    You must be young - to be promoting communism, so misguided.

    What “stronger party” do Leftists have to work with?

    The democrats, Dopey.

    This idea that you can have a communist government that truly works for the people is a farce. It ignores who we are as a people. The only way is capitalism with strong social programs. Representatives like AOC are the ones standing up for real viable change, not PSL.

    If the constituents supporting PSL would get off their high horse and help us get majority power over congress you would see meaningful change.

    But, no. Let’s promote fucking communism. You are truly lost.

      The Democrats are a far-right genocidal imperialist party, why would you think they are left?

      That’s a fantasy. Capitalism with strong social programs still depends on Imperialism, and sees sliding worker protections. Capitalism is inherently unsustainable, it’s already a farce to pretend it isn’t. AOC hasn’t made real, viable change.

      If the constituents supporting PSL would get off their high horse and help us get majority power over congress you would see meaningful change.

      Impossible to do, for one, and for two, the Democrats stand for Imperialism and Capitalism, that’s never going to happen.

      You are extremely condescending for someone who believes in utter fantasy. I’d like you to explain what you mean by denouncing Communism, you don’t have any points thus far, just gestures.

      But, no. Let’s promote fucking communism. You are truly lost.

      Please, elaborate. Explain what’s wrong with Communism and why you support a brutal, dying Empire that is only ever getting worse over time.

        Bro, you’re a commie of course I’m condescending.

        [Socialist programs are] a fantasy

        I guess we’re living in a fantasy: States:

        1. Social Security
        2. Medicare
        3. Medicaid
        4. Public Education
        5. The Affordable Care Act (ACA)
        6. Unemployment Insurance
        7. SNAP
        8. Not to mention Minimum Wage

        The only thing PSL will disenfranchise are programs like those.

          Bro, you’re a commie of course I’m condescending.

          And yet you can’t explain any of your points, or explain why you aren’t a Communist. Peak liberalism.

          I guess we’re living in a fantasy: States:

          1. Social Security - One of the higher retirement ages

          2. Medicare - single payer is cheaper

          3. Medicaid - single payer is cheaper

          4. Public Education - woefully underfunded and college isn’t free

          5. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) - single payer is cheaper

          6. Unemployment Insurance - pathetically small

          7. SNAP - pathetically small

          8. Not to mention Minimum Wage - pathetically small

          You have no points, just gestures. Social Programs aren’t socialism, you have no plan, just sticking with a sinking ship and trying to pretend there aren’t gaping holes in the hull.

          Explain exactly why you aren’t a Communist, if my being a Communist is enough for you to start malding. You’re on a site made by Communists, lol
