More Socialism, DSA, DFL BOT

 "Dear socialist friend, if the free market is so broken and collective ownership so obviously superior, your communal paradise is literally one Craigslist post away. Pool your money, elect your planning committee, and divide the labor equally. Nobody stops you. No government permission required. 100 years of free market thinkers have been pointing this out, and somehow the commune never materializes. Funny how that works. You want collective ownership of the steel mills, mines, and factories, but you won't collectively own a duplex in Cleveland with your equally passionate X mutuals. Voluntary cooperation is apparently the dealbreaker. Just... do it."

 

The insistence that socialism can only be imposed by the state is crazy. If socialism is so superior, then why are there not flourishing socialist communities springing up across the country? I could speculate, but it seems pretty obvious.

Haley Stevens has endorsed Abdul El-Sayed after warning voters that he lacked the judgment and values to represent Michigan in the Senate, accusing him of scapegoating Jewish Americans, and condemning his use of a campaign surrogate who said Jews were "inbred," Mao Zedong was praiseworthy, and "America deserved 9/11." In doing so, she has diminished her own credibility and validated the activist Left's longstanding critique that establishment Democrats ultimately stand for little beyond holding office."

Anna,

While no one on the right would so much as hint of perfection of right-wing/leaning candidates or politicians (no...there is no "MAGA cult"), and as the GOP has made sure they can ever be mistaken for perfection, there is a universe of difference in character between the parties, with the center-left drifting ever further from the very existence of the word being in their lexicon, never mind them ever manifesting it.
