      If your cake recipe asks for flour, sugar, milk and eggs, and you decide to use piss instead of milk, and shit instead of eggs, I’m not gonna buy it when people eat your cake and say cakes taste like shit and piss, though I will agree that your particular attempt did.

      You also cannot possibly deny the role the US has played in every “failed” socialist project.

      Every time Apple tried to make the iPhone 32 it failed. It can never exist because there is no iPhone 32. History is over and humanity cannot progress. I am very smart.

      They literally took the existing theory and re-wrote it into Marxism-Leninism and then a state applied the theory.
