Famed Yale business guru Jeffrey Sonnenfeld said America’s top tycoons are freaked out by Trump’s ‘Maoist’ MAGA movement — despite some executives’ ‘Dear Leader’ praise in public
So when you said, “I’m not trying to be mean but how in practice is this substantially different than Maoism?” you weren’t implying that Trump is a Maoist?
Yeah and we’ve gotten down to the fact the only functional difference is stretching towards socialism. So in practice they aren’t functionally different a farmer losing their farm is generally unconcerned about what form of government did it in the long run.
Lol no we haven’t. We have not even begun a serious discussion about it.
To establish that they are at all similar, you need to establish the similarities between Trump’s actions and Maoism, beyond, “They both made plans to industrialize” which is true of countless countries around the world that had nothing to do with Maoism. As I said, by your standard, Emperor Meiji would be a Maoist, which is absurd.
Since you have not, and refuse to do this, then obviously you have no real basis for making that claim. They are so different that it’s utterly bizarre that anyone would ever compare the two.
On the one hand, someone who came to power via a revolution in a poor and undeveloped country with the support of landless agricultural workers who then redistributed land from the landlords to the peasants and then moved to develop the economy. On the other hand, a billionaire landlord who came to power in a rich developed country through a bourgeois election with the support of the wealthy who has, rather than giving poor agricultural workers their own farms, has been deporting them en masse to foreign prisons.
They are opposites in virtually every respect and the only similarities you’ve found are entirely superficial or are true of virtually everyone. This comparison is baseless, ignorant nonsense, and anyone making it has zero understanding of anything.
We have, you injected yourself into a conversation you clearly don’t understand nor does it seem that you care to.
No, all I have to ask is how in practice they are functioning differently. We do not in fact need to approach this is the dumbest most time consuming way.
I haven’t refused anything, I will say if you had any social skills and didn’t immediately get preachy and rude you’d probably get a lot farther off discussion was your actual intent which clearly it is not.
Get out your feelings, keep up with the conversation and moreover drop the preachy rude bullshit.
Forgive me for expecting an extremely basic level of political literacy.

How is a penguin different from Neptune? Clearly the assumption should be that they’re the same until proven otherwise. This is how conversations work.
I expected some amount of reading comprehension from you so I guess we both got let down huh?
You still missed the key word ie. In practice.
You’re either a troll or a legitimate fucking moron either way you really aught to take the l and go awa. At the very least calm down enough that you bother to read and absorb anything you’ve read because at this point you clearly aren’t.
And you haven’t shown anything that I’ve actually failed to comprehend.
You still missed the key word ie. In practice.
That doesn’t change anything. Unless Trump has redistributed land to the poor while I wasn’t looking?
You’re either a troll or a legitimate fucking moron
Says the person who just claimed that Trump is a Maoist on the basis that Maoism is when you industrialize. I genuinely hope you’re a troll because otherwise, Jesus Christ.

Except the times I did, that’s the reason comprehension issue I’m talking about. Good job pointing it out I guess?
It does. He doesn’t need to to prove my point.
Point to one time I said turbo trump was a maoist you absolute buffoon.
100% trolling, gotcha.
