    I like how the meme pretends we tried Democratic socialism in the past and it’s lead us to hip democracts and Republicans.

    But the author is too pussy to say they hate Democratic socialist and that they don’t want us to try democratic socialism

    You simply can’t plug one nice person into a geopolitical machine of that scale and malice, and have it suddenly do good. This political machine is designed for harm, and there’s a lot of inertia in those gears.

    No, no, you see comrades it will work out differently if we do it with guns instead of ballots, trust me, I have your best interests at heart and will absolutely not betray you once I’m in power.

    In unrelated news, I have now declared that reading history is counter-revolutionary.

    Only direct action and solidarity can help. Is it possible to get there, I don’t know.

    Today we have two popular options, this not so real democracy where oligarchs are controlling the media and people have false hope, like in the Europe or use, or go with way worst solution like in Russia and china, authoritarian Regime, ultra truck oligarchs, ale even more explosion.

    That’s sad.
