Is that what I said? I don’t believe that’s what I said.

It is exactly what your said

Tempo mocked my calling for him to return his land to the American Indians....well, he was for it after he was against it?

https://www.dsausa.org/statements/statement-on-decolonization/

DSA is committed to the full decolonization of all the occupied lands of the United States: self-determination and full sovereignty for Hawai’i; Puerto Rico; Amerika Sāmoa (American Samoa); Guåhån (Guam); Northern Mariana Islands; Virgin Islands; and to all indigenous nations whose ancestral lands are within current U.S. borders; as well as to the independence to all other overseas territories and dependencies controlled, occupied, or otherwise exploited by the USA.

This commitment includes the following actions:

DSA will work to build a movement in solidarity with and alongside those oppressed peoples and their own political formations, conscious and respectful of their own leadership and organization, against all forms of colonialism and imperialism;

DSA will establish a Decolonization Working Group to facilitate anti-imperialist and decolonization politics within the organization;

DSA will work to overturn the Insular Cases (1901) that created the colonial status of the territories acquired from Spain following the Spanish-American War and all other laws and legal rulings that maintain the colonial status quo. DSA will work for the release of all political prisoners incarcerated for their resistance to U.S. imperialism;

DSA will support and work with the people of Puerto Rico in extricating themselves from the strictures of the Jones Act (1920) and related acts of the 1910s and 1920s that established U.S. control over shipping to Puerto Rico. At the same time DSA will work to expand labor protections found within that original act dealing with the rights of seafarers, fishers, and agricultural workers;

DSA will work with colonized peoples for the forgiveness of all debts and reparations to the survivors of this exploitation, as well as their descendants, so as to allow the free political expression of the oppressed of these peoples;

DSA stands for the total dissolution of the United States empire.

You go first, Tempo and DSA comrades!

Karl Marx wearing a Fields Chief jersey would be something....

You pay into a shared commodity, right?

Taxes are socialism!

Tempo says kick her out!

She Labeled a Swim Party ‘Muslims Only.’ The Response Ravaged Her Life.

She had a flyer ready, which she shared widely on social media last year, when more than 500 people turned out. She changed a few words, adding that the event would be “family-friendly.”

And she kept the part that said: “Muslims Only.”

She didn’t think twice about it. After all, the event celebrated a Muslim holiday. There would be halal meat, Islamic music, a private prayer area and a dress code of modest swimwear.

She wanted observant families to feel comfortable. She never thought anyone would mind.

Dude. Give it up. You’re wrong. “Capitalistic” societies can and do have some “socialist” policies. Fire Departments, the military,  the federal highway system, and Medicare being prime examples. We live in a mixed economy. Give it up.

Having a military is socialist? Think they have been around well before the 1700s and the 1800s when "socialism" was birthed. 

Any other definitions are bastardizations brought about because Socialism and Socialist share a whole word with programs, entitlements, government programs and interventions, etc and people can’t keep them straight. I used to be guilty of it myself.

I also think it’s somewhere intentional on the part of actual Socialists to let people assume every well-meant social program is Socialism. It furthers their cause amongst people who don’t know any better and want more safety net or handouts or whatever.  Two or three decades the vast majority of American people wouldn’t be caught dead attaching Socialist to their name, and for good reason.

So many of the things you have called Socialism cannot be Socialism because the means of production remain private. Social programs do not equal Socialism. It’s an important distinction.

Good luck with Tempo and Nichi...the HQ2 Comintern Members!

That's always an interesting theoretical problem.

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof"

What if someone's free exercise violates the law, deprives others of their rights, is objectively harmful, or is widely considered morally offensive?

We were just talking about the call to prayer.

AI insights

Whether Muslims have the right to publicly broadcast the call to prayer (the Adhan) depends heavily on local jurisdiction. It is not an absolute right but is generally permitted if mosques comply with standard community noise ordinances.

Muslims do not have the right to legally impose Sharia on communities in the United States. The U.S. Constitution's Supremacy Clause dictates that federal and state laws are the supreme law of the land, and no religious law can override, replace, or supersede the American legal system.

Under the First Amendment, Muslims have the right to practice their religion freely, which includes voluntarily adhering to the private, personal tenets of Sharia—such as dietary restrictions, prayer, and personal finance—in the same way other religious groups follow their own sacred traditions. However, this religious freedom does not permit the establishment of parallel legal systems, Sharia courts, or the enforcement of religious laws on individuals who do not wish to abide by them

The Roberts Court will allow Christian fundamentalism to take over. Then Sharia law will take over via the court's religious opinions when the SDA/Progressives take over.
