Most people are trying to bring in social programs, not communism. The Democrats can do social programs, and they can do them better when we move the Overton window left by continually voting in Democrats

Lol 'both sides same' BS again. How many years have you missed? About 23.

[-] TokenBoomer@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

I’m not sure what you mean.

[-] someguy3@lemmy.world 15 points 11 months ago

You missed the last 23 years. Gore in office would have been dramatically different than Bush. Obama gave healthcare, no way the Republicans would have done that. Trump literally tried a coup. But you want to say 'both sides same' lol. You missed the last 23 years.

Okay, got it. In regards to capitalism, “both sides” are the same. I missed way more than 23 years before I found Marxism, lol.

You think trying to overturn Chevon precedent is both sides the same? Overturning EPA decision making ability? Basic rules and regulations? You know all these things that hand in hand with companies and free market? Taxes both personal and corporate. No they are not the same lol. Not to mention that you are trying to artificially limit this to capitalism as if elections are limited to that, which you are still wrong about. Sorry to say at this point you are wilfully ignorant and bad faith, I'm not going to waste any more breath.

[-] TokenBoomer@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago

Sorry I upset you. That was not my intention. Don’t let anyone on the internet anger you, it’s not worth your energy.

I'm simply pointing out your willful ignorance and bad faith. Funny that you have to put that to upset (more bad faith lol, see what I was talking about?). But I'm going against my own advice, enjoy the next attempt to squiggle out.

hey do you have a Mastodon or anything? a peertube channel? time for new friends?

[-] TokenBoomer@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

No other social media, just Lemmy. How ‘bout a comrade instead?

The Democrats can do social programs,

But won't.

[-] someguy3@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Obamacare. Try voting and moving the Overton window and they can do more.

[-] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

I do vote. The window keeps moving to the right. To the point where a handout to the insurance industry is considered a social program.

[-] someguy3@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Just think about how much worse it could be.

[-] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Oh, I'll just have to wait. The overton window isn't going to move to the left. It's already so far to the right that the "left" party supports genocide.

[-] someguy3@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Do you honestly think it hasn't moved right because Trump won? Now think what will happen if he wins again.

Ps you're what the meme is about. Except the meme is wrong, didn't save anything because Trump would escalate it.

[-] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

And there it is, like clockwork.

The assumption that anyone who doesn't love genocide must be a Trump supporter.

[-] someguy3@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

And there it is, the strawman.

Cheers.
