> Simple: Socialism and crony capitalism are both bad, therefore they’re the same thing. These people live in a world containing only two things, Good and Evil. America is good and Christianity is good, therefore America is Christian. Abortion is evil and gays are evil, therefore gays have abortions. America is good, and both Nazis and Communists fought against America, therefore Germany and Russia were allies in World War II. I’ve heard my father advance all of these arguments.
