What are you, drunk? Are you denying you stated on an Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez thread that we should give communism a try? I can link it, but it’s to your old profile.

I may have been drunk then, but I did a search and that quote exists nowhere on this forum outside this thread and I cannot see myself ever saying that.

ETA: Found the thread but couldn't find anything I said that was remotely similar to what you described:

http://mormondiscussions.com/viewtopic. ... &start=210

In fact I said plenty that contradicted it, such as:

"I never said socialism can't fail, I've only said it hasn't really existed anywhere. And I'm not a proponent of Socialism. I absolutely love the free market, but I understand its downside as well and believe it needs to be frequently curtailed via government intervention/regulations."

Well?

This perfectly captures how I've felt since 2016, and is a big reason why it's practically impossible to take the concerns of right wingers seriously.
because of a movie still meme, no wonder you are the liberal Ajax.
