I'm getting reports further down, I have no idea if what anyone says is true or not. It's borderline rule 5, but not quite there. This is a strong reminder to hate the argument, not the arguer.

i wish communism was as cool as republicans make it sound
It's even cooler
I'll believe it when I see it. Not to say that I'm not willing to give it a shot, fuck knows what we're doing now isn't fucking working.
We have never found a perfect political/economic system. That’s why it’s so important that we continue to evolve what we have to be better. I feel like this has stalled out in this country and we are seeing the fallout live.

I don’t care what you call it, I want that. Call it doodoo pickle butting, if it offers that, sign me up for everyone else too.
Thats the thing, im past the stupid naming and everything. I just want policies that help people and not billionaires. Call it marxism, stalinism, whatever the fuck you want.
It's a pathetic attempt to rile the old people who remember the cold war propaganda against communism and socialism. While young people are like "So what?"
I have a 20-something son who basically grew up with MAGA shitting on everything. From his perspective ( and his friends), they don't see anything wrong with trying out Socialism/ Marxism/ Communism. They feel like the current system of "Democratic Capitalism" has led to the rise of vicious MAGA Nazis, and weak Democratic defenders of our Nation, with the majority of Americans suffering to some degree, so why are we fighting so hard to preserve it?
When we emerge from the other side of this, don't expect America to go back to anything resembling what it was before.

I find it fascinating how nowadays, basic human decency is called "woke" and "communism".
It’s the primary symptom of being infected with the broke mind virus, which effectively all republicans suffer.
Should bring actual communism back toexplain the difference.
I think this is why we'll never have a UBI/leisure society/Star Trek style utopia. We are miserable biological apes and revel in other's misery.
Fuck that; this aggressively horrible crab bucketing is cultivated. Pretending decades of capitalist propaganda every god damn second of your waking life while you live in a fantasy wirld based on nonsense abstractions is 'just a staye of nature' is insane.

There's plenty of studies showing that conservatism, sadism, and psychopathy correlate.

Wow, he wants to provide people dignity and a high quality of life. How terrifying.
Taxed and have it spent on genocide abroad.
Taxed and spent on you.
It's your choice.
Conservatives posting his Ws all the time. They're his best advertisers.
- Public Roads
- Police
- Fire Departments
- Social Security for retirees
This is also socialism (not communism, he's an idiot). I hate that socialism/communism = evil got shoved down our collective throats so goddamn hard in the middle of last century that people still fucking believe it without thought. Whatever keeps the capitalist hellscape grinding us into the dirt I guess, the old guard on both sides are still happy as hell to villainize social programs paid for by fucking tax dollars, and the tubes are too ignorant to understand that when everyone benefits that includes themselves.

+1 for nitter screenshots.
I don’t like contributing to Twitter in any way, but Nitter + screenshot undermines it enough to warm my heart. And informs others they can do the same!
protip: xcancel is also a good nitter instance you can use!
You are a special kind of stupid (and brainwashed) if you think any of those things listed are bad
And also completely unrelated to Communism.
The checkmark is an idiot self-identification tool.
cool marxism sounds awesome where's my hammer and sickle
Welfare is not equal to handing over the means of production to the working class. So what mamdani is doing is not socialist.
You're right, is Social Democracy. But that's where we are, politically these days. The largest socialist organization in then U.S. (the DSA) is ostensibly not socialist in policy. Anything slightly left of RAGING corporate handouts and bombing brown people is COMMUNISM now.

Ah, yes, famously communists love to... open grocery stores?
They actually do. They will all have the same stuff and it will have a low price.
That is basically step two after forming a council.

This so-called "fear mongering" isn't directed to the broad US population, it is targeting the preexisting bias of lowest common denominator target audience of the right.
