Think of it like a video game HUD where there’s just text floating above a person’s head where you see all their political beliefs, including the degree of bigotry (if any), or whether or not the person believes in the use of violence to acheive polical goals, basically every little detail that would accurately depict people’s political beliefs. Your beliefs are also visible to others. This effect has 1KM radius, including people above and below you.

So, how fucked are you?

(Think of all the authorities in your area that can see your beliefs, including the beliefs regarding the recent incident…)

Social democracy has proven to have some degree of sucess.

Those Vanguardism types such as USSR and China only devolves into totalitarian regimes just with a different group of capitalists in power. China has nothing that resembles what real socialism should be, its just capitalism under a different banner.

China has lifted more people out of poverty than any country or economic system in history. You can’t do that under capitalism, because the gains are too concentrated. You’ve just been propagandized against China.

I lived in China, I have first-hand experience. Don’t get me wrong, I hate capitalism, and China is a capitalist state, just like the US.

Then how did they lift a record number of people out of poverty? Capitalism creates more poverty. Not less.
