>>545926880i'll explain, it's so simple.remember how your mom used to just bitch until somebody else did something?that's it.that's all leftists.complain, bitch, piss, and moan until somebody else solves it for them.either with their money, their actions, or their intellect.never forget:>rioting>protesting>violence>rigging electionsare all forms of bitching.
>>545926880>Democratic>Socialistwhat's that
>>545926880your parents are brown.
>>545926880this faggot thinks he's gonna be rich and famous one day lol

>>545926880Its simple. People, left to their own devices, are at the mercy of greedy elites who will take everything they can get away with and give nothing back. The exact method and means by which they accumulate money and power depends on the era of history, but the pattern of behavior doesn't. The only entity that realistically can hold the wealthy elites in check and regulate them to benefit the common people in a nonviolent manner is the government. Without the government filling this role, the inevitable cycle is that the wealthy elites soak up all of the resources, get high on their own farts, and eventually break the system so badly that eventually the rest of the population throws a revolt about it and murders most of them and resets the board. Again, this pattern plays out throughout history, and is generally a real mess of a time. Democratic socialists believe that the best way to avoid such revolts is to keep them from becoming necessary in the first place, using government taxes on the wealthy and regulation of their businesses to promote higher quality of life for the common man even if it makes rich people sad because they only get to have 2 billion dollars instead of 15, however will they survive on such a meager income? The crossover becomes the belief that Democracy is the form of government that makes the most people happy, and socialism is the economic position that makes the most people happy, and then you combine the two for two great tastes that taste great together.Keep in mind that from the perspective of the modern day and its right leaning politics, 1950s to 1970s america was 'democratic socialist' on out current political spectrum. Despite the republicans being called 'conservatives', the DSA is ironically a return to tradition.
>>545927457You think the middle class will spare you when they launch the revolution if you just sino for them enough lol
>>545926880Ur mum
>>545927858From 1950-1970s we had free market capitalism, soxialism was in thinkableWe have shifted so far left that even republicans are defending social security. We’re now in socialist land
>>545926880>over $100k per yearThat is a lower middle class family.
>>545927994If you make over $50k a year you’re a disgusting creep. 100k you should be burned aliveI’m not even a socialist. I’m a Republican.
>>545927922In the 1950s-1970s we taxed the rich at a rate of 70% or more, unions were protected and the middle class was strong, it was illegal for banks to gamble with the contents of your savings accounts for their own profits, and monopolies were broken up by antitrust laws so that one or two rich fuckers couldn't just own everything. We lost all of that since then. Now the rich are only taxed at a 30% rate BEFORE they start cooking their books to avoid paying even that, unions are dead and the gig economy is king where people work 39.75 hours a week and get no benefits, the banks gambling with YOUR money has already crashed the economy once since we made it legal for them to do so and its going to happen again soon, and the economy is increasingly falling under the ownership of just a handful of super-corps that have their fingers in everything.
>>545928536And who owns super corps? You do, I do. We all do.In the 1950s to 1970s we didn’t have gay marriage or transgender crap. Society was focused on getting young people high paying jobs not slashing their cocks off. It was way more Conservative than the LGBtQ transgender socialists
>>545927994I think thats the joke..
>>545928698Nonsense disingenuous post taking advantage of linguistic ambiguity to pretend that a discussion about economic progressive policy is actually talking about social progressive policy because they share a word. Fuck off.
>>545928880I’m talking about why the 1950s to 1970s was a good timeAnd you started bringing in irrelevant shit like tax rates and anti-trust laws and bank savingsFuck off
>>545927321>>rioting>>protesting>>violenceyou mean like Jan. 6? dumbfuck>it's okay when MIGA does it!!!absolute retard
>>545928931>>And you started bringing in irrelevant shit like tax rates and anti-trust laws and bank savingsAh yes, because none of these have anything to do with the political spectrum/conservatism, instead it's as you say, "is side pro-tranny or anti-tranny?". Fascinating.
>>545926880white guilt and an incessant need to appeal to their economic inferiors. People nowadays place far too much value on appearances and public perception. And human society is rapidly devolving into the equivalent of monkeys in suits because of it.Freedom of speech doesn't just mean protect the feel-good talk. It also protects the retard's hateful rhetoric as well. You try to suppress one and praise the other, and it won't be long before that kettle starts steaming. And that's when the violence really starts kicking off.
