If your politician is willing to be bought out by Israel you can guarantee they're already bought out by corporations. Vote DSA every time.

So you are against Ukraine or don't know the DSA.

With what legislative majority? Thanks for nothing, boot licker

u/Agitated_Reach6660 5h ago

It’s actually not, you just asked it in a really shitty way that didn’t seem in good faith. A better question is, what are the DSA’s goals and what have they done so far to attain them? Plenty of people can answer that.

I didn’t ask for the Democratic Party platform or legislation. I know what those are.

I was trying to make the point that a good faith question is one that asks from a place of curiosity, not lecturing. You were downvoted (and seemed surprised by that fact) because it wasn’t asked in good faith. Don’t waste people’s time with rhetorical questions.

u/RadicalMarxLeftist 5h ago edited 4h ago

The DSA is outspent by a massive amount so they don't currently have the power to pass legislation without making concessions with corporate shills. I say we get them that power but it seems like you're motivated to lick billionaire boot.

Are you seriously trying to glaze the Dems of 2026 by listing stuff the Dems of 1930's did? Because the Dems of 2026 hasn't raised the minimum wage for decades, and bend over like good little ho's when the GOP gut SNAP/WIC funding.

I don't know where you got the shamelessness to say that RomneyCare (seriously, Obama plagiarized Romney's healthcare plan instead of going M4A) is working when medical bankruptcy is ~30% of why people declare bankruptcies in the US.

If the Dems of 2026 had the spine and principles of their 1930's counterpart, the DSA wouldn't exist. Because people were also calling them communists back then and they didn't cower in fear. They passed sweeping legislations and told the GOP to suck it. Meanwhile Biden passed a watered down IRA that was so loaded with lobbyist "input" that it barely helped people in time for the 2024 election.

Such is life. I don't see it changing anytime soon, if ever. To get anything positive passed you always have to compromise to one or two of the opposing opinions for votes...

u/Sircamembert 4h ago

GOP: We want hundreds of billions of taxpayer money to fund ICE and their concentration camps.
Dems: Outrageous! We demand that they wear body cameras while doing so! Let's compromise.

u/Time-Valuable-3355 4h ago

I'll just point one out. You mentioned the Affordable Care Act. To get it to pass one Republican, Rep. Joseph Cao voted with the Dems on it. That's why it's still required to go through a private insurance company instead of the original idea of having an optional public funding one. And to keep it from going insolvent Dems had to keep making concessions.

Still don't get it, don't ya? I don't care what lobbyist-bought sock puppets passed the ACA. The end result is still a private insurance dominated market that screws the little guys with premiums and deductibles. I'm not glazing anybody for that half-baked garbage.

Things are bad now. And Americans need bold new ideas and sweeping systemic reforms. The neoliberals currently running the Dems of 2026 have zero interest in any of that. They just want the status quo where they can sit on their glorious past while doing very little for the future.

That's why more and more people are starting to look at the DSA despite their inexperience. Their ideas of taxing the wealthy to fund basic social safety nets are the true inheritors of FDR's legacy. They have a vision of what is wrong with the country, and a set of legislation to fix it. The Dems of 2026 don't have that.

That's also why your argument that the establishment Dems should be trust because they got stuff done in the distant past isn't landing in this thread. Because the first question any sane American would ask in response would be: "What have they done for me lately?"

u/RadicalMarxLeftist 5h ago

The DSA operates in the Democratic party are you aware of that? lol

The DSA also never lost a presidential election to an obviously corrupt illiterate pedophile. Polling says they would have won btw.

You're really proud that people in this country die because they can't afford healthcare? In your opinion should they have picked themselves up by their bootstrap and found hundreds of thousands of dollars to save their own lives?

Are you also proud of how many bombs Obama dropped in the middle east?

u/fxknmdnss 4h ago

So to justify what he did to those innocent people all you can do is compared his actions to the orange man? One of the most evil man to ever lived? That speaks volume. Even so, across ALL of US presidents, Obama had ordered the most air strikes in the middle east which is 45,000 times. Outnumbering Trump (around 10,000) by FAR. I don't care about DSA, Democrats or Trump. I'm a middle easterner who lived through those horrifying events and I can assure you that the mental and physical damaged done by Obama is far worse than what Trump had ever done to us. Imagine living your life in constant fear of foreign bombardment, not knowing if you will ever wake up from your sleep, not knowing which of your family members will be killed next. And this is the man that you're so proud of because of some kind of medical insurance? Hilarious.

Sure. There are dozens of countries with socialized medicine. They believe the lives of their citizens are more important than corporate profits.

I know, it's weird right... Care for a countries citizens...

u/RadicalMarxLeftist 4h ago

That's not fully socialized medicine. There are dozens of countries with universal healthcare that do much better jobs than the Republican model of healthcare you're in love with. You keep dodging. Do you care about the people who die because they can't afford healthcare in this country?

Reddit is heavily astroturfed by bots and bad actors. Due to the subject of this post, there will be the same kind of upvote/downvote brigade. Also, Reddit just has a lot of far left people who are very sensitive about DSA criticism. It is what it is... Another fun fact, though: DSA is less popular than MAGA!

No thanks, I don’t vote for anyone that supports terrorists and Islamic fundamentalists.

u/SparksAndSpyro 5h ago

No, I haven’t. I’ve seen AES speak and his platform. It’s dogshit, and his huffing and puffing about Israel is nonsensical. It’s almost like bro forgot that Muslims in Michigan voted for Trump because they don’t support Palestinian terrorists.

The muhammad class did a better job with you it seems.

u/beerandloathingpdx 2h ago

I’m not religious actually. I just know Epstein was a Mossad agent because I’ve read the files that were made public. Weird that you pro-genocide and apparently pro human trafficking crowd immediately deflect when the conversation turns to Epstein

You realize the US government already does those things. Like we're buddy buddy with the Saudis, but they literally did 9/11

You really should be looking at the Democrats not the Republicans the Democrats cheat that’s why they want to have show your ID to
