Americans are backing progressives not because they want socialism, but because they want candidates who will fight for the working class
Dropout has a point.
We really really need some progressives in gov. Like, a lot of em. Especially as the POTUS. Someone who is completely the opposite of the orange taint. The People should be the ones in charge, not the public servants.
Wall Street democrats:
Hey we are the good guys, we want the same things Republicans want, but without the fascism. 🤢
Americans are backing progressives not because they want socialism, but because they want candidates who will fight for the working class
That’s the literal goal of socialism though…
They’re voting for progressive Democrats not because they want socialism, support the Democratic Socialists of America, or reject candidates called “moderate”.
They’re voting for candidates whom they believe will fight to make housing, food, healthcare and childcare affordable to average working families. And who’ll take on Trump’s billionaire backers, CEOs and Wall Street titans who are rigging the economy against them.
So they are voting for socialists not because they want socialism, but because the alternatives are refusing to reign in, or are overtly in favor of, unfettered capitalism…
Well the S word is bad so they want all the S stuff but without the word.
because they want socialism
I’m guessing you mean democratic socialism or social democracy and not the Marxist kind.
Social democracy has created some of the best societies in the world, while the Marxist kind has created some of the worst.not because they want socialism, but because they want candidates who will fight for the working class
That’s the literal goal of socialism though…
they are not fighting for the dirty word but for the more acceptable wording of the same thing
If were going with the goals of socialism, the goal is to have social ownership of companies directly by the workers or through the state which is something that by and large Americans don’t support but yes, some Americans are voting for progressives and democratic socialists because they’re promising to enact regulations to help the median wage earning American.
And a reminder that this is what MAGA, in all its forms, also ran and promised and won because median Americans kept being disappointed with Democrats not doing a damn thing to help them when they got into power.
I mean I’m hopeful that the Democratic party will get its head out of its ass and and continue to vote in progressives and DSA members but overall in median America, I still have my doubts it’ll be a quick change since it’s been over a decade since Tea Party/MAGA have continued to hold power with median Americans, George Carlin voters continuing to vote these charlatans in power.
