I’d like the empire to fall. That’d be mighty fine.

The entire west is parasitic. Full of colonizing profiteers.

They could stop being yet another oppressive western nation and discontinue bending over for Trump/the US. This isn’t new behavior, Canada’s a removed.

Cut off the oil supply. The US is a wasteful shithole that blows through 20 million barrels/day, but only produces 13. The majority of the rest comes from Canada.

This seem like a fair trade. Just for funsies throw in Newsom.

My heroes 🫡

Ahhhhhhhhhhahaha. Death to amerikkka.

Yeah, no, they sound super environmentally friendly, as outlined here.

How about Equinor? Maersk? H&M? Another for H&M? H&M paying 89% of their workers below the poverty line, that sounds nice!

Capitalism is a shit stain on the world, and the Scandinavian countries have been a part of neocolonialism just as much as the rest of the west.

Your big argument is it’s child-like to think outside of capitalism, because it’s all you know. Just because you can’t be bothered to read theory, doesn’t mean there aren’t other options.

If the general public wasn’t being deceived non-stop, bozos, like yourself, wouldn’t be standing by saying “that’s just the world we live in.”

My argument is we’re not afforded the opportunity to make decent choices, or have a voice at all, really. Stop pushing for moderates.

Nonsense? It’s common knowledge that capitalism cannot exist without exploitation, but you seem to think that your NATO member countries aren’t part of that demographic.

You’re certainly doing a fine job contributing to climate change as well. Another form of shitting on everyone else.

The elite manipulate elections and push for laws with their capital. The societies we live in are hardly democratic. Faux democracy is more like it.

Spoken like a truly indoctrinated westerner. Everything about your life has been defined by capitalism, including the “law” you mention. Our capitalist societies have enabled the elites to create those laws which do not apply to them.

The lesser developed countries that have had the western boots on their throats would also like a word.

France, Great Britain, and the US, along with it’s NATO allies have been fist fucking the world for a very long. It’s ignorant to call it a free market. It’s looting the global south.

Better than some countries, but still participating in capitalism, which cannot exist without exploitation.

You’re a member of NATO, yeah?

The political compass normalizes most right wingers as being moderate. Liberalism has created this situation. You cannot legislate your way to ethical capitalism.

Death to Amerikkka!

Sen. Angus King, the independent from Maine, said it’s “very disturbing” that Trump took the U.S. to war because Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wanted to bomb Iran. Past U.S. presidents, he said, “have consistently said, ‘No.’”

"Busy droning children, maybe later.”

Obama, probably

It gets better. Supporting NATO because you’re against imperialism. You truly are the progressivest.

The NATO supporting anti-capitalist. Meh. You’re a lost cause. I’m quite alright. I have better things to do than speak with a future fascist.

Do you mean Social Democracy countries? Because Democratic Socialism is a political party or persuasion, not a political system in its own right. What country is exclusively Democratic Socialist?

A political party or persuasion? Which is it? It seems you don’t exactly have a clear idea on what it is. It is absolutely an ideology. Though it would like socialism, it prioritizes compromising with capitalism, much like social democracy. Is it really even worth trying to distinguish between the two?

But keep blaming the Nordic model for the crimes of the US, I’m sure that strategy will convince somebody, just not me.

The majority of Nordic countries are part of NATO. It’s a nasty terrorist organization.

Oh and by the way, do you want to mention the millions of deaths under Lenin, Stalin, Mao, and Pol Pot? Since apparently you’re juxtaposing “true” leftism against all the inferior or “untrue” leftisms as some sort of harbinger of moral superiority and respect for human lives?

You pretend to be progressive, but fail to see true progressivism. I’m guessing you’re talking deaths due to famine, which were the majority of the deaths under those leaders, but conditions improved due to those leaders, and the people of course. Socialism is all about the collective. The role of the dictator of the proletariat is to keep the capitalists from returning to power, not oppress the people. You claim to not be a liberal, but you’re sure coming off as one, rude like one as well. Millions die due to capitalism every year. I’m not sure why you’re not bringing that up as well. Also, do note that you’re now defending capitalism. Not a real progressive thing to do.

You’re quite rude. It would do liberals a lot of good to read some theory. They’d understand what the “tankies” are talking about rather than dismissing them as lunatics.

The best of the Democratic Socialist countries are still ran by child murdering shitbags. They’re probably gearing up to bomb schools alongside the US.

Democratic Socialism has no ethical end game. It’s a compromise with the ruling class remaining the ruling class. It’s a slightly lesser evil, but still evil. It’s just another liberal hangout.

Socialists do not support any form of capitalism…
