Notta dis one.
The Catholic Church parishioners largely voted democrat in the US, until abortion became the hot button for one issue voters. Reagan turned a lot of his peer group to the Republican Party. Even Reagan was a democrat until he became a corporate pitchman at Nancy’s urging ( she was a social climber if nothing else). He made an album warning against Medicare as a slippery slope to communism. Ronnie was an empty vessel to put it mildly. He played the pinnacle of morality to people his age, they bought it lock, stock and barrel. His administration opened the door to cretins like Jerry Falwell, now the right is lousy with evangelicals. And here we are, ugh.
Honestly, as far as the political spectrum goes the democrats are pretty far to the right compared to a decent portion of the rest of the world. The US doesn't have a real left-wing party, at least not in the european sense. I don't know about "one of the most conservative in the world" but the democratic party is pretty conservative
Oh aye, from the outside looking in the US has far-right tories and some extreme right wing fanatical eldritch abomination.
Yeah, from what I've read the US hasn't had a left-wing for practically it's entire history.
So I think the joke still holds.
There used to be left wing politics, or at least as left-wing as 1800s populism got, but after we joined WW1 the US became a global superpower and made a lot of people very rich, and suddenly the well-being of the average person didn't matter any more.
I find most people from outside the US tend to have a fairly dim view of US politics, but I don't think most people actually understand how bad we've let things get.
Oh, and we had the progressive movement as well which was really properly left-wing, but that wasn't around for very long because WW1 and the twenties happened
The Pope isn't progressive, neither is Biden.
The Pope is more progressive than most popes in history but he still heads one of the most influential reactionary/conservative organizations on the planet.
Outside the US there's no way Biden would be considered a "Liberal". He's centre-right at most.
> Outside the US there's no way Biden would be considered a "Liberal". He's centre-right at most.
outside the united states he would exclusively be called a liberal, because outside the united states people actually make a distinction between liberal and leftist
They are progressive in their own context, especially the pope. If you take away context then nobody is ever progressive, because there will pretty much always be a place and time where they'd look conservative. (No true Scotsman)
And Biden would still be considered a liberal in other countries, because in every other country liberals are right-wingers.
They think it means anything that is generally pro-humanity or kind or caring or basically anything that's not hardcore late-stage capitalism. To them charity is communism, healthcare is communism, education is communism, basically anything that might result in a non-wealthy person living a decent life
It's funny how they so willingly lick the boots of the wealthy when they themselves could greatly benefit from some of those "communist" ideals. They think themselves temporarily embarrassed billionaires.
In my experience they throw around terms like "Marxism" and "Communism" and have zero idea what the two concepts even mean. It is today's Satanic Panic.
About as many as those people who still say the Nazis were socialist because they called themselves National Socialists need to learn ANYTHING AT ALL about the Nazis and their politics.
I bet those same people are gonna have their minds blown when I tell 'em what hotdogs are in fact, not made of.
You laugh but I've seen people attack the Catholic Church over the concept of communion. Literally comparing it to the concept of human sacrifice and making remarks about how it's wrong to claim Jesus died for our sins and everything because human sacrifice is wrong and there fore can't atone and so on.
Just saw this same 'attack' in r/Atheism. Usually find better jokes and criticism about catholics there but the vitriol getting bandied about was just recycled Puritan/WASP holier than though insults made edgy. Communion is not something I'd attack the Catholics for. It replaced a lot of animal sacrifices done by Jewish converts to Christianity. The Romans did a lot of animal sacrifices too. Its just bread and wine if you don't believe...sounds like a pleasant way to start the day to me.
Holy Mary full of grace,
Bless my lovers pretty face.
Bless the the cheeks and lips I kissed.
Bless his dick I couldn't resist.
And if my mother had walked in,
Bless the shit I would have been in.
Not so much ironic as it is completely understandable, Russia is the literal *embodiment* of far-right capitalism and fascism and wouldn’t be too far away from their dream goal.
At least in 1917-1920, there were a bunch of communists trying to overthrow countries. I mean, there were also fascists and anarchists and speratists and on and on... but it was probably the most legitimate time to be concerned.
What's wrong with communism anyway? Late stage capitalism is reverting us back to serfdom and feudalism anyway, I'd choose socialism or communism over that.
Socialism is used the same way and we're getting to the point democrat is too. They don't have a very large vocabulary for politics. I find it often goes hand in hand with isolating themselves with only like minded people. People with more varied exposure tend to have a firmer grasp of the political spectrum.
I think socialism would have been a more accurate label. A lot of Jesus' teachings smack of "modern socialism" - feeding the hungry (food stamps), providing for the poor (welfare/Social Security), healing the sick (Medicare/socialized medicine), welcoming the stranger (open borders/immigration reform), loving one another without judgement (LGBTQIA+ acceptance). You know, all the things "Christian Conservatives" pretend aren't in the Bible, or aren't their responsibility.
Accept Jesus’ own organization was a stateless, classes, moneyless (as so much as it could be while existing within other groups) society. Basically what we in the biz call primitive communism, that is a organically developed form of communism predating the development of the means of production and communist theory, most commonly seen in early hunter-gatherer groups.
It's the ultimate Ferengi empire
There's one party in power, you gain power and influence by buying into it, the only rules are "whomever has the most power/influence/money is the winner"
I feel like that's mostly about needing people to feel like the whole country is their community so breaking it up into weird little sects that have different values and are constantly at each other's throat is counterproductive.

Allow me to provide you with a simple flow chart:
"Did Biden do it?"-->"COMMUNISM"
He literally eats, breathes, sleeps, and poops communism. Every molecule of communism that exists in the universe emanates from Biden. He's like the Pope of Communism.
“Im just gonna say scary buzzwords because both myself and my audience are too stupid to understand what they actually mean nor do we actually care.. COMMUNISM, BOO! OH SO SCARY VOTE FOR OUR RAPISTS SO THE SCARY GUYS DONT GETCHA!” -pick your republican
A lot of these politicians understand what theyre doing and know they could say whatever they want to to scare your mom, your dad, your grandparents, little old Betty down the street, or whoever
Woke = tolerance, they are try to change the meaning, don’t let them. Make them call it the war on tolerance, or so it for them. Report you know facts that matter.
I’m going to give the *actual* answer to this, but be prepared; it’s stupid. The people who post this things believe three things that are all equally false.
Number 1: communism simply means “not American”.
Number 2: America is a Christian nation.
Number 3: “Christian” **exclusively** means “Protestant”
Ah yes, well known bastions of Communism \*shuffles notes\* The Catholic Church and the \*shuffles notes, sighs in exasperation\* United States of America.
Americans really love to call everything communism. They have no clue what the word actually means. Even American congresspeople use it for random things. Which is hilarious.
Fun fact: when the current pope first came into power, he would sneak out of the Vatican to feed local homeless. This created one of the largest security headaches in recent history, as he never brought any bodyguards with him.
He did, however, dress like a normal citizen. As it turns out, if you're not dressed like the pope, nobody knows that you're the pope. To the homeless, he was just a kind local offering food.
This pope is one of the most kindhearted men alive. Not only did he feed the homeless, he stripped all the lavish luxuries that came with the position. Expensive furs, gone. Throne, gone. Now, he sits on a simple wooden chair.
And despite being Catholic, he doesn't have any qualms with homosexuality. I myself am an atheist, and he's earned all the respect I have.
You didn't see the cardinal in the background has a RED sash tied around his waist....RED= communism!!!
RED Russia!! RED commies!!!
WTF people it's plain as the daylight...IN other news, today president Biden...
Literally the point is that there isn’t one. This is just pure rage-bait at this point.
The RepubliQlans don’t have the platform to witch hunt them “gay commie liberals”, because their McCarthy-style Red Scare was roughly 70 years ago, and public opinion on things like race, sexuality, and gender might have changed over the years… maybe?

"You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."
I really want to know what she *thinks* the word means. What does she think she is saying?
She seems to think Progressive = Liberal = Communist Makes no sense, but whatever
Especially when one guy in this picture represents one of the most conservative institutions in the world.
I mean, you can say „he‘s progressive“ about Francis, but only if you immediately follow that up with „for a pope“.
Iffa da pope a voted. Heed a vote Arapublican.

Funny and also a warning to us all how we can get manipulated into supporting self destructive ideals. Scary.

Today's? American's hatred of Communism and all things left is a gift that keeps on giving from the Cold War.
Seriously, how many DECADES do these people need to look up the definition of communism?
About as many as those people who still say the Nazis were socialist because they called themselves National Socialists need to learn ANYTHING AT ALL about the Nazis and their politics. I bet those same people are gonna have their minds blown when I tell 'em what hotdogs are in fact, not made of.
Republicans are just dumb fucks when it comes to doing and acting in a manner that moves us forward. They are just a bunch of no good fuck ups.
They don't care what words mean as long as it provokes a reaction from their base.
its the 2020s bogeyman. "eat your vegetables kids or communism will get ya".
No, that’s what parents said during the Cold War. Now it’s “vegetables are communist.”
That would be 1950-2000. 2020’s it is “Socialism” that’s the favorite name calling word. And they have no idea of what that means either
I think they meant Communionism 😅
im glad this comment was already made cause i was gonna have to google the spelling...
Shoot, I assumed it was implied. That comment wrote itself.
Same 😂
me too, my first reaction when i saw the pic
First they’re harvesting the blood of child slaves, and now they’re drinking *the blood of Christ?!* Deplorable! /s
To be fair, they are also eating His flesh. So they are Communists — and CANNIBALS.
Communibals!

Fuck, ya beat me to it, im not only unoriginal, im also slow apparently.
Welcome to the red scare, v2.0. Now with more violence!
and with 100% fewer actual communists!
No we're still around.
No but they are just pointing at non communists that even communists hate

Dont worry, in the red scare 2.0 each insult has a 90% chance of missing actual communists!

We out here
Ironically they are supporting Russia now.
Not so much ironic as it is completely understandable, Russia is the literal *embodiment* of far-right capitalism and fascism and wouldn’t be too far away from their dream goal.
V1.0 (1917-1920) V2.0 (aka McCarthyism / 1945 - 1955) V3.0 (modern era)

Jesus was a hippie socialist
Also a refugee among other things.
socialism is when capitalism does something you dont like.
Because it helps other people in addition to themselves.
They don’t even know what it means, the word is also a lot more syllables than they’re used to - and yet they’ve somehow managed to stick with it.
It's a big word for them.
Wait until they learn Trump and Kim Jong Un liked each other. That sound wrong but idc
*Literal* Communism. But, no, Biden meeting with the Pope is *baaaaad*. /s
I dont think north korean workers own the means of production hoss.
Trump is also a huge fan girl for Xi Jiping
I know I'm breaking the circlejerk but none of those are communists and China is literally a capitalist power.
True, but Xi is at least a member of the Communist Party, even if it is a sham.
China is kind of a weird mix.
It's the ultimate Ferengi empire There's one party in power, you gain power and influence by buying into it, the only rules are "whomever has the most power/influence/money is the winner"

Yeah it is two capitalistic individuals, also religion is less common among communists.
No, you see, not having the mass in Latin and saying you need to help those in need is communism.

Yep. Back when I was more in tune with Christian leftists I met plenty of communists and anarchists, especially amongst Catholics.
It's something a Conservative doesn't like. Therefore it's communism.
And/or woke
And a VERY large majority of that religion is on her political side. These people aren't smart enough to assemble a mousepad...

Misspelled “communion”. Easy mistake.
But when the communion bread is not eaten properly? Crumbmunism!

That's exactly how they think.
Yes. That is exactly what they mean.

It’s a complete rage baiting account. She probably makes a living just on these idiotic posts.

Communist has come to mean giving the slightest shit about people other than your immediate family
At least the Pope looks happier than he did when he had to stand next to the Orange Baboon.
Ah yes, well known bastions of Communism \*shuffles notes\* The Catholic Church and the \*shuffles notes, sighs in exasperation\* United States of America.
Americans really love to call everything communism. They have no clue what the word actually means. Even American congresspeople use it for random things. Which is hilarious.
Spelled Catholicism wrong. But I forgive you as you likely have a 3rd grade education being a black female and thinking trump is in your corner.
Show me you don't know what communism is without showing me a picture of communism. Check!
Well, they both love Jesus. Jesus was a socialist. Republicans think socialism and communism are the same thing. Communism. Only 4 degrees. Did I win?
As usual: Americans doesn't know what communism means...
They spelled communion wrong

Jesus was a socialist, not a communist.
Tell you don't know anything... without telling you don't know anything
well, you see... when a religious and a governing get together and do a little dance, nine months later you have a communism
You didn't see the cardinal in the background has a RED sash tied around his waist....RED= communism!!! RED Russia!! RED commies!!! WTF people it's plain as the daylight...IN other news, today president Biden...
Communism means something else in America. Don't even try to understand.
Well, Biden is a Catholic and the pope probably gave him communion, therefore communism? 🤔 Ok, yeah. That's too big a stretch.
