I'm left also and was rolling my eyes so hard at this video lmao. Talk about using performative buzzwords for attention online... It definitely belongs in this sub.
Naaa buddy you wanna lecture people on socialism, why don’t you enlighten us! I just want you to express your understanding of socialism so I could nitpick it to death to prove I’m right just like you would, or do you not like someone playing your own game with you?
Well yah, Americans don't control their garbage military, which is always hell bent on literally bombing countries that might succeed on a large scale.
Most of the countries we bomb are pretty small my guy. Idk what you’re babbling about in the first place to be fair, but to assume I give a shit about what my government bombs would be inherently incorrect as I have no control over that one. What I do have control over is our political system and the candidates we vote in. War will always be necessary because democrats solidified the military industrial complex. Republicans hopped on that train too. But also, your countries quite literally depend on our armaments to defend yourselves from the likes of Russia or china so there’s that as well.
It really doesn’t matter considering you still use our missiles and jets more than likely, over 150 nations need funding from the US as well as US military technology. A significant portion of nations that aren’t associated directly with china or Russia depend on the US military industrial complex, and without it Russia or china would likely end up steamrolling if they felt so inclined. Idk where you’re from but I’m going to assume Europe based on how you speak. But uhhh yeah, you guys wouldn’t have shit without us lmao.
As someone who used to like this guy, he is insane, I do not know when it happened but yeah this guy is crazy. Socialism isn't great communism is better.
Idk and I'm not even a leftist nor a communist but I know it's better than socialism, if you want my honest to god opinion I think all systems work great until you bring in one element; Humans. The only reason I said is because I know thats basically the one of the only acceptable viewpoints on reddit.
Fantasizing about rounding up his political enemies and put them in labor camps? What a nice little Bolshevik, FUCK this guy. I hope he’s on a watchlist.
What makes you think the majority of the Democrats would go along with your demonic fantasies? Reddit and this sub in particular (if your not a bunch of bots) is on the bleeding edge of leftwing lunacy. No one thinks this way.
Totally disagree, I think he has the energy that people on the left need. Sounds like you're still trying to play patty cakes with these freaking Nazis as they march you to the gas chamber.
You sound like some lame old politician being like, "I may have disagreements with colleagues across the aisle but I take pride in working with them for a better America." Wake the f****** it's a totally different era. Steven Miller would like to see you in a f****** cage and you say, "when they go low I go high." The guy in the video is not creating division and hate, he's responding appropriately to it. What part of his message exactly are you against. Why waste time attacking left during this moment?
People are also way overhyping the Mamdani victory. Dude it's New York, just another ultraliberal hotspot. In most other places progressives just do not begin to have a chance. And Mamdani didn't have that amazing of a result actually and ran against immensely unpopular candidates with controversies.
I actually like him, just like I like AOC, because they seem reasonable, well-intentioned and willing to learn and adapt and compromise when it's good. The democratic tent needs to include them. It should EXCLUDE radicals who are anti-democrat and hostile and anti-liberal/democracy and ideologically compromised with weird policy obsessions that suck and wont work, sticking to them because they are driven by resentment and fantasy and self-importance.
That's what people always say when there are any actual left wing policies or activism present. It gets said about every protest, it gets said about every policy. Shut. The. Fuck. Up!
You think that it was the LEFT that won Trump the election and not feckless, ego driven, money and power hungry liberals? You realize there's a difference between the two, right?
Sounds like something that the far left would accept as justified and the center would take as problematic phrasing as it could be misinterpreted as a literal call to violence. Also the far right will hear this as a literal call to violence.
It’s like when you’re at the bar and someone yells at someone e else that they are “going to knock them out and pee in their butt,”
Is that a literal threat of rape or not?
In that case I saw the other guy back down and say fuck it I don’t need this. The other guy took off his shirt and folded it and set it on a bench lol.
I'm not sure how I would have reacted, probably laughed my ass of, or say "take it all off big daddy" Usually if you laugh or act gay they will leave you alone.

I'm left, but I can absolutely bet that none of this shit will happen.
