THANK YOU. It's that fkin simple.
Biden = old, senile liberal alright with a little bit of genocide.
Trump = Hitler
I wonder what the right choice is here... /s
But NOOOOO both sides both sides lalalaa can't hear you both sides lalalaa /s
Except Trump is fascist and Biden is a liberal not tough on fascism.
Are they sentient? The above qualities describe sentience to a certain degree. Do plants feel grief? Do they feel fear?
Did that happen here, or are you projecting that onto others?
If by "here", u mean lemmy, then yes. They were hexbear ppl.
As for supporting cooperatives, you'd be a Market Socialist, so not a Communist, but not really liberal either.
Socialism is the transitory state to communism. I believe in the communist utopia and I believe that this cooperative kind of market socialism will lead us there.
As for the question of Reform or Revolution, it's pretty clear by this point that Reform might as well be impossible.
I would disagree there. I would love to explain why, but I'm really tired right now to type much stuff out. Ik it's a cop out. I'm sorry.
As such, the majority of Socialists are Revolutionary, so you have more fringe views.
Eh... Most socialists where I'm from have such views. MLs are in fact the rarity in my experience offline.
I got called a liberal for wanting to support cooperatives. I got called a liberal for not wanting to participate in an armed socialist revolution.
I've largely seen the word "liberal" being used by tankies to dismiss the opinions of all people that they disagree with.
Eh just block the tankie instances. That problem goes away quickly!
Not the person u replied to.
Of course I like criticising actual liberals. I just don't like criticising socialists who don't like to go the tankie way whom u call liberals.
Or does the $900 they lent create a -$900 for the bank that is cancelled through repayment?
Correct (effectively). Remember how you are "loaning" money to the bank by depositing money in ur bank account? Think about it - if someone loaned you money, and you spent it somewhere, would you have 0 money or would you have negative money (in terms of cash)?
Interestingly, this is why Nordic countries technically have one of the highest wealth inequalities in the world. It's because they easily get home loans as the government acts as their guarantors. Here's a vid to explain this.
Holy shit. I get it! That's a great explanation and I really appreciate your taking the time to type it all out. I'm glad we don't have Lemmy medallions to award but, if we did, I'd give you one.
Awwww thankssss
Correct. Although I'm saying that Biden is less awful than his alternative.
