Seven times James O'Brien took on Donald Trump supporters | LBC

[@tombrown407]

Have you ever noticed that people who blame socialism for everything always describe capitalism when they think they're describing socialism?

[@British_Ar5ehole_In_Exile]

See also when they rant and rave about communism, completely unaware that what they're *actually* describing is fascism.

[@yes-me6yg]

I love that someone with a platform is talking to these people. Most people can't explain what socialism is but in most situations they can just insinuate its bad and all the other people that don't know what it is agree with them and ignorance snowballs in all their lives Edit: Upon relistening I heard James say "socialism is everybody earns the same" so unfortunately he doesn't know what socialism is either but that doesn't take away the enjoyment of seeing low hanging fruit like brexiteers and the MAGA tribe getting humiliated

[@friedricengravy6646]

These willfully ignorant know it alls have no idea that communism & socialism & capitalism r economic systems while they fear & rant about authoritarian rule. The reason this is important is because authoritarian rule can happen within capitalism just as well as the other 2. The reason they r defined as willfully ignorant, ignorance is a lack of information, these people deny the information, the facts, any time they r provided.
