A lot of Christians will say no to believing in Aliens but because they believe God created humans and gave us the universe.

Or in a similar vain, because aliens aren't mentioned in the Bible they don't think they are real.

I appreciate that it is peertube

I'm not at all saying this is how I feel.

I was raised a Christian and considered myself one until I reached the age of reason. So I have some insight into how they think.

"Redneck" was literally a labor movement term before it became a insult for poor rural people. During the Coalfield Wars (1910s-20s), Appalachian miners—many wearing red bandanas as a union symbol ("red necks")—waged open war against corporately bought private armies and the US military. The Battle of Blair Mountain (1921) saw 10,000+ armed miners (called rednecks by both sides) fighting cops and strikebreakers in the largest labor uprising in U.S. history. Socialists like Eugene Debs even rallied these "rednecks" as class warriors. The term got whitewashed later, but it started as a badge of honor for strikers.

Switched to Thunder instead of Sync and it works much better now

Bernie is a centrist at best. Things like civil rights are bare minimum, I'm talking about fundamental workers rights like the right to unionize, repealing Taft-Hartley, setting up matching programs with unions so that they can buy up their companies and become worker cooperatives, etc.

I believe Bernie is more based than centrism in his real views, but his public views are centrist at best.

He exists to deal with the revolutionary energy that is building and make people feel like their voices are being heard under the current establishment. But the reality is that you need corporate backing to win an election in the US by design. It is a corporate oligarchy, not a democracy

The middle class doesn't exist. There is the working class and the idle rich

Name one left wing policy Democrats have executed in the past 20 years.

They actively block unions when we should be setting up matching programs so that unions can buy up their companies and convert them to worker cooperatives

We should be building high speed rail and getting rid of cars in favor of walkable cities and public transport.

We should be building infrastructure from renewable energy to water delivery systems.

We need a massive increase on corporate taxes and taxes on the rich. I'm even down for a wealth cap at $5 million.

We can't even get basic center-right policies like banning politicians from trading stocks or making sure politicians have frozen assets while in office to prevent them from using their position for their own gain.

To be left wing you have to side with workers rights over property rights, People over employers. That is why the left starts at anti-capitalism.

Well I'm liking thunder a lot more anyway and it's ad free (or I'm just not noticing the ads which is whatever)

Download as PDF. It's so dumb when people send .docx and other project files.

China has over 95% home ownership and no property tax.

Those are all great in the context of US politics. But things like universal healthcare shouldn't even be part of the debate, they should just be the standard expectation.

The profits of investors is a very low priority concern.

What matters is the material conditions of the people.

China let housing markets exist just to get the houses built. Now that they have way more houses than they need, investors are left out to dry like they should be.

There will always be schmucks trying to get rich off the market. It's our job to force the market to build things that people need. The needs of investors are irrelevant.

Its possible for both to be true. Id much prefer a ranked choice voting system.

What's also important would be to 1) unionize businesses over a certain size 2) convert those businesses to worker Cooperatives

A worker cooperative is a business that is owned collectively by all the employees and decisions are made through democracy (structure depending on application).

Some countries have had programs where unions can buy shares of the company they represent and the government will match it. Then either the union eventually owns the majority shares and it effectively becomes a worker cooperative or the state and the union own majority shares.

Tldw; liberals still want capitalism and the class hierarchy it creates. They just want capitalism that is supportive of gay and black people and social safety nets.
