Conservatives don’t hate “socialism “, they hate equality

Truthout is extreme left. It’s the left’s equivalent to Breitbart.

These media sources are moderately to strongly biased toward liberal causes through story selection and/or political affiliation. They may utilize strong loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by using appeal to emotion or stereotypes), publish misleading reports and omit reporting of information that may damage liberal causes. Some sources in this category may be untrustworthy. See all Left Bias sources.

Overall, we rate Truthout strongly Left Biased based on story selection and political positions that favor the left. We also rate them Mixed for factual reporting due to publishing a false story as well as promoting anti-GMO propaganda.

As you were a conservative for so long, and you have conservative family members, do you agree with this at all? You think conservatives are against equality??

One of the most ridiculous articles full of bias and BS that you have post yet, Libby! It just makes me laugh when you post articles like this over and over.

I’m not against equality, are you? I am however against equality by forced redistribution of other people’s money.

You can dress up socialism any way you want - it's not going to change how wrong it is.

Here's a hard truth that no one wants to accept: you cannot make someone "equal" by forcing another person who has worked for what they have to turn around and just give what they worked for to another person who has done nothing except to sit with their hands out waiting for other people to fill them. That is the definition of slavery, which was abolished many years ago. No one has any right to expect or demand that others provide them with any given standard of living - if they want it, they should work for it, and if they're not willing to work for it, they don't deserve to have it.

No, it doesn't. There's a huge difference between REAL socialism and these piddle programs. You know this, right?
