What ever happened to Communism?

The social democracies are liberal nations.

Not by any delusional stretch of the imagination.

(The word does not mean what you think it does.)

Of course it does.

Even by one of your favorite public toilet type sources agrees with me.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberalism

But so do the more reputable sources.

liberalism, political doctrine that takes protecting and enhancing the freedom of the individual to be the central problem of politics.
https://www.britannica.com/topic/liberalism
a political philosophy based on belief in progress and stressing the essential goodness of the human race, freedom for the individual from arbitrary authority, and protection and promotion of political and civil liberties

Plenty more here, they all confirm the common consensus use of the word.

The best society is not the one with the most liberty. The best society is the one with the least poverty.

The truly objectionable thing about the USSR was its poverty.

Incorrect.

The best society is the one with the least poverty.

Those tend to be the ones with the most liberty....people will get productive when you stop taking everything from them.

The truly objectionable thing about the USSR was its poverty.

Poverty that socialism creates everywhere it's tried.

Theft and slavery are not virtues.

How many Russians have you worked with?

No, the countries with the least poverty are the social democracies, which you somehow seem to judge deficient in liberty.
 
No, the countries with the least poverty are the social democracies,

They are also the most capitalistic.

which you somehow seem to judge deficient in liberty.

Throwing people in jail for thought crimes that offend leftoids, among many other absolutely absurd social policies.... are psychotically authoritarian. Hitler would be proud of the modern "progressive" western lefty.

The social democracies are better and freer countries than the U.S. You can't spin your way out of that. We have all to learn from then, they have nothing to learn from us.

Not really, they are weak and falling apart.

and freer countries than the U.S.

And that's a lie.

You can't spin your way out of that.
Don't have to. Facts are facts.

They are authoritarian shitholes on a downward spiral.

We have all to learn from then, they have nothing to learn from us.

If that were the case they wouldn't be dependent upon us to prop them up economically and protect them.
 
They outrank us on all quality-of-life measures that matter, including democracy

That matter to LEFTIST who desire a nanny state to micromanage their lives for them.

For everyone else who doesn't want to be a strictly indoor cat, not so much.

And those have NOTHING to do with liberty. They are not more free by being more nannied. Literally the opposite.
. And they have fewer of their people in prison than we do -- that matters a lot.

Not really, and it shows with their crime problems. Something the (D)umb fucks in the USA are trying to emulate. "Protect the criminals!! PUNISH their victims!! THAT'S PROGRESS!!!" LOL what a bunch of absolute fucking morons.
