The fact that you would choose an option that results in the bombing of children says a lot about you.

When both parties are capitalist neo-liberals, there’s no real choice at all.

I always vote third party and I’m not stopping now.

I have something called deductive reasoning. I know it’s foreign to you because it’s a lot of big words and it sounds like telepathy, but I promise it’s a real thing.

China has plenty of freedoms, but what you’re advocating for is a lawless anarchist society which often devolves into rule by the capitalist class anyways. More importantly, I think it’s really stupid to completely ignore every leftist accomplishment that China has made and the fact that they’ve gotten closer than any country in history to becoming a real socialist society. But no, they’re class traitors for some reason because they arrest people that break laws. How evil it is to have law enforcement.

Owning stock in a company does not give you control over the means of production. Sorry bud. Also, I don’t remember Marx ever claiming that every innovation of capitalism must be discarded to achieve socialism. Has no one actually read Capital?

No, because Jack Ma is a rich scumbag and shouldn’t have power over the government. The biggest difference between China and the US is that billionaire oligarchs don’t run their entire country. And I know you don’t know anything about how Chinese people live because you wouldn’t have the opinion you have if you did.

One does not simply “do” communism. You have to transition into it. Also, I shouldn’t have to tell a leftist that capitalism isn’t “when you have markets.” Read a book. Specifically Capital.

I just wish you weirdos would come up with something smarter than tankie. You right wingers are terrible at roasting leftists. Just be more creative. Tanks are awesome and tankie just sounds like someone that likes tanks. Tanks a lot.

You have no idea what life in China is like. All of your information is strictly based on US propaganda

Tankie Triad? I can’t even imagine the brain rot you devour on a daily basis.

Sounds like another great reason for Amazon workers to organize a labor union.

Weird because there’s literally no source that states he was celebrating Stalin’s death. He wrote the piece about Stalin when he died, but it certainly isn’t celebratory in tone or spirit. Shostakovich also never said he was celebrating Stalin’s death. I’m assuming that’s just how you interpret the piece.

If you don’t like it, go back to Reddit.

Somebody bring Fred Hampton back from the dead.

Weird, I could’ve sworn it was the embargos that caused that.

It’s almost like all the engineers and scientists were killed by Japan during WW2.

Capitalists tell you to work and starve

Most people that vote third party wouldn’t vote otherwise. Assuming that every vote for Jill Stein would’ve gone to Hillary is quite the assumption. I always vote third party, so assuming my current vote for Jill Stein would’ve gone towards Harris instead is just dumb and wrong.

I mean, yeah. The only way to reform the system is from within the system. Here in lies the ultimate issue with the left: all I ever hear is criticisms and no solutions. We have two options, reform or revolution. Revolution is nearly impossible. So if it’s reform, people need to be elected into the system to make the changes. There is no reform without elections. Even if we were to organize something big like a general strike, it would only make the bourgeoisie afraid. Real changes are legislative and that means elections. Unless you’ve got a better idea, in which case, please share with the class.
