Cute. And they even got their trained pet news agency to write a whole article about it

What exactly does this accomplish? Or is it just more masterbatory self-affirmation bullshit?

Voted for the resolution: Kathy Castor (FL), Henry (TX), Don Davis (NC), Jared Golden (ME), Vicente Gonzalez (TX), Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (WA), Darren Soto (FL) and Gabe Vasquez (NM).

Voted present: Reps. Chrissy Houlahan (PA) and Maggie Goodlander (NH).

What this is actually about:

This is pure Republican PR. They included a poison pill in the resolution so that Democrats would vote against it, and then they can associate those Democrats with socialism. The reality is that far more than 8 Democrats would have voted in favor of the resolution of it hadn't included that.

The Democrats who supported the resolution included:

Reps. Kathy Castor of Florida,
Henry Cuellar of Texas,
Don Davis of North Carolina,
Jared Golden of Maine,
Vicente Gonzalez of Texas,
Marie Gluesenkamp Perez of Washington,
Darren Soto of Florida and
Gabe Vasquez of New Mexico.

Those who voted present were

Reps. Chrissy Houlahan of Pennsylvania and

Theater. Get bent!

"We're capitalists. We believe in a capitalist system and rules and laws," the California lawmaker said Tuesday morning Who's we? People seriously call themselves capitalists when it's not immediately followed by a justification for slavery with extra steps, crimes against humanity, or planet-destroying surveillance technology?

The only people who can't afford socialist policies are the wealthy. And if you are reading this, that is not you.

Definite socialism.

“They’re trying to force us all into brutal gulags, suppress dissent, torture us and kill millions of people!”

— Says the people who support forced prison labor, solitary confinement, waterboarding, suppress dissent and the ongoing death of millions through economic imperialism.

Jesus was a socialist

We must condemn this disgusting idea of the government actually helping its citizens!

Okay, then disassemble your military. No more paid education, healthcare, housing and subsidized groceries. That is, after all, socialism.

Truly, that is the issue most salient in the US right now.

Not right wing authoritarianism, decay of the checks and balances, large scale vote manipulation, and the economic squeezing of the population

But two moderate Democrats — Golden [Maine] and Gluesenkamp Perez [Washington] — defected and helped the procedural vote succeed, putting some of their Democratic colleagues in a politically tricky situation. 

House Democratic leadership condemned Golden and Gluesenkamp Perez's decision later Tuesday.

"The decision by two of our colleagues to blindside the entire House Democratic Caucus and join with the Republican majority to pass a procedural rule on the brink of failing represents a significant breach of trust. It is an action that necessitates a serious response, and we have asked the Committee on Caucus Rules to take this up in short order," House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries said in a joint statement with House Minority Whip Katherine Clark and Democratic Caucus Chair Pete Aguilar.

The way this should be phrased is "Many Democrats join Republicans in condemning Social Security and Medicaid. Vowing to end social programs that help Americans."

You guys are so fucked.

Performative bullshit. Socialism already exists in this country. See US Agricultural as an example.

"in all its forms"

So, the military is condemned by the house, then? The US military is one of the biggest socialist organisations on the planet. It's almost like these fucknuts don't think before they speak.

Social - security. It's in the fucking name! Some of us will need it to survive in old age after a fucking Bank figures out how to steal our house so they can sell it to a young couple about to have a baby....to continue the cycle of labor profit extraction. Zero for is. All for them.

Labels bad, widely supported and working policies good. Too bad this congress won't actually do it's job.

The DSA's mistake was using the S word in its title. What they represent is not "socialism," and that word makes it too easy for other politicians to promote shit like this ridiculous resolution. Should have called themselves the Humanist party, or the Working Class party, or something that more closely reflects what they represent.

This is what happens when people "vote blue no matter who." I can only assume that the people who disagree with this post are those inclined to vote for Democrats like this, regardless.
