When one listens to a Leftist politician it makes one either laugh or weep. These folk are nuts for it seems murdering babies is one of their main themes. Laugh at the following video while you still have the liberty to do so.
‘When Jorge Galicia and Andrés Guilarte tell college students socialism is no utopia, they speak from experience.
The two young intellectuals were born and raised in Venezuela and over the last decade saw their country transformed into a place they barely recognize.
As exiles seeking asylum in America today, they’re telling any young person who will listen: the virus is socialism.
“No one else can know what happened in Venezuela but a Venezuelan, and we are experts on that,” said Guilarte, 25.
Galicia, 24, adds “I definitely see America committing a lot of the same mistakes Venezuela committed.”
Galicia and Guilarte are currently visiting college campuses nationwide warning young people against socialism, and told The College Fix in a joint telephone interview on Wednesday their message could not be coming at a more critical time.
“The majority of students in college say they support socialist ideas,” said Galicia, citing a recent poll which found sweeping support among young people for the system.
“Maybe they don’t know exactly what is going on in Venezuela,” Galicia said.
So Galicia and Guilarte are telling them.
“It’s a warning,” Guilarte said of their message. “We are eyewitnesses of the falling of the country. We are telling them we used to have rights like you have here. You can go to the supermarket, buy everything, you can have money for the month.”
“We used to be just like everybody else. But now [in Venezuela] we’ve ended up at the bottom of every single economic index you can find. You don’t have to take for granted your liberties — and you don’t have to wait until you lose them to fight for them.”
Galicia echoed those sentiments, saying he tells students while they might be naturally drawn to socialism, it offers a false promise.
“Who in the world wouldn’t want to have free health care, free college tuition, free whatever — the thing is those kinds of offers are not sustainable in the longterm,” he said. “I know it is tempting, but do not fall into that trap. You need to learn from other people’s experience. Keep your liberty protected, because what you have, it’s a beautiful country.”
Galicia traveled to America in October 2018 and Guilarte in January 2019. Both men were student political activists involved in liberty-minded campus groups in Venezuela, and came to the U.S. to take part in various academic-intellectual programs.
But the recent massive upheaval in Venezuela has prompted them to delay their return and seek asylum here, they said, adding they do hope to one day return to their home. They have family there, and remember a Venezuela from years ago, before its total collapse in 2013.
“Before that the country was still kind of functional,” Galicia said. “After 2013, you started to see the scarcity of medicine, food supplies.”
They paint that picture and more when they give their talks, which are done separately. Each man gives his own story to his respective audience. Their speaking project is funded and coordinated by The Fund for American Studies and is titled “Venezuela: My Story … Your Future?”
The program launched in October and the two have given a handful of talks at campuses so far, with many more scheduled in the coming months at universities in states such as Michigan, Texas, Oklahoma, and even in Washington D.C.
The Fund for American Studies touts the program as a chance for students to “hear the real-life stories of Venezuelan asylum seekers.”
“Andrés and Jorge had to leave their lives in Venezuela after an oppressive regime crippled the economy, caused widespread starvation, blanketed the nation in blackouts, and silenced and jailed those who dared to speak out and criticize the government. With an eyewitness perspective they answer the question: How did a country with so much wealth and promise completely collapse?”
The men told The College Fix they explain to students how socialism is at the root of all the oppression, turmoil and poverty — and how America is headed in the same direction.
“It is important to teach young audiences, they are the most vulnerable audience when it comes to being engaged with socialist ideas,” Galicia said. “American youth aren’t exposed to any hard times. We as the youth are always looking for a revolution, looking for a way to change the system. Maybe they feel socialism is the way to do that. They haven’t been through any actual crisis. The youth is going to be the decision makers of the future. If they are engaged in socialist ideas, it only shows a horrible future for America if we have to convince them socialism is not the way.”’ https://www.thecollegefix.com/meet-the-two-venezuelan-exiles-warning-college-students-against-socialism/
If you are a conservative you MUST always search far and wide for the truth for there are those out there seeking to distort facts. The media, written and visual, will lie to you and with a straight face. Yes, they will lie to you and they will even seek to hide the truth from you. President Trump is correct in calling out most of the media as FAKE NEWS.
‘Joe Biden may be the national frontrunner, but it doesn’t seem as though he’s inspired excitement amongst Iowans, at least according to the photo below of a town hall meeting in Ottumwa, IA…’
However, ‘The Des Moines Registerpublished dozens of photos from the event but, all are tightly composed, making assessing the attendance impossible. The photo published on Twitter was taken from the media section in back, and clearly shows the entirety of the room’s occupants.’
Australia is a nation proud of its so-called ‘multiculturalism’. There used to be and may still be some who play the game ‘spot an Aussie’. That simply means there are a lot of immigrants here in Australia and especially in the larger cities such as Sydney where ‘spotting’ a dinky dye Aussie is sometimes very hard to do.
Well, anyway, ‘A German man in Dresden, Germany was fired from his job after placing a sign on the bus he drove which read, in German:
“This bus is steered by a German driver.”
A triggered passenger took a photograph of the sign and sent it to the Dresden Transport Company (DVB) through social media, demanding an explanation.
At which point the working man lost his job over such grievous and heinous thought crimes as declaring him to be from Germany, in Germany, and writing it on a piece of paper.
So let me get this straight: it’s totally OK for all the “multicultural” people coming into Germany from the Middle East and North Africa to completely fail to assimilate, to maintain their own language, customs, religion, and sense of respect for the law, and to remain in Germany, supported by German taxpayers.
These people bring strength through diversity.
But a German man, in Germany, is verboten from hanging a simple sign in the bus that he is employed to drive which says he’s German?
Beto O’Rourke is typical of the loony leftist, Democrat, Republican crowd who believe a woman not only has the right to so-called safe sex with a contraceptive but if that doesn’t work they have the right to murder the baby as well. What kind of thinking is this?
The loony left is so far out there (wherever there is) they do not think they have any responsibility for the results of their outlandish talk or behaviour. They use double-speak. For instance, on one side they promote the Me-Too Movement but nay a word about how women are treated in Islamic nations. The Loonies of the Left were heard loud and clear when the maniac murderer shot and killed 50 Muslims in New Zealand but are deafening silent when hundreds of Christians are murdered by Islamists in Nigeria!
The Loony Left is out of control! For a sane person, the loony left is discernable very quickly and Beto O’Rourke and many (if not most) of the new Devilcrats in Washington fit the criteria.
Ask those Muslims who live in your present-day democratic nation if they accept what is occurring in Pakistan regarding Asia Bibi? Their answer will tell you a lot concerning the Religion of Peace and the future of democratic nations that overlook this fact!
‘“The philosophy of Karl Marx, when applied, has created some of the greatest episodes of human suffering in all of history,” Marion Smith, director of the Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation, said in stunned response to the announcement that European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker will join in a celebration of Marx’s 200th birthday on May 5, in Trier, Germany. Trier was where Marx was born and raised.
Juncker (shown) is slated to give a speech at the unveiling of a statue of Marx in Trier. The statue was a gift from the Communist government of China. Juncker’s participation will give the event a lot of stature, considering that he heads the European Commission, the executive arm of the European Union (EU). And it perhaps will also serve to illustrate the totalitarian mindset at the top of the EU.
