But not as billionaires

It’s centrist in the sense that the mainstream old guard Ds and Rs are both corporate bootlickers - so he’s solidly in that venn overlap

From what I can tell, she’s doing great so far - but it’s still pretty early

That’s the seat Kat Abughazaleh (sp?) is running for. And she Definitely doesn’t take aipac money. In this environment, I think Dems are going to pay more attention to primaries this time around

I was going to send a DM to cowbee, but it may be worth knowng for others. I’m a bit older and may be a “normie” leftist with moderate anti-cap views and have unexamined prejudices about the USSR. I liked what I read from Lenin/Marx (one work each, i know!) but don’t like the reality of what I know of Stalin so don’t want that association. After reading some more, I’ll reexamine the USSR prejudices. So thanks to cowbee and folks who didn’t assume malice

Civil and Fair, so thanks. I’ll also pay more attention to the instance in the future if only to not be so baffled. Even if folks consider the Soviets progressive for the time, my 2 cents is that tying modern anticapitalism to the realities of USSR, especially Stalinism, does a disservice to progressive movements and even Marxism. But as you say, it’s a minority opinion, so I’ll accept my downvotes. Thanks again

Fascism is probably heading more towards neo-Feudalism than sticking with traditional capitalism

Because the Soviets were assholes. I didn’t realize that would be controversial. I wish folks wouldn’t restrict the concept of anti-capitalism to the ussr. Raised fist? Red and black?

Lowkey yikes. I don’t want to associate myself with either graphic

Dude sucks for sure, but real talk: I think when the seas rise and the food gets scarce and there’s no way we can avoid doing something, the powers that be will resort to some kind of geo-engineering BS. It’ll be a coin flip if that kills all of us

I made the mistake of playing too much in early access and it was a lot of fun but I am worried it ruined the experience. Looking forward to trying a fresh playthrough!

Rehabilitation!

Absolutely. It makes me crazy that people can’t imagine what the consequences of American isolation will be. We built this position and lifestyle over generations, and every single other administration including his was smart enough not to fuck with it

RIP… The wayners were such an integral part of the dd experience. Ruin has come to our family

Impressive dedication to avoiding standard fun!

But she does work? In truth there are two classes: working class and owner class. Doctors, actors, pipe fitters, bus drivers, etc are workers. They are paid for what they do (and who they are). Landlords, investors, etc are owners. They get paid for what they have. Maybe she doesn’t have to work and is out of touch, but I have more in common with her than I do with Peter Thiel
