I don’t think that’s accurate
I mean look at Warren and Sanders
You don’t think they are a positive step?
Or are you just an anti-incrementalism so you think we should burn it all down
@fuck12moredeadcops sernd ss
I think it’s a positive step, and ideally one of them becomes the Democratic Candidate, but they’re not suggesting fundamental changes, just compromises, and when the UN scientist are telling us even if we were to meet our current emissions reduction goals (which we aren’t), we’re going to have catastrophic changes to our food production output, an answer outside of compromise is necessary
Yes, I agree with most of that, what kind of fundamental changes do you think are necessary?
It’s not burning it down. If the boat is sinking it’s not crazy to suggest we get on a different one.
An end to production for the sake of profit, a nationalization of all industry (where it is possible), a cessation of non-socially necessary production
If we don’t stop making fidget spinners, and stop overproducing we are existentially threatened, and Warren and Sanders don’t suggest solutions which will fix things like that. I think they’re steps in the right direction and they could shift the Overton Window further Left the same way Trump has shifted it Right, but they’re the most extreme Left wing of the Democratic Party
As an institution, the Democratic Party doesn’t have the necessary anti-capitalist posture
Eh, I don’t think there’s evidence to support those claims
Nationalize the industry? Is globalization that bad?
Huh, guess we should stop importing goods from other countries because they're making profit; guess we should also slow down the economy because thats also how we make profit
Should take a look at the Netherlands, they're doing some interesting innovation with agriculture; but ofc, *don't buy produce from the Netherlands because it'll make profit for them*
@3v6en8 No it means like
State ownership of the industry
Not an end to global trade
So like China?
No China has private ownership of capital by individuals who operate their businesses for profit
#Commiegang
Actually they aren't capitalist
They still are communist
They just make monkey from capitalist countries
*Globalization*
Also there barely is private ownership in China; CEOs have like around 1% shares in their companies and everything is leased 99 or so years
Not saying its bad or good; but that doesn't sound very private ownership
Politically communist, economically capitalist
china isnt communist they have an authoritarian government
they also have a huge wealth gap which is something you dont see in communism
sure you do.
?
communism is inherently authoritarian in practice
there is no other way for it to be structured
period
its not, lenin supported democratic centralism
yet he was an authoritarian
he wasnt but okay
stalin transformed the USSR to make u believe that
he despised lenin
