It is a two party system. We don't have any other options. When a socialist wants to run they run Democrat. Fascists run as Republican.

    Lol, you deserve to be ruled by fascists.

    There were six different candidates on my 2024 Presidential ballot. I voted for Gloria La Riva.

    The only reason "only" a candidate from the Republicrat Wall St Fellator party can win is because dumb fucks believe only one of them can win. That's it. There is no other reason. Stop being a dumb fuck, stop voting to support genocide, and stop treating people who support a genocide as if they're normal and doing nothing wrong while treating people who won't cosign on a genocide as if they're the reason your preferred Neoliberal ghoul lost the last popularity contest.

    Is it just me or I see it calling out the DNC cult who think they're leftists.

    Aren't you the ones always waiting for the next election that will magically "fix" everything and return to status quo of being unaffected by your foreign policies while it ravages people abroad?

    There are actual good people going out protesting, recording, blockading, deterring ICE. There's people destroying surveillance tech, stopping data centers being built, shaming big oil/military industry execs at their own meetups. There's ethical people openly calling out rapists, zionists, homophopic, racists, corrupt politicians, pigs and judges.

    ^This is actual progress. They're most likely going to vote while also making the ruling class afraid.

    Then there are people whose only thought process goes:

    • "one more election, bro"
    • "just one more election, bro"
    • "it'll fix everything, bro"
    • "just vote blue, bro"
    • "it'll work this time, bro"
    • "come on, bro, this is all or nothing, bro"
    • "I don't care about war crimes, just let me have my cheap gas, bro"
    • "Come on, bro. If you don't vote blue, the other side is much worse bro"
    • "they have no serious platform except populist propaganda, but they'll only kill children in middle east and that's fine by me, bro"
    • "please, bro. just one more election, bro"

    Weak

    Laos doesn't get much attention because they haven't had much chance to develop after the US razed the whole country to the ground and left a bunch of mines and unexploded ordinance that are still being removed to this day. But they do have a communist party in charge, and China has been actively helping them recently.

    By almost every metric they were massively successful seeing some of the largest leaps in life expectancy in history side by side with the largest strides in poverty alleviation, infant mortality and more.

    If you exclude just China alone from global poverty statistics global poverty by headcount is worse today than in 1981.

    Not that you really care you just want to pontificate from your soapbox about "the silly Marxists" who dare to actually wish for and push for better.

    Americans care about freedom. You should probably learn this

    So we've moved from most people to Americans. Interesting. Also given America has the largest prison population in the world in raw numbers not even per capita I'm not sure that's particularly true, especially when American prisons are by design essentially slavery.

    Americans care about freedom

    Yes the freedom to be free to be terrible and racist to others, or be free to appear to get the chance to be extraordinarily wealthy not anything related to actual freedom

    Other people have talked about socialist revolutions, which are indeed great examples. But we can't forget the global bourgeois revolutions that lead to capitalism throughout the world. Without those we would still be stuck in feudalism. While capitalism has many flaws it's much better than feudalism in many ways.

    Yeah you can spot these types pretty easily in this thread.

    What are the tells?

    any time you see someone respond to the truth: “there is a two party system in every election and one of them will win whether you like it or not”

    With: “both sides do genocide”

    So you deny that the Democrats are contributing towards the genocide? Or that you're just being honest and that you don't care?

    It’s obvious they might not actually tie their own shoelaces.

    It's obvious you lot have no object permanence.

    The point is that it’s a non-sequiter. “Buh both sides.” Isn’t a sane response to “one of them is going to win anyway.”

    So what is your thought on the genocide? Seems like you can justify voting for it since "one of them is going to win anyway"?

    Political beliefs cannot be cleanly or even roughly divided by giving people labels. And certainly not by placing all people on one side of a dichotomy.

    One side of a dichotomy

    If the dichotomy is "do you find supporting genocide acceptable", I find that separating the people who do from the people who don't actually begins to solve a great deal of problems.

    [X] genocide apologist, [X] Zionist, [X] smug, [X] racist and dehumanizing retorts to any replies that contradicts their fascist views, [X] no object permanence, [X] can't comprehend more than 1 person existing at a given time???, [X] BLUEMAGA

    It’s that time of the two year election cycle again.

    Yeah, time for you to wake up from your hibernation and VOTE before hibernating again for 2 years.

    [X] Communism/Socialism

    lol they've been saying this all year and you only notice this now because you just woke up

    [X] Stories about how both parties are the same.

    As usual, you can hibernate peacefully when it's the blue party doing genocide. Very nice of you for being a "shill" for genocide.

    [ X ] Right Wing Shills masquerading as Leftists.

    What's a leftist, according to you? You're really not beating the BlueMAGA stereotype.

    Yep, it’s a Giga-brain move to push away any and all support for left wing candidates opposing Republicans because they don’t agree with your entire personal platform.

    That or your just a Right Wing shill getting their jollies masquerading as a leftist.

    I'm genuinely asking what you define as leftist. I am not Amerikan. I don't know what you would as it doesn't seem to align with the global norm for what others would call leftist.

    But I suppose everyone who doesn't prostrate at your feet and revere your moral and intellectual superiority is a bot or a shill or otherwise less than.

    You really do see all those who don't revere you as less than, bots, and shills. No wonder you can be so flippantly pro genocide.

    It was a really normal question as well to be this much of an asshole about it really shows the kind of person you are.

    No, I’m just Pro-don’t fuck around.

    Unfortunately people feel the need to fuck around a lot.

    People defending themselves from genocide is "fucking around"?

    Like are you REALLY saying they deserve it? Are you fucking serious?

    Mmm I’m a bit hazy but things were a lot more peaceful prior to October 7.

    Because you didn't care. You REALLY do lack object permanence. You REALLY think history started that day huh? Are you allergic to reading? Can only do reactionary lashing out?

    You really are blueMAGA, like there is no more perfect example of one than you.
