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.

Weird way to spell "fantasy"

This "nuclear strategy" is currently being made under Biden, are you fucking stupid? Reps are functionally identical to dems, specially in their foreign policy.

As to accusations of genocidal tendencies, neither nation has a clean record.

The US murdered 30% of the DPRK's population in the Korean war, destroyed all its infrastructure, still has sanctions on it hurting its working class population, and is currently committing a genocide right now. Just how delusional are you libs?

Probably that the US is reacting at all. With the knowledge of which country is the only one insane enough to use nuclear weapons on real human beings, and China having a no-first-use policy, it makes sense to be concerned when the country currently funding a genocide is making a nuclear strategy.

As yogthos puts it, "Everybody should be concerned about a rabid chimp with a hand grenade."

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

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.

a single party dictates larger economic trends

You're describing socialism.

Well, so long as that party directs it in the interests of the people rather than capitalists, as is the case for China.
