Leftists warned you that someone like Trump was the inevitable result of the capitalist system before he was elected. And here you are, eight years later STILL scapegoating the left for another fascist turn.
Leftists have no fucking idea what they’re talking about. So no, they didn’t warn shit. Because no one with any intelligence takes them seriously.
Trump isn’t not a “inevitable result of capitalism”. He’s an inevitable result of ignorance and stupidity. There have been many, MANY presidents that served under capitalism that weren’t anything like him. So stop with that bullshit. Besides…
You honestly think greed doesn’t exist under socialism?
Seriously?
Someone like Trump can be created by socialism just as easily. It’s happened before.
Additionally. There is NO blueprint for a working system of socialism in America. NONE. Pretty o much anyone that knows anything about it on an academic level knows it won’t work and has said as much. And as far as leftists go, none of you have a clue about it enough to do any more than copypasta one another’s pseudo-intellectual nonsense on it.
So please… step away from the mic.
Ask a socialist why they hate capitalism, and they'll give you a myriad of reasons. Ask a capitalist why they hate socialism and they'll describe capitalism.
Cute anecdote. Utter bullshit, but cute. Though I’m sure that’s also copypasta because I’ve seen your comment history- you’re not that clever.
Now before I end this discussion, I want to point something it that I think makes a good point to the matter:
Look around.
No, seriously….. look around.
No one on lemmy takes the far-left seriously except the far left. You’re all downvoted into obscurity almost all the time- on a platform that is known to lean towards YOUR bias. This should tell you something. In fact, this should tell you a lot!
First and foremost, it shows that the majority of people here think that you’re wrong. And secondly, that the majority of people here are getting fed up with entering your rhetoric. Every time one of you pop up, someone with logic and empirical evidence shows up to be the whack to your mole. And its usually a lot more then just someone- it’s many.
And often.
And seemingly none of you ever have anything of substance to counter. Just “Nuuuhh uhhhhhh!” and trollish attempts to report people for simply disagreeing with you.
So respond in kind, it won’t really matter. Because come November- we ALL know you’re going to disappear along with the rest of them and the only evidence that you were ever here will reside in a comment history where you were shown the door-
And often.
'Til chilly November then, snowflake!
Loving the civility. You have nothing. Thanks for proving my point.
