I think in a realistic way. I support bernie & aoc and donate monthly to fund progressive candidates, but they arent far enough left for you guys. Progressives are making real change and influencing policy decisions while communists require a revolution for their goals. The chance of something like that being successful AND those who have power at the end being altruistic is miniscule. So no, i dont support uprooting the lives of everyone to achieve an impossible goal. We can achieve UBI, universal healthcare, campaign finance reform, walkable cities, etc in a capitalist society. That has been tested and proven.
Your problem is that you call anyone who isnt a full on communist a 'liberal'. Youre far too idealistic.
Regardless, i cant even post here without getting purged.
your 'realistic' politicians are leading us into world war 3, climate collapse and widespread reaction. Yes, even your precious squad signs the checks for Ukrainian fascists and Zionazis. The only 'realistic' option is a radical change. The 'centrists' are all insane neocon warmongers who want to nuke Iran, they are the most deluded and captured by capital. The 'left' are the reasonable and realistic neocon warmongers who want to get involved in a land war in Eurasia. Neither want to seriously address climate change by co-operating with China on mass renewable infrastructure initiatives and sea-walls and other supportive infrastructure for places most hard hit by climate change, instead both want war or cold war. Biden enacting tariffs on renewables. What a joke, we're all going to boil because of slow moving chauvinist "realistic" frogs like you.
"Purged" lmao, absolute loser shit. Adding another one to the Black Book just for you
