Ok, misread that one.

Buddy, if you really believe there are active socialist politicians within the US system, I don’t know what to tell you.

Also, it’s kind of wild to call China “as capitalist as the US and EU”. Russia sure, its current system is very predatory capitalist in its makeup, even if they have particularly Russian characteristics to it. I mean, it’s hard to imagine Biden have Musk or Bezos dressed down on live television while stripping them of their assets, the way Putin did with a number of oligarchs early in his rule. But it’s very capitalist all the same. But China as capitalist as the US? That’s just nonsense. State capitalist I could understand, but capitalist like the US is just plain nonsense.

This whole thread is just a demonstration of “enlightened centrism”. Someone above is even arguing that hating landlords makes you a fascist! Just chef’s kiss.

“Sure they don’t like landlords but that’s because they’re fascists.”

What the actual fuck? Not liking landlords means somehow that you’re fascist now? How very very stupid.

You can’t understand why or how communists and socialists would be anti-US and anti-EU? Really? Seems fairly self evident to me that that’d be the case. Why would you expect anything but hostility towards the ultra capitalist systems in the US or EU from communists and socialists? Seems like an odd complaint, anti-capitalist sentiment is part of the core of the ideology as I see it.
