  • Just to clarify, the US Democrat party isn’t a left wing party, it’s a right wing party. It hasn’t been left wing since Jimmy Carter. We have two right wing parties in the US which often comes as a shock to people who aren’t paying attention.

    Also, all of the economic problems you’re experiencing are because of capitalism, not communism.

    There’s only five countries in the world that are externally labeled as “communist,” and four of them are in Asia. All five don’t classify themselves as communist.

    The term is just a fear-triggering word to trick gullible people into blaming the problems of capitalism on an imaginary boogeyman.







  • The democrat answer is always to blame & shame the voters, leftists & progressives for their losses.

    But what democrats won’t ever do is represent the interests of the people, they can’t. Democrats take bribes from rich donors who have interests that conflict with the voters.

    Voters want universal healthcare, rich donors do not. Voters want free college, rich donors do not. Voters want the genocide in Gaza to end, rich donors do not. There’s many more examples, but democrats have to walk a tight rope.

    If the democrats cater to the voters, they lose the rich donors. If they cater to the rich donors, they lose the voters. So democrats have been pandering to their rich donors while pushing optics as if they support the voters. But it’s always a lie.

    When democrats take power, they implement miniscule change that expires or is easily reversed to appease the voters while still doing the bidding of the donors. But as the voter’s need for change grows, the less that democrats want to win.

    Winning means being in charge, which means pressure to implement change. Rich donors don’t want that change, so democrats deliberately lose.

    Democrats would rather be a minority party that soaks up donations rather than be the majority party and have to actually govern and fix things.

    Democrats are NOT leftists, they’re center right at best. They ultimately serve corporate interests and NOT the will of the people.

    You will never get universal healthcare, police reform, free college, less military spending, and other leftist ideals from the Democrat party because they’re not leftists. Doing these things runs counter to the interests of their corporate masters.

    We have a fascist party and a conservative party, but we don’t actually have a liberal party. We haven’t had one since before Clinton.
