I hate to inject a little rationality into this wonderful mudslinging, but:

1) Socialism, historically, has never worked. The current best examples are Venezuela and Cuba. From each according to his means, to each according to his needs appears to contradict human nature.

2) The Quran's statement that Muslims are free to use violence against non-Muslims is, to my mind, disgusting. AFAIK, violence, except in defense of self or others, is criminal everywhere. To paraphrase Isaac Asimov, violence is the last resort of the incompetent. (If memory serves, that sentiment is expressed, by Salvor Hardin, somewhere in the early part of The Foundation Trilogy.)

Milwaukee, Wisconsin fared very well under socialist mayors for a number of years. The common people of Venezuela did well during Chavez's tenure. And the poor were much better off after the overthrow of the Batista regime.

Even in the USSR, homes remained private property for their owners :joy:.
I’m pretty sure that’s either a bad joke or a complete misinterpretation of what he said.. I can’t imagine any rational person seriously suggesting that.

Mamdani Did Say That.
