    The unfortunate part of this is that even if the Dems got in, all this other bs would still be brewing until the gop got in power again anyway, and no one would be fighting as hard to establish a socialist movement right now.

    That’s just about the only silver lining, at least more people can see the consequences of the systems they enable this way. Hopefully the admin doesn’t destroy the world first…

      Ever consider the possibility fascism and socialism both suck?

      The center is being squeezed by people suffering from internet brain rot on either side pushing for failed systems of the past. You’re getting a taste of why fascism sucks. Do you need to actually experience why socialism sucks for yourself rather than just reading a history book?

      If you burn your hand on one burner on the stove do you assume that pressing it on another burner will make it better?

        You can enact some socialist policies without become a socialist society.

        Socialised healthcare and education is a no-brainer.
