Seriously blaming the tankies again? How bourgeoisie of you lol
If you want to blame something, blame the media. Both news and social media have completely sold out for profit. You CANNOT have a democracy if vast parts of your population is being misinformed. And this started with talk radio in rural areas many decades ago. And the democrats did nothing - because they are not left. Thanks for all the empty "Hope and Change" Obama!
So yeah, blame socialists all you want but their critique was valid.
You need a revolution or reformation. A massive change in who owns the means of communication to have a free press again that is not purely profit driven. Can you even imagine that? Is that something you would say? No. You'd rather blame and denigrate socialists and call them tankies. Look at the mass protests, it seems the libs aren't even calling for Trump to step down and demand new election lol. People would rather bow to unjust laws and simplistic principles than believe in democracy. Of course they are all being stage managed.
But this is just pathetic.
I'll say what I already said during the Brexit campaign - if a politician is caught on provably lying to the public, they should be fined, put in prison and prevented from making ANY public appearances or taking public offices for life.
Most of the mainstream media is owned by a few rich fucks, corporations who strive to make money. Corporations love fascism because that gives them more power and less regulations, so ofc they do everything in their power to enable fascism.
The biggest lie I was told in school was that the market is thriving in competition, it doesn't. Corporations always want monopolies, so competitors are usurped and driven out by any means necessary.
Republicans are always evil. They don't do anything good. Ever. They're a known quantity. That's what we expect of them.
We expect the Dems to be better. And they get the smoke when they fail at that. Cutting Corp taxes. Border crackdowns. Genocide. Those are things that should exclusively be the pervue of Republicans. If dems run to the right they will always lose because the right was so triggered by Obama that policy doesn't matter to them whatsoever. It's purely teamsport for them. You can't appeal to them in any way. They see a (D) and vote against that person. Dems would never lose another election if they went only as far left as Bernie Sanders. We would have a perpetually booming economy and a high standard of living. But even that is far too far for the DNC Services Corp. So we get a gameshow host and a car salesman destroying everything.
Republicans are always evil
"Conservatives", not Republicans. Around 100 years ago the style of both parties in the US was almost exactly reversed.
Seems to be a lot of talk here about authoritarianism.
Is demanding responsible speech over free speech absolutism "tankie"? ....because the US is demonstrating exactly what happens when you give free speech to fascists and don't monitor their "religion".
Never forget you're speaking to brainwashed ppl that thinks China and Russia are evil and they are good.
I had the most histeric discussion with people asking to to cite one leftist policy in Russia like this the fckin Mordor and they do not provide healthcare for their citizen but instead send them to the mine or whatever
why do you defend Russia? it isn't leftist. with China, we could argue about Dengism and whether CCP is actually still Communist, but United Russia is explicitly right-wing. oligarchs and mafias control the country. their foreign policy is imperialist. Dugin called for the annexation of many countries, not just Ukraine. Prigozhin had a Nazi tattoo iirc. the Eastern Orthodox Church is the de facto state religion. Putin is explicitly socially conservative. he lets Chechnia operate a literal concentration camp for LGBT people. ethnic minorities were the first into his meat grinder as the war commenced.
you really think Marx would think Putin is based?
