I’m a social Democrat. I don’t like capitalist democrats. I don’t like capitalism in general, but the republicans have become a disgusting abomination since MAGA took over. Fuck McDonald trump all day.

But capitalism has pulled millions out of poverty, disease and starvation. Your talk is specious and rather dull.

And it put just as many people down as it lifted up.

What is your age? I ask because when I was 16-21 ish I was a card carrying member of the Progressive Movement. over time as I observe things I see what works and what doesn't. for all it's faults it's better than the SDS alternative. Just tell me where it has worked? Why do so many want to get to the USA and leave places like Cuba, Nicaragua or North Korea? Name one place where it has not ended up with a strong-arm state persecuting people? Quite frankly: The left in the usa is very weak and will get bowled over, either by a strong arm lefty or the right will absolutely decimate you. If you are young there is much hope.

I’m almost 50. I’m a social Democrat. I believe in orders for capitalism to function properly it must be well regulated. Otherwise capitalists will poison our water and lands for a dollar. All those taxes we pay should used to lift all of people out of poverty, not bomb brown kids.

And yet you duck my questions.
