So in response to vacuous trolls, simply enter them into the input and reply with the answers online.
So, what does that suggest to you?Joe Schooner_{November 21, 2021

Jerry and Joe Schooner, One of my favorite political cartoons shows a large pile of skulls and other bones. A dialog balloon from one of the skulls says "But is wasn't REAL socialism" to which another skull replies, "Oh f- off." Ignore the trolls. The vacuous posts strongly remind me of some of the A.I. that I've played with starting with Eliza and it's Rogerian psychology. You can try it yourself online, but they are very rudimentary: https://psych.fullerton.edu/mbirnbaum/psych101/Eliza.htm or https://www.eclecticenergies.com/psyche/eliza YOU: This is so old news…. ELIZA: How is that for you ? YOU: The "most stupidest….” Really? ELIZA: How do you feel about that ? So in response to vacuous trolls, simply enter them into the input and reply with the answers online. Unlike the ones linked to above, the original Eliza would also store significant nouns and verbs as variables, and then include them in the conversation. Eliza is interrogative and tries to elicit expressions of feelings. Modern chatbots can look up short paragraphs on the subject and respond to the replies in a conversation tree that can include typical ad hominems or typically unsupported counter-assertions. I believe there are sample chatbots accessible online. These will likely produce better results. What fun! -QQuerius_{November 21, 2021

Arguing over democracy, socialism and communism is fruitless as there have been no examples of any society that has truly followed any of these.Joe Schooner_{November 21, 2021

The “most stupidest….” Really?
I know it’s hard to pick when nearly everyone of your comments could win. Why don’t you nominate which of your comments should win the award.jerry_{November 21, 2021

Highly recommend
Heaven on Earth: The Rise, Fall, and Afterlife of Socialism
It’s a history of socialism and its attempt at revival. It’s the definitive book to read on the subject.
Socialism was man's most ambitious attempt to supplant religion with a doctrine claiming to ground itself in “science.” Each failure to create societies of abundance or give birth to “the New Man” inspired more searching for the path to the promised land: revolution, communes, social democracy, communism, fascism, Arab socialism, African socialism. None worked, and some exacted a staggering human toll. Then, after two centuries of wishful thinking and bitter disappointment, socialism imploded in a fin de siècle drama of falling walls and collapsing regimes. It was an astonishing denouement but what followed was no less astonishing. After the hiatus of a couple of decades, new voices were raised, as if innocent of all that had come before, proposing to try it all over again. Joshua Muravchik traces the pursuit of this phantasm, presenting sketches of the thinkers and leaders who developed the theory, led it to power, and presided over its collapse, as well as those who are trying to revive it today. Heaven on Earth is a story filled with character and event while at the same time giving us an epic chronicle of a movement that tried to turn the world upside down—and for a time succeeded.

This is so old news
Should there be a ChuckDarwin award for the most stupidest comment on UD each month. I nominate this comment by ChuckDarwin as the first winner. Of course ChuckDarwin might disagree because there are at least 20 others by him that could have won.jerry_{November 21, 2021
