I mean i just double checked

Socialism means the community owns the means of production

How would a culture own a state

That sounds interesting I’ll read up

Im old now

Im@just uneducated on political philosophies and sure

Well I read the definition of it and I wholeheartedly disagree with it

The only reason I care about open borders is because the children of illegals will grow up and vote in economically socialist policies

Based on that wiki article and the excerpt you provided, it is economic socialism, as I suspected

Then i wouldnt care as much

It said it advocated for wealth redistributions, a large safety net, and an economic obligation to take care of one another

That isnt socialism in and of itself true

I see

True

I just want America to remain very capitalist

Capitalistic?

Capitalist?

Whatever

That’s my number one priority for the country

Free marker economics and capitalism

Okau

I know that there’s a lot of “socialism for the rich”

Which is t really socialism but that’s the buzz word rhey use

But what I mean is that America needs to remain a free market economy

Btw im not a hardcore conservative or anything

I just fear that America will become a genuinely socialist state in the future

No

Oh

Wait I should clarify

I wasn’t ripping right wing socialism just now

Oh no

The other guy laughed when I said that america should remain a capitalistic nation

I assumed he did so because there are a lot of accusations in politics that modern day America is “socialism for the rich, capitalism for the por”

That’s why I said I acknoweldge the existence of socialism for the rich

Which is a misnomer

But it’s the buzzword they use

@run 110 minutes lose 110 pounds no

As long as America remains very capitalistic I think we’ll be fine

I fear the cultural left because I believe it will lead to economic leftism

I fear open borders because we already have 11 million illegals here with god knows how many kids, abd that’s not including the amount they gave amnesty to

And those people are likely to vote blue blindly

Because the left appeals more to minorities

Today it’s a socdem (Bernie sanders) who likes to pretend he’s a socialist

Tomorrow it may be an actual socialist

It’s no coincidence that Bernie was more competitive with Latinos than Biden

Biden won blacks and whites

That’s beyond the point I was making

I was saying that many minorities will blindly vote for the guy farthest on the left

It isnt

Not anymore lmao

The black vote is far weaker

Most blacks live in the south which tend to have extremely conservative whites

They are usually outweighed by large margins

Meanwhile latinos tend to live in places like Arizona, Texas, and CA

And they vote blue at rates which can flip swing states like Texas and Arizona

Texas and Arizona are swing states for a reason

Latinos

The Latino vote is far stronger than the black vote

It isnt

How is its value exaggerated

At these rates, Texas will be a swing state soon, and AZ already is

Theyre the most targeted by ICE

They are just as blinded with racism

Okay not just as blinded

But still pretty blinded

True

But Latinos still vote blue where it matters

It’s not exclusive to that anymore

It’s about hispanic oppression too now

Especially in the age of trump

And it will

The senate race in 2028 was a 3 point difference

Less than that actually

Texas is purple

Arizona is very purple

Arguably trending blue

Florida is only trending red because boomers go there in such high numbers that the latinos are outweighed

Hopefully

I hope youre right

But whites are shrinking as a percentage of the electorate

So the south will outweigh them lol

The country will shift left

The more time you give it, the lower the white population will be and the more the blue states will matter

It’s not spotty at all really

It’s simple demographics

The populations of southern states are increasing much faster and mostly being filled with hardcore dem minorities

Yeah but even if the whites go that way it wont matter

Whites are like 60% now

It will drop below 50 soon

It’s not enough to outweigh the raw demographic shift in the south

The country will shift towards the left

To appeal to minorities it will become economically more left wing

The right may retain power

Republicans will win elections

But republicans will be where the dems are now

Dude the entire point is to prevent that from happening

How can you ensure capitalism will be preserved

It wont just stop at some arbitrary point

Im not

You admit that the country will shift left
