        Is the US somehow exceptional in that socialism can never happen here? Does the logic of capitalism not apply within the US bubble?

          USA have to first pick Kamala and do the social welfare things to get to peak growth potential. There’s lots of people that could be productive but are super fucked by no help from government whatsoever.

          For now half of people vote for idiot trump that is antithesis of anything from the left spectrum. There’s zero support for communism. Negative support even.

          And if you by any chance daydream about some sort of bloody revolution by all 126 of chronically online communists then well… clean your greasy hair and do something with life because we all have only one. Shame to waste it on pipe dreams

            Do you still see the world as a completely static entity divorced from your own agency? Because that kind of perspective would make me want to lie down in a ditch and die.

              Let’s switch to something more fun. Do you know a good recipe for original Italian margarita?
