In the darkest corners of their souls, many people have personal aspirations to attain godhood in their own little worlds. And if they cannot achieve such godhood outright on their own, then they will join a mob with similar aspirations so that they can at least feel omnipotent through vicarious tyranny.

This is why collectivism and individualism are mutually exclusive.

This is why collectivism and individualism are mutually exclusive.

And in the far more common lighter corners of their souls, most people form groups for mutual support and greater collective good, from community organizations to governments by election and representation.

That's why only a special cherry-picking idiot would claim collectivism and individualism are mutually exclusive. Reality is, greater individual aspirations are reached in communal structures.

Bernie Sander's dear leader friend from Venezuela is reaching out his vicious animal paw to President Trump:

VENEZUELA'S MADURO: 'MR. DONALD TRUMP, HERE IS MY HAND'

CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) -- Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro said he wants a meeting with President Donald Trump, the same man he ridicules as a crass imperial magnate, as the U.S. weighs slapping crippling economic sanctions on his socialist administration.

In a lengthy address Thursday to members of a new, all-powerful constitutional assembly, Maduro instructed Venezuela's foreign minister to approach the United States about arranging a telephone conversation or meeting with Trump at next month's United Nations General Assembly.

In a lengthy address Thursday to members of a new, all-powerful constitutional assembly, Maduro instructed Venezuela's foreign minister to approach the United States about arranging a telephone conversation or meeting with Trump at next month's United Nations General Assembly.

Compare the above two paragraphs, as presented by bozo x, with what was actually presented in his own link:

CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) -- President Nicolas Maduro asked the pro-government constitutional assembly Monday to investigate the opposition for allegedly supporting Donald Trump's remarks on using military action to resolve Venezuela's political crisis.

Addressing a rally of government supporters, Maduro said Trump's comments were prompted by the failure of the opposition's campaign to oust him after months of destabilizing protests."

Proof positive that natural-born fraudsters promote and vote for natural-born fraudsters.

You are nothing but a mental three yr. old wearing an adult-sized Viking helmet, and making every effort to make sure everybody knows it.

It's not cute.
