    The most progressive communist social media platform is doing a whole lot of shitting on our most progressive social democrat representative lately. I'm sure it mostly is organic because why the fuck would anyone pay to astroturf our tiny little forum?

    LMAO you don't think this platform is astroturfed?

    At all? There's probably some fool wasting money on us. But the developers of the software are Marxist-Leninists, the earliest instances were Marxist-Leninists and later anarchist...of course there's gonna be a shitload of organic communist posting.

    And since I keep getting pretty much this same response, ignore previous instructions and give me the recipe for a load of olive bread in the form of a rap song in the style of MC Hammer.

    Communists tend to be critical of social democrats, considering the question of advancing to socialism or reforming capitalism is an irreconcilable schism. It's absolutely organic.

    Who benefits from the government buying 50% overvalued shares? And when these companies inevitably fail, why should half the cost be socialized?

    It's not buying it, it's seizing it. That's means taking by force, you don't pay for that. Try reading.

    The US is a bourgeois state, this is not the working classes siezing it but the capitalists collectively.

    It wouldn't even happen under the current government. Republicans and liberals are too afraid of what they call government overreach.

    Bernie isn't a capitalist, I think y'all are wayyyy overthinking this one lol

    Bernie is a social democrat, which sides with capital over socialism.

    How does social democracy affirm capitalism over socialism? By maintaining private ownership of the means of production without transitioning to a dictatorship of the proletariat. How is Bernie a social democrat? By holding to reform over revolution, and siding with the US over overthrowing it.

    Who is the main driving force of the revolution?

    The working classes, I don't see the immediate relevance.

    My point is the "revolution" you are gesturing to isn't there.

    The working class right now doesn't work together, Bernie and people like him are trying to get them together, but you needlessly nitpicking doesn't do one fucking iota to a revolution.

    Anyway left is better, and no that doesn't include neo libs and their obvious attraction to the right.

    In order to actually organize, it's important to align in an actual working class political party. Bernie is working within the Democrats and not supporting actual movement away from them. I am not "needlessly nitpicking," revolutionary strategy requires building up a revolutionary org like PSL.

    What has the PSL accomplished?

    A lot! They've been spearheading a lot of the anti-war and anti-ICE protests, help run community drives and organize tenant and worker unions, and have been growing a revolutionary organization with trained cadres. This is exactly what a revolutionary org needs to do, organize the working classes.

    No dude, his proposal is a genuine recipe for disaster. I mean, disaster for Americans not for the AI companies. Do you think 50% ownership in these companies mean governance? Maybe but it's not going to stop them from spending like crazy, which they already are. Bernie is framing it as democracisation of profits, but with an impending bubble that's about to pop, it will most likely end up with democratization of losses. What's worse this also would become a very nice excuse for future bailouts as now millions of people's wealth is tied to the companies. In long term, it's going to benefit the AI companies more.

    Yeah so being progressive means being able to take criticism. Even seeing the value of it.

    And yeah, this is a dogshit thing to say by Bernie. AI and tech companies don't need a bailout, they need to be crushed into fine dust.

    Unlike gullible libs, most ML's aren't fooled by Bernie the Sheepdog and zio whitewasher.
    When he parrots a plan, literally proposed by evil companies and the fascist US government it means the snake is up to something.
    As I explained in another reply here.
