increasing income inequality
an increase in interest in socialism
trump being president might accelerate things perhaps
not in rural areas
roughyl 72% of the country
i mean yes in rural areas when all those people lose their welfare
besides the party doesnt even have to be a majority to seize power anyway.
you underestimate the amount of distrust with socialism in the states
And way more people live in urban than rural areas
the rural areas are losing their population to urban centers
over time
urban centers of course being more open to socialism
70% of the country lives in urban areas friend.
here is an extrapolation for you.
that's worldwide, btw
Yes, urban areas are becoming more populated than rural areas, and perhaps these regions will be more open to socialism in the future, but they can also look the other way
so it's a trend all over
to the far right, and they already are
the urban areas are the ones that overwhelmingly voted for clinton and overwhelmingly opposing trump
Americans have already been swallowing nativist propaganda
People like you would have thought a revolution in Russia impossible. You put too much stake in the status quo and too little in powers of change.
the only reason trump won is because of the electoral college handing empty states with like 1 trump voter handing him the victory
a revolution in Russia was possible because everyone hated the form of government
@Sorghagtani Beki Urban americans aren't.
well
obviously not everyone
but you get the idea
Not true, most of them were illiterate peasants (literally) and really didn't know much about Tsarism or Socialism.
but they still had shit lives
Which is why the proletariat's party had to seize power for both
and therefore were open to revolution
especially against their evil lords and the tsar
who permits these lords
The peasantry was revolutionary but not consistently like the proletariat
hell, the bolshevik party was actually a very small minority in the beginning
If a shit life is all it takes for a successful revolution, the US is destined to fall.
that level of hatred simply does not exist in the US right now
when it was still the russian social democratic labor party
