Comments by "Jason Dashney" (@jasondashney) on "Richard Wolff: The Final Case Against Donald J. Trump" video.

In the first 10 seconds, Richard describes himself perfectly. He's an intellectual fraud, who never actually has anything substantive to say about anything. Truly listen to what he says. It's always extremely vague, and he never has any solutions for anything, and he can't even articulate his own side. I was really curious about Socialism on a practical level so I watched a few of his videos in the hopes that I would learn more than pithy statements. Nope. I watch multiple hours of him talking, and he actually doesn't have anything to say whatsoever when it comes to real-world substance.

@SmilesPerGallon- Agreed. Socialism has to be a terrible idea because I've looked and looked and looked and I can't find a single person who can actually articulate what we should do as opposed to complaining about what we should not do. "Solutions" are always vague. I want to know how it would work on a practical level. How does it work within a company that trades goods and services internationally? How does ANYTHING work? They never say. They also never talk about how you get rid of hierarchies in light of the fact that you literally need them everywhere. Inside your family is a hierarchy and inside your friend group is a hierarchy and inside every workplace there's a hierarchy, because some people are more competent than others. If there's a decision that needs to be made, who gets the final say? You automatically have to have a hierarchy of decision-making, and why would anybody want to have that responsibility if it didn't come with either extra money or other perks? Once again, you have a hierarchy. And people have different levels and areas of expertise and motivation. It's like the cliché that anybody who's done a group project at school or at work should intuitively understand why Socialism could never work without it being authoritarian, and if it's authoritarian, then people aren't equal anymore.

Notice how everyone in this comment thread so far who is against Me was just throwing around ad hominem insults? It's so interesting to me that a hallmark of the far left is the propensity to insult people without actually offering anything constructive. It seems to be baked into the ideology somehow.

@PaulMarkwick I believe I’ve seen a little bit of both of those guys. Maybe I’ll look up some videos of both both of them and do a bit of a deeper dive. Thank you. Hopefully they have something more than vague criticisms. I’ve seen a ton of stuff from. That said, WTF are you talking about that you used no ad homonyms? You left an entire comment that was nothing but a bunch of 🤡 emojis. Just sayin.
