There are hardcore liberals around here too. That's what you get when there isn't an algorithm to promote fascists.

Market != Capitalism. You can have a free market without capitalism, and capitalism without a free market.

The hexbears will attack me for saying that a regulated free market is good and a planned economy is bad. The others will attack me for saying that capitalism is bad and that we should have market socialism instead. But if we can't have that, a capitalist free market has proven much less bad than any planned economy, as long as it's regulated enough that it stays free.

middle class is an illusion

All great social media does. The secret is that reality favors the progressive left

I thought left also meant protection against unregulated markets? Without regulations it is just going to be capitalismplusplus.

Good, we could use it more left though

"Uncorrupt government"

This is as delusional as anyone can get.

A wise man said it all once: "Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely."

I just really dislike the whole left/right tribalism. Politics is a lot more complex than left/right and just marking someone as either just increases polarisation...

Quick, genuine question because I don't know: What does the "ml" in [email protected] stand for? I thought it was for Marxist-Leninist but I'm actually not sure about that
