    What has Bernie done to cease the existence of billionaires? Show me his voting record on foreign fucking policy and explain how that has helped undermine imperialist expansion. Fuck right off. Clement Attlee motherfucker

    They’re not wrong, though. Bernie and AOC have done so much for the working class, like, ummm…uhhhh…they, uhhhh….ummmm….look, idfk, being successful in your goals is for redfash authoritarian state capitalist tankies, anyway, which we are not.

      Like voting to send billions of dollars in weapons to neonazis. That has certainly helped the working class more than China lifting about a billion people out of poverty, right?

      I don’t appreciate your sarcasm. Remember the dress? Now THAT was praxis. Lenin could’ve learned a thing or two from AOC. Maybe he should’ve spent less time dedicating his life to the liberation of the working class and more time making fashion statements.

          “There is no act too small”

          Clearly. Next thing we’ll hear about how AOC took a shit for freedom. Our hero ❤

        If AOC wears another dress, the rich are so fucked, they might as well give up.

    CPC: actually in power.

    Bernie: “It is your moral duty to vote for Hillary Clinton as the lesser of two evils”

    “Leftists” and not reading theory go hand-in-hand. Meanwhile, the rest of the world that engages with their material conditions, rather than obstinately insisting they can be subverted, will continue to progress towards communism, even if that does mean heeding the necessity of developing your productive forces before you try to obliterate your opposition.

      Not only do they not read theory, they don’t read period. 99% of Americans are completely illiterate regarding foreign policies or how things function in other countries.

          No exaggeration, the average American adult reads at an 8th grade level (13 year olds). Nearly 1/4 are illiterate, while nearly half have low literacy. And our scores broken out by skills skew particularly bad on critical analysis and inference

            It’s up to 8th Grade now? :P

            (Honestly I forget how USonian grades work) It’s honestly amazing that an ostensibly ‘developed’ country can even function in this situation. I guess the US doesn’t really function at all and it’s just superprofits keeping them afloat.

    Of course Merrick Deville liked it. One of the worst clout chasers around. I think she got outed for verbally abusing her cleaning lady.

    https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/multipolarista/id1621947548?i=1000566281462 This is shameful for them to portray genuine Socialists this way, Benjamin Norton reported on China’s decrease in Billionaires, also as cringe as it is to say, Western Billionaires=oligarchs because Capitalist Democratic institutions are based on donations and fundings from the bourgeoisie, whereas the billionaires of CPC have virtually zero power over government. Best example would be billionaires that join the CPC, but even then(not many of them) they are watched closely by the party, especially given Xi Jinping’s newest efforts of getting rid of corruption within the party. If you are a billionaire in the CPC, you are one member of 90+ million others, so your word as an owner means jack shit to the party unless you tow the party line, which eventually means making this billionaire fellow within the CPC a multimillionaire because if the policies work as planned, he should lose wealth so it would be distributed more fairly among the people, but anyways, what do YOU suggest, Mr. Bernie ‘Gramders? Tax them?😂
