The fact that there has not been a unified Latin American defence coalition against the US formed is crazy to me. Us in the USA want (and more desperately need) liberation from our leadership.

Damn, this is real. I was working Dollar General during this 4th and literally every person working there was personally and negatively impacted by Trumpistan but we still had to sell that crap. My boss was pissed (he is a gay man who lost his trans sister to violence associated with MAGA). This wasnt just 250 4th of july shit, it was straight MAGA.

Do not confuse Technocracy with Socialism. While Chinese Technocracy is Socialist, Technocracy alone can be a massive problem.

While many people do say that to simplify, the singular they has been in use for centuries. If you see a person's silhouette in the distance and you want to talk about something that they did you will you they/them pronouns for them in most dialects of English.

The first small business owner I worked for got busted for human trafficking because one of his slaves died on the job. He was able to somehow maintain not only his business but also was able to go free without any consequences. I got out of there very quickly. From then on I internally scream whenever people start worshiping small businesses.

Authoritarian does not mean anything. Dictatorship is the democratic domination of one group over all others. A dictatorship of the proletariat is inherently more democratic and less corrupt than a dictatorship of the bourgeoise.

No, you are not wrong. The USA is being punished for her crimes. Capitalism is failing, Democracy is rearing its ugly side, traditional values are proving empty, religion is falling flat, race has its ugly side displayed for all to see, patriots cant relate to their national identity anymore. The USA is cannibalising itself. This makes it to where people are losing their future, desperately trying to keep what is familiar, and overall reaching a state of hopelessness/powerlessness.

I want you to really try to make a singular definition of Authoritarianism and Libertarianism that applies to all examples you would classify as authoritarian or libertarian. Is it theoretically possible for them to exist at the same time in the same place? Would that be a common definition? If not, why is your definition different and more importantly do you have enough evidence to justify having a different definition from the majority of people who use those terms?

Capitalist regimes benefit the capitalist class. Socialist regimes benefit the proletarian class. Monarchies sometimes benefit the people because they focus on suitability. Dictatorships benefit their people by only representing the best of society. Democracies sometimes benefit society by challenging the will of the most productive. Anarchies also sometimes benefit because they provide a lot of civil liberties. Egypt is not the only source of Gold. Anarchy is not the only decent system.

Problem #1. Democratic Socialism is almost certain to fail. The best example of this is what happened to President Allende of Chile in the 1970s, every time a socialist is elected there will be powers that cause their assassination and/or overthrow.

Problem #2. Democratic Socialism has ethical issues with maintaining the current system during reform. Many argue that as long as the institutions of liberal democracy remain the same, socialism and by extension communism will be impossible.

Problem #3. If you were to stabilize Democratic Socialism and if that Democratic Socialism were to actually establish socialism, then there would be the problem of maintaining bourgeoise crimes under socialism. There is no practical form of enforcement for right wing oppressors under Democratic Socialism.

Problem #4. This is primarily for liberal socialists such as anarkitties but it is still a problem that needs to be mentioned. Democratic Socialism is simultaneously too authoritarian for liberal socialists and too revisionist for MLs. It often makes temporary unity but that unity simply cannot last. Anarchists want pure communism right now and will fight other revolutionaries to get it, MLs are too closely associated with Nationalistic movements to try to maintain liberal democracy. DemSocs make enemies of the whole left but damnit we aint gonna let fash bash them tho. Just cause we dont like ya dont mean ya aint one of us.

It is becoming increasingly clear in quantum mechanics that the universe cannot be expressed as number plugged into an equation.

I am religious (I know that this is not materialist but I dont care, I dont have the ability to make you able to experience the visions that God gave me) this means that my faith shapes a lot of the politics that I hold. One of which is my view on Israel/Palestine. Based on the Torah and Prophets, Israel is committing an atrocity against the Holy Land and against their brothers by shedding the innocent blood of Juda's brothers. Israel does not deserve its name, it is a Jewish state, it does not represent all of Israel. It kills the other tribes and denys their inheritance. My position is a one state solution that actively tries to eliminate race.
