nice

please stop smoking crack, it’s not good for you https://www.piie.com/research/piie-charts/2024/chinas-private-sector-has-lost-ground-state-sector-has-gained-share-among

sure hope so

also true

it’s just such a perfect allegory for how practically every startup out there works

anything but admitting that capitalism is working exactly as intended

Somehow people in other countries manage to do it, but I suppose it’s always possible that Americans are a special breed of stupid.

No, only an absolute imbecile would suggest that. My plan is to educate people and do what I can to help organize people outside a rigged political system in order to build an actual worker movement with teeth such as MAS in Bolivia. This starts with building unions, mutual aid groups, tenant organizations, and so on.

Cuban social system isn’t being abandoned period. Please stop spreading ultra nonsense on here.

Next you’ll be telling me that China and Vietnam abandoned socialism because they use markets.

Because voting has been historically the most effective way to defeat fascism.

They did no such thing.

Marxism has never been utopian lmfao

Meanwhile in the real world, even libertarian cato institute found that communism and socialism are popular among anybody who’s not a fossil https://www.cato.org/blog/new-poll-nearly-half-americans-dont-know-what-americas-250th-celebrating

Not only that, but the numbers are rising since their poll last year https://www.cato.org/blog/young-americans-socialism-too-much-thats-problem-libertarians-must-fix

So, it’s pretty clear that there is no optics problem in practice. The reality is that liberals are just opposed to socialism because they represent the left wing of fascism.

it does seem rather unlikely

Honestly, being as cynical as I am, even I did a double take reading it.

the least racist liberal has logged on everybody

I’m sure it’s a demographic, but yeah not sure how popular this really is

^ how to say you’re as gullible as a child

After a three-week trial, a jury found eight of nine protesters guilty of “providing material support to terrorists”, among other crimes. For the Sotos, this “material support” included owning a “printing press” used to print anarchist zines and being part of a leftist book club, the federal government argued. The couple had already left the scene by the time guns were drawn. All eight of the defendants sentenced so far have received unusually harsh sentences – 30 to 100 years – essentially life in prison.
