    I think I don’t understand the context because you’re not responding in context, you’re just continuing an imaginary conversation you’ve had elsewhere because you saw some keywords.

      You seem really upset about me discussing how genuine this sentiment is and where it leads. Are you feeling defensive about something?

        Are you questioning whether Joseph Stiglitz is a secret communist? Because that’s the only genuine sentiment at play for your top level comment. If you instead wanted to call out some other poster and argue with them about communism, maybe you should have replied to that person?

        Or maybe you should have read the article before you commented so you wouldn’t have to be trying to figure out a post hoc justification about the nonexistent context making your comment correct all along.

          Lol nah, it could just be coincidence, but imagine this hypothetical:

          If the only two times you hear a phrase like “you should buy white tires” was from Joseph Stiglitz and a demon whom wants you to off yourself, and the demon said it first, how would that make you feel about the message?

          The fact that it is one of their main talking points or assertions while attacking the USA shows there is some nuanced truth to the statement.
