    Socialism and Capitalism were made for each other. They are not antagonistic, not anymore. Cheap imported labour, high disposable income and high consumer spending all stem from liberal Socialism. I've said before that Socialism hits an economic and technological brick wall in a Communist (or non-Capitalist) system. It's reached the stage that if a libertarian, low tax (across the board), socially conservative party came to power, Industrialists would be worried. Signs are on, there's no such party on the horizon anywhere in the developed world.
    Marxists, Feminists and Leftists operate on the basis of "liberating tolerance" - i.e. their ideas should be tolerated, and any opposition should be suppressed.

    Consider it rude, the support of economic sovereignty for which your German masters have no say.
