They’re using the definition of “liberal” as neoliberal or classic liberal, as in basically, capitalists. It gets confusing since in the US the term means center-left people with a focus on improving lives for racial and gender minorities and women. But also these “omg I’m a communist bro so leftist” people like do the “both sides are the same” crap and claim that democrats and republicans are equivalent because they’re both “liberals”, as in capitalists, as if we’ll have a choice about that anytime soon in the us. Also they completely ignore that the democrats are more likely to enact socialist policies while republicans bitterly oppose them.

The dude has been told that countless times and obviously doesn’t remotely give a fuck. Makes you wonder why he’s going so hard for months on a strategy that could only result in helping Trump, huh? Sure af wouldn’t help Palestinians or “reform the democrats” as is claimed.

These “omg I’m so leftist” morons have been saying that for months. Odd how they spend so much time in activities that make Trump more likely to win and ignore all logic relating to that fact.

wow! who could it be??

You don’t seem to have read or followed any of the logic here. Why’s that?

Someone who would otherwise vote for Harris voting 3rd party would help Trump win. Pretty simple. Not sure what’s so hard to understand about that. And Trump would be just as bad on Gaza, worst likely, and worse on every other issue facing the country as well. Not sure how many times we have to say it.

Are you going to reward Trump for his decade of insane douchebaggery and criminal behavior? Why would we do that?

It’s weird how we can try to explain this to people for months straight and they’re still posting stupid memes about it.

You're definitely great at being stubborn about your complete lack of awareness of reality. It's worth noting that you're incorrect, as well as that you're fighting a strawman: there is not even the most remote chance that the US is implementing any form of communism.

I'd suggest perhaps becoming more informed about the realities of poor nutrition caused by lack of access to food in the US. One issue is that due to how capitalism works, people of lower economic status often lack access to nutritious food. It's more profitable to distribute cheap addictive crap, and it's not profitable to try to sell higher quality food in poor areas. Apparently according to the horrific political beliefs held by people such as yourself, poor people don't deserve to have access to higher quality, more nutritious food.

"The dual burden of malnutrition in the United States and the role of non-profit organizations☆" https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6214863/

" Facts About Child Hunger in America" : https://www.nokidhungry.org/who-we-are/hunger-facts

Meanwhile you have Republicans acting enraged about the idea of feeding poor children free nutritionally balanced lunch at school, which is sometimes the only reasonable meal they can get in the entire day. It's puzzling how people who claim to have the moral high ground on so many issues take completely indefensible, nakedly evil positions on that supposedly due to some strongly held economic belief. It's enough to make me hope that Christianity is true so folks like that can be tortured by satan for an infinite amount of time (that's what Christians believe happens to evil people, right?)

That's a nice try at a joke, but in real life, it sure has been tried and it's brutal. I think I already suggested looking into industrial revolution era Great Britain? The insane shit that happened there is the reason we have regulatrions on capitalism. Of course, we still get kids, politicians, morons and ornery old people who aren't very well informed about history and don't comprehend why we don't do "real capitalism".

oh, a capitalist economy? yep, they all feature people on the lower economic rung starving. check out the industrial revolution in the UK for a great example.

Authoritarian dictators. Communism. It is all the same thing.

Ha ha, no. If that's the angle you're coming from that explains a lot.

 
 

uh... this video is very 80s, perhaps the most ever, and it's a spectacle of utter horror.

Definitely not a typical music video.
