noise on the 49 M band.

Ok, a guy always angrily displays his hatred of a diverse group of people because they are bikers or non-Union members, which I think is also a bit over the top and unfair. Result? You love him.

I sound off about people whose philophies I feel want to destroy the economy and completely ruin freedom and limit rights,not to mention involve jailing people for openly expressing their dissent, but you beat me up.

Saying I hate Socialists because they want to criminalize the act of questioning climate change is over the top?
But constantly bashing groups of people who have no ability to destroy innocent people and their livlihoods for petty reasons? Not over the top?

Socialism is a toxin that takes over every aspect of peoples lives and enslaves them to the government. I believe its a bigger threat than the religion of "climate change" and socialists are trying to make that statement illegal. Socialism=infringement of freedoms.

But, keep on fawning over a guy who wants to take away your liberties

Get real

Never said I loved him... get over yourself. He's always more polite than you. I think his ideas suck. But I'm not gonna sit up here and call the guy names or anything either. Get with the program guy...

Where did you get the notion that I hate bikers? Point me to even one of my posts where I've expressed such a sentiment.

And what's this business about me hating non-Union members. I have more friends who aren't Union members than those who are. During my career, much of my work involved helping non-Union workers become Union members. Now, in retirement I volunteer my time to work as an advocate on behalf of workers who don't have the benefit of Union representation.

Well, for starters.....
"Well, I disagree with you but just to humour you here is my list of people or groups I dislike and you can call it bigotry if you want.

Scabs

Bikers

Smokers

Hunters

Trappers

Poachers

Cell phone users

Liberals

Middle class

Snowmobilers

Jet ski riders

Rednecks

Rotarians

Drunk drivers

Bigots

(more to follow)


BTW. I have friends, acquaintances and family members in just about all of these categories and we get along OK. Except for my wife's nephew, the scab. I have to force myself to be civil with him, and then have a good, stiff drink right after."

Thats not even hinted at-its right there.

Snowmobilers? Is ANYONE allowed to have fun?

I see the term "dislike" there. Dislike is a long way from hatred. I think I'm beginning to dislike you. But I don't hate you. Dislike is a relative term. Hate is absolute. And you say you hate us socialists.

Castro was a thief, liar, cheater, tyrant, murderer and communist dictator.

He said he would allow open elections, but never did.

He put himself over his people, and that is inexcusable.

A true leader would have sacrificed for his people.

No disagreement with you on that. Trudeau's fine words about Castro do nothing to mitigate his own pro-capitalist, anti-working class record, nor that of his old man.

Please draw the line between dislike and hate.

France has a socialist President. Socialists love open borders. There are now terrorist attacks several times a year in that country. I have heard an estimate that 30 THOUSAND cars are burned there every year, mostly due to non-peaceful street demonstrations. That is a hell of a lot of destruction. Hate crimes against Jews are a worry there. At the same time, socialists dislike guns, so while the socialists governments in such places have allowed an environment where riots and terrorist attacks are common, they also limit citizens abilities to protect themselves.
In Germany, socialist open-borders policies have resulted in an increase of sexual assualts to the point where women feel unsafe in public. Municipalities have put up signs saying "do not touch the women". Socialism has resulted in decreased safety and security for ordinary citizens.
Socialists are against fossil fuels.States like Texas and North Dakota have resilient economies because of it. North Dakota has the highest population growth and one of the lowest unemployment rates largely due to the fuel industry. Thats a massive golden goose that I dont think we can afford to lose. Self-described socialist Bernie Sanders has stated that he wants to get rid of all private insurance companies. That would eliminate millions of middle-class positions and I really doubt those displaced workers will find new jobs easily.
Socialists want a minimum wage increase that is unsustainable for many employers. I know that if a minimum wage increase was implemented, my entire department would be let go. I'd go from some income to none at all, which is worse.
I have a medical condition requiring hundreds to thousands of dollars worth of care and supplies every month. Ive been told that in more socialist countries, the health care would be rationed and I may not be able to get the same amount of care or supplies I am used to. I also find it interesting that Canada opened up their system and allowed free-market competition. Some folks have told me that if you want good care, seek a doctor outside of the national system. An intern at my doctors office told me that even after Obamacare passed, patients were being refused medicine that they used for decades and within a few months were becoming paralyzed.

Being polite only goes so far. I don't want my loved ones, or myself, to come home and find their neighborhood being looted like in France. I don't want someone trying to pull a Donald Trump p###y grab on wife while shes walking in a parking lot, like in Germany. I'm scared of possibly seeing the thriving middly class neighborhoods ive grown up in or near being turned into ghost towns with stripped, empty houses because the socialists regulated or got rid of the big industries. And I worry that I will not only lose my job, but not be able to find another one due to draconian, harsh regulations. And thats if I get enough health care to still be healthy enough to work. I think Its ok for me to be harsh, rude and mean when it comes to the many voters who can vote in a system where my family, co-workers and neighbors can possibly lose EVERYTHING we have tried to work for and maintain while living in fear of terrorism and violence. Am I mean? sure. Because socialist countries are falling apart and I'm scared to death of it coming here and the people voting against their own interests who want it to happen.
If my wife calls me crying because she was groped in public or I come home and find burning cars and riots in my neighborhood, while being denied medical supplies, yeah, it would be hard not to hate the sons of bitches who allowed it to happen.

Best statement I've seen on the death of this piece of shit: https://www.cotton.senate.gov/?p=press_release&id=544
Fidel Castro created hell on earth for the Cuban people. He will now become intimately familiar with what he wrought.
This is a pro-Harris/Walz account
