Dinner party guests...

Who would you like to invite to a dinner party for some sparkling and heated conversation... I'm imagining the following.

Karl Marx... For his views on communism as imagined
Stalin. .. Communism as an excuse
Henry Ford.. To try to counter the above
And maybe Ghandi for a totally different viewpoint

What do you think, someone dead before dessert is served?

Awwww! 💖💖💖 I don't understand politics very well but I know for 100% definite I am left wing by American standards but maybe only left of centre by the rest of the world! 🤔🤔🤔 I strongly believe in universal healthcare that is free paid by taxes and I also believe in a strong welfare safety net system for the eldery and disabled and I think jobs should allow paid sick leave and paid vacation time and obviously free education at least until college! 🤗🤗🤗 I believe in socialised healthcare, socialised welfare and socialised programs to help the poor, elderly, sick and disabled but I don't think socialism should go any further than that! 😝😝😝 My favourite politician ever is Bernie Sandars and I love AOC as well! 😁😁😁

@NativePortlander1970 My oldest son is severely disabled and is non verbal and has the mind of a toddler so him getting a job is impossible so I believe in welfare to help the disabled and us parents take care of him! 🤗🤗🤗 Bernie Sandars and AOC are two of the rare politicians that promote universal healthcare unlike pretty much every Republican and most Democrats so that is why I have a soft spot for those two! 🥰🥰🥰 AOC and Bernie Sanders definitely are not perfect but they are the closest thing America has to a true left wing that supports everyone including the poor and disabled and not just the richest few! 💖💖💖
@MommyLucy No, they are not, both are sellouts to neoliberalism, which supports corporate healthcare, they do not walk their talk. I voiced for Sanders so hard during my state's caucus my precinct wanted to make me a delegate, but I didn't feel good enough to accept. Once Bernie supported Hillary I knew he was a fake. By the end of AOC's first term, she was caucusing with the neolib dems in Congress, another sellout.

@NativePortlander1970 Awww! 💖💖💖 Please don't be sad about my precious son's disability! 😥😥😥 Cause I have autism myself I believe in autism acceptance as if you take my sons severe autism or my mild autism away we wouldn't be ourselves anymore if that makes sense! 🤗🤗🤗 My precious son may be disabled but he is happy and healthy and I wouldn't change him for the stars in the sky instead I just want him to be happy and know he is loved dearly! 💫💫💫

No bloodshed, I think Gandhi would keep it civil 🙂

I would have:

Adam Smith . . optimistic sage of the age of capitalism
Friedrich Engels . . disenchanted millowner
John Maynard Keynes . . International man of action
William Beveridge . . pragmatic caretaker

Coffee to be accompanied by a Q&A session from Friedrich Hayek and Margaret Thatcher.

@Convivial It's not easy. At school I once tried an experiment in the redistribution of public goods . . but the cake turned out to be private property and the revolution soon fizzled out 😟
Convivial · 26-30, F
@SunshineGirl I think the correct term is "purloined" 🤣... But I do give you credit for a certain robin hood aspect to the act... Unless you were going to be the sole recipient of the above mentioned redistribution 🤔

@Convivial I took it from the kitchen. It was going to go stale if it hadn't been eaten that evening 😩

Please invite Warren Buffet to the table.
Convivial · 26-30, F
@SW-User good choice!

I'd go with MLK Jr, Jimi Hendrix, Salvador Dali, Marx, Aurelius and Jesus.
Convivial · 26-30, F
@SW-User that would be an interesting group, I notice you don't have any of the " opposition" ?
SW-User
@Convivial I don't party like that 😂 I've seen enough opposition. I just want to be around people who understand peace.
Convivial · 26-30, F
@SW-User don't we all ....

Perikles of Athens
Cosmo Medici of Florence
Sir John Macdonald of Canada
Barack Obama
Sadam Hussein
Convivial · 26-30, F
@Muthafukajones might be the only thing they agree on
Muthafukajones · 46-50, M
@Convivial I think Macdonald would tell Barack…. I told you guys the right to bear arms was a bit too unlimited!!! Big laughs around the table!
Convivial · 26-30, F
@Muthafukajones funny how these things come back to bite us
justlooking2023 · 56-60, M
What would be on the menu? I see them figuring out to to share a whole wide assortment of apps.
MissSass2209 · 41-45, F
Goodness you’re brave!!
Convivial · 26-30, F
@MissSass2209 better make that clean freak a licensed forensic one...i think Stalin will cause problems😜
MissSass2209 · 41-45, F
@Convivial good thinking - not sure I could cope with blood stains in the carpet long term.
Convivial · 26-30, F
@MissSass2209 or the soul ...
I would enjoy sitting down with Jordan Peterson. Also, with Gabor Maté.
Royrogers · 61-69, M
Royrogers · 61-69, M
How about Mary Quant, judith Durham and mary Berry
Convivial · 26-30, F
@Royrogers interesting but would they have heated discussions?
Royrogers · 61-69, M
@Convivial does it have to be heated? Can it not just be interesting ?
Montanaman · M
Jim Morrison. 😎
I'd like to create some Deep poetry with him 😁😎✍️

My dead parents, my three children, my grandparents...

If it were romantic, it would be my fiancé or the men in my fantasies, and they would fuck me on the table and do many bad things to me

I would never invite Karl Marx or Stalin. What have they got to say that is interesting? I thought most people realized that communism is absurd? Is it a comedy night? "Dark comedy with Stalin"
