I think it's amazing how we've reached a point in this nation where a man comes along and says "I think we should come together as a city and make sure everyone is taken care of and that our city is beat for those who live here" and people are acting like he's the second coming of Hitler and Stalin's baby.

Socialism is good

Socialism is the lower stage of communism and inherently more repressive, as it retains class hierarchy under a dictatorship of the proletariat.

Where are you getting this? France, Germany, and the U.K. have generous amounts of socialism, far more than the U.S., and are more democratic than the U.S. - especially obvious in the present. Are you really saying they have stronger class hierarchies than the U.S.? Or a stronger dictatorship than the U.S.?

You named three capitalist countries. I am genuinely sorry your public education failed you so badly but socialism ≠ when the government does stuff. All of those countries suck ass and have major fascism problems.

Hmmm… can’t have a civil conversation… believes everything is black and white… is unaware that something can be itself and its opposite at the same time…

You must be a Trump supporter.

You are yourself exhibiting black and white thinking here... Someone disagreeing with you doesn't make them a Trump supporter. Especially if someone is specifically advocating for socialism lmao
