Can we stop trying to make electoralism work already? A capitalist system will never let real leftists come to power even if they win; they wouldn't allow people to vote if it did.

Organizing and applying pressure from outside it for a revolution is and has always been the only way. Liberals will align with fascists long before ever moving left, as they always have.

The Communist Manifesto

The language can be a bit tough to understand these days though so might want to read Ted Reese's Socialism Or Extinction instead

Probably has something to do with leaving a platform because it turned into a capitalist shithole?

They got exiled from reddit years ago

Huh, just like everyone else here

It's weird rather that some people are such bootlickers that they complain about people being socialists/communists after leaving a platform because of capitalism

Notice how you don't address anything they said because it's true.

The US has been the only country genocidal enough to use a nuclear bomb on actual human beings, and they did it twice at that. Having a nuclear deterrence to keep such a war-mongering country out is important. And it's been working as we can see.

there are fascists in Ukraine, like in a lot of countries

Most countries don't have a fascist government that violently suppresses the left. Israel and Ukraine are about the only ones (and maybe Modi's India to an extent?) right now.

It's not about a "right" to invade. The point is this was the only option left with a coup gov that doesn't care about prior peace agreements, kills people for resisting (like Eastern Ukrainians in DPR & LPR and Crimeans), and is being blocked by the US and UK from negotiating.

China hasn’t committed to any steps to address American concerns, arguing that its cheap solar panels and other green products are helping the world wage the costly battle against climate change.

Based. Pay no attention to the shit the US government says.

Except Saudi and Jordan

Those governments have to somewhat keep up the appearance of opposing israel/US because their populations strongly support Palestine.

Something something capitalism I'm guessing

Part of "israel" succeeding would mean obscuring the situation by continuing to kill journalists and by propaganda
