I am anti socialist . . .
Then you're in the wrong country, bub . . . especially if you're in agriculture (Billions yearly in socialist, anti-free market subsidies), oil (ditto, only more), logging, the pharmaceutical industry, or plan to live beyond the age of 65. I suggest you move.

no, they are anti-communist. not anti-socialist. It is typical that your small mind doesn't understand the difference.

There isn't a single Russian that you will meet that isn't rather collectivist at heart, and rather strongly socialist in nature. Russians tend to stick together and help each other out (socialism) far, far, more than the typical American; especially compared to the selfish, bed-wetting, self-fellaters in the Trump counties that couldn't tell the difference between a Patriot and a Nazi.
LOL you evidently do not know the same people I do, as I said they are anti-socialist. Very anti-socialist.

ah yes, because Obama was famous for empowering white supremacist Nazis just like Trump has. Here, you admit the fact of Trump encouraging Nazis to be loud and proud and outwardly violent...yet somehow seem bizarrely miffed that Obama's fans weren't as empowered by his presidency?

strange part of Russia you live in, comrade.
LOL

Clearly both sides are to blame. The conservative bloke for pointing a gun and almost killing a woman because of her having opposing political views and the woman for having a view in the first place. If only the woman didn't vote for Hillary or heck, even have the right to vote in the first place then this incident would not have happened. Maybe next time the Dems should listen to us.

I must have missed the rioting in the streets and all the violence it caused, maybe it was covered on another channel.

No. You cannot move the goal posts we are talking about the conservative response to an arab being elected president. Which was to invent an elaborate fringe conspiracy theory one which the donald was a fervent believer in.

I am anti socialist, but so are the Russian immigrants I have met in America after they fled Russia, so I suppose I have commonalities with them. :)

No one cares. Because it is irrelevant. I just thought I would point that out. Also you seem to be confusing socialism with communism and also capitalism because russia isn't a communist country anymore. That's OK though because there are plenty of people on this forum who confuse nazism with socialism. You are in illustrious company.

My experiences have been markedly different. As a P.I. from the mid 1980s through to this century, I spent a fair amount of time in N.E. Philly (also North Philly, but that was different folks and a different culture) which housed, and continues to house a large number of Russian immigrants. I can't say that any of them ever struck me as anti-socialist. In fact, they were all adept at grabbing whatever "socialist" gov't benefits they could . . . subsidized housing, stipends, food stamps, and special bennies of all sorts available to them as refugees from then communist Russia.

And, as zin so rightly pointed out, Russians are strongly imbued with collectivist (read socialist) ways of banding together and getting along that predates the rise of the "Communist" (read totalitarian state fascist) regime of Lenin and Stalin et. al.

Google Mir if you wish to educate yourself on the matter . . . or just begin by reading my link!

Actually, I said what if the conservatives responded the same way the liberals did. Did you forget how the liberals flooded the streets and started rioting?
That is what I was referring to, it was someone else that misunderstood that and thought the liberals started a Trump birth certificate hunt.

I don't recall that at all. I do remember many marches with millions of people across the globe marching peacefully in protest of trump though.

I am not speaking of those Russians that like socialism and want to stay and be a part of that in Russia, I am only talking about my friends that are formerly of the Soviet Union and left to escape Socialism and are now staunch Republicans because they believe, rightly or wrongly, the Democrats have a socialist agenda.

That's all, and what I am saying is true of those people. Believe it or not. :)

No. You are moving the goal posts again. We are discussing the conservative response to a black arab being elected president. Just to reiterate they invented an elaborate fantastical conspiracy theory. That the current worlds best president was a proponent of. Try to stay focused on the topic please.

Also stop confusing socialism, communism and capitalism this is basic stuff dude. Come on.

Here is my post... show me where it mentions a black arab being elected...
Liberal leaning? lol if she leaned any farther left, she'd be either in the Old Soviet Union or on her head!

What would the liberals have said if the conservatives reacted to Obama like they reacted to Trump? I can hear the rhetoric now.

I don't think I am the confused one here, but carry on. :) #Triggered

I am already beyond 65 and I retired at 50. :) I did it by myself without government handouts too, btw.

Did you read my post in its entirety? You don't seem to have. I was talking about the many, many Russians who did escape Russia and came to the United States, and they had no qualms whatsoever about the socialistic aspects of Russia or America (which they eagerly embraced.) These aspects are quite apart from the stultifying totalitarian fascism features of the USSR's political system from which they fled.

I did and my experiences are nearly the exact opposite of that. It does not mean that my experiences are less or more valid than yours, accept that.

You have a very selective memory @Alpha One Seven, a very convenient one as well. Dumb don't pay man. Catch a clue then be a valuable, contributing, decent human. How about it?

I could say the same to you, amigo, except that your opinion is worth nothing anyways. :)
Stay clueless.
I'd have to work at it. It appears to be your gift! You know, you don't have to keep all gifts. You can exchange them for something better. Power on dimwit!
