    Why do you feel entitled to cause massive pain and suffering to others to attain your political goals?

    Massive pain and suffering is upon us and worsening by the day, whether you would risk it or not.

    Is it just because you feel like you’re in a relatively comfortable position that you think the above mass suffering is defensible? Because if this in fact a society, that suffering is our responsibility and shame upon our heads.

        He didn’t mention Trump or gave any indication that Trump is the solution. What are you on about in this comment??

          Yeah, I’m a democratic socialist. I primaried and phone banked for Sanders twice. I don’t know where she’s getting off thinking I think making the current system go full fascist is the same as starting fresh and building an equitable economy and society with social supports.

          Trump loves the current system and is a direct product of it, and his prominence is a direct result of the Reagan’s impact on the culture. He might as well be the current system’s, that I loathe, mascot.

          He’s who we are, greed and greed worship incarnate, and that’s the problem.

            Violent revolution or collapse are the only ways things will begin to improve. Our framework is too hacked for self-repair to be possible, let alone likely. Rejecting Reagan would have been the last chance of an offramp to save the current framework.

            I vote Democrat in the same way the Titanic crew kept the water pumps running, it bought a little time as they sank, it wasn’t a solution. It is a desperate play to slow the descent slightly. Biden And Trump both worship the market capitalists destroying us, to slightly different degrees. Wall Street is our society’s blight, DC is just a symptom of that.

            “Tankies” don’t own revolution and never did. Russia sucks. Putin should be assassinated. Free Palestine and Ukraine.
