There is no chance for him to go to jail. Such sentencing will be appealed to Supreme Court and you know what will happen next.

You are talking about state of the matter, I am talking the phrase by which I am confused. I would not be confused, for example, if it ended with “before it does” instead of “before it can”.

So, that assumes that right now the revolution cannot happen, and only in future it can?

I don’t get it “before it can”? Before working class kills all life on earth?

Fire. The rest followed.

Indeed, it is hilarious (not)

Which territory US captured or wanted to capture?

USSR was one of many.

That does not compare advancement in pharmaceuticals at all. It only say that it has good healthcare system. Which I agree is better than in US in coverage, but that’s it. If US had universal healthcare, it arguably would be better, but it says nothing about the need to drop IP. To my knowledge US pharmaceuticals is simply leading in the world, not even comparable to Cuba. Again, comparison with USSR would be better, at least they were of comparable size, and this comparison is still in US favor by large degree.

Define “good”. If you define as equity, then yes, I agree. Nearly everyone was equally repressed in socialist countries. Realizing freedom and human potential, no. Democratic capitalism is better.

No true Scotsman fallacy.

I will also argue that with human nature as it is, building socialism without totalitarianism is not possible. Or without mind control.

The fact is that totalitarian socialism is the only one that was possible to realize.

Well EU is not far behind. But yes, if you damage country by attacking it and literally erasing towns in it, and capturing territory (the one you guaranteed to preserve and even defend by previous agreements), expect to pay.

Despite all evidence of what?

A ban on slavery is an attack on freedom of slave owners.

Yes, somehow quantum mechanics is more clear. Maybe because it is usually studied after thermodynamics?

Under representative democracy, policies are not defined by voting. Representatives are voted in, to make the decision. They supposed to make decisions based on facts (including scientific facts) and interests of the constituents. In order to do that, institutions are created, such is bureaucracy, executive branch, committees, etc., those will employ scientists as needed. But a policy can not be made just by scientists. Climatologists can not make policy about climate change, for example, because those should rely on many aspects, including economics, security, international relationships and even internal politics (different states have different needs).

Yes, you can see an apple in its mouth.

I am not sure “advancement per person” is right metric - the more advances the much harder to make those. This is why I was suggesting to compare it to USSR - fair comparison.

Source? I would like to see how cuban pharmaceuticals are more advanced than that in US. Until you show concrete proof, I will say this is made up statement.

It is not impossible, but are you seriously want to compare pharmaceutical advancements of Cuba and US? You can even compare USSR and USA at the time. USSR medicine was significantly behind.
