and the revolution comes, youll be safe
if the revolution comes youre still safe
if you align against the regressive left
and the revolution comes
youll be up against the wall
if the revolution doesnt come youre still at risk of losing work etc
The right has the military. Left doesn't stand a chance.
America inst about to nationalize anything aussie
the right doent have the military
im talking about regressives getting into government
DSA people
in 10-15 years regressive could have the military
You mean by controlling the government or by having a majority in it?
Even if someone is in government they don't really control the military unless the military holds the same ideals. For the most part the military is nationalistic, protects the constitution, and are right wing. Leftists hate the military so chances are they don't join.
@Blackhawk342 Think about it the first amendment stops the goverment censoring people so if twitter was run by the goverment then they couldn't legally censor you.
they would need the majority of people to not see through it all... without the people they got nothing
unless they use extreme force straight away
If the military sees that people in government are going against the constitution past the point of no return I believe they would intervene.
And even if they don't right wingers still own most of the guns.
I had an interesting conversation with my aunt yesterday.. shes from the UK but decided to live in teh USSR in 1989 for about 2 years...
@Deleted User Regardless, the american government wont nationalize anything, it would set a dangerous precedent
she said most of the shops were basically empty shelves, so she would stock up for winter on things like rice etc...
CreativeRealms I believe they would probably do what the Commander in Chief tells them to. 😃
@Blackhawk342 Having goverment run media isn't a bad thing it just depends on who is in the goverment.
but although she knew in the back of her mind it was sort of a worry that she might starve to death or might not be able to escape and get back to england... mainly in her day to day it would be trivial things that she would worry about
Exactly, id rather put my faith in individuals than the government
The mass media isn't a individual it's a organization.
Wacka im sure youve heard the story about Yestlin's visit to the US
It's made up of individuals but it's still a organization.
How he wanted to visit a supermarket but insisted on picking one at random because he thought the US would intentionally stock it to give the apperance of prosperity
I think she said it was gorbachov in charge when she was there... could be wrong on that
but it was just interesting that she was more worried about trivial things like... watering plants and things than the likely possibility of starving to death
The Soviet Union only did well when they started to libarlize the economy from a planned economy to a mixed economy.
yeah she came back towards the end of the USSR so she sort of got to see a little change.. I guess it was probably even worse before she went
Yes you are right, gorb was in charge but yelstin was still in government
capitalism isn't the answer to everything
but its' the best thing we have
where a human's natural selfishness can benefit others
because not everyone can do it alone
so capitalism is the purist form of tit-for-tat
