Lol it’s just a weird thing to get hung up on is all. Just because somebody supports a small business over a mega corp doesn’t mean they are thrilled with capitalism.



No one but you suggested that was happening?



Seems like a made up issue to talk about hating a system when there’s more than enough real or impactful issues, I didn’t mean to hurt so many feelings.



Conservatives constantly use small businesses as a front to pass the fiscal policies that you are alluding to. I can’t even count the number of times a conservative politician has used the phrase “small businesses are the backbone of America”


Also, the only person who seems too emotional is you.



didn’t know groups of liberals talking about small business was affecting so many people in the country so deeply



Wut?

Someone is being a little sensitive today… What’s got you so touchy about the subject? You own a failing small business or something?

Do you think supporting small business is a left aligned practice and you just need to let people know how much hate you have available?



Ahh yes, supporting le petit bourgeoisie and their dreams to become a small business tyrant … Totally a central tenet of socialist theory.


The problem with small business owners is that they overwhelmingly support the conservative machine because the actual upper class throw them bones to use them as a political buffer between themselves and the working class.


The simple fact is that most small businesses are dependent on tax breaks and low minimum wages to stay in business, and are often worse and more dangerous places to be employed than larger corporations.

Not when compared to the maintenance and cost of installing the amount of multi lane interstate and highways we currently have in the US.

Electric rail isn't a solution for every commuter in the US, but it is the solution for most commuters, as 80% of Americans live in urban environments.

Also, the argument that America is too large to have rail isnt very logical when countries like Russia or China depend on it for the vast majority of their logistics.

> making electrified transport a reality

Electrified rail remains the most efficient form of transportation and has been available since the late 1800s......

People are just so obsessed with cars that they ignored the safest, most efficient, and environmentally friendly option for over a hundred years.

I guess the future is bound to be filled with dangerous traffic with even heavier cars, and filled with millions of batteries filled with lithium mined by impoverished children.

Women


economic inequality
unpaid labor and caregiving
gender based violence
greater healthcare discrepancies
professional and political barriers
education barriers


Do you see the discrepancies between the two list? Everything you listed is something that we men either do to ourselves, or is done to us by a political/economic entity that is dominated by other males. The same can’t be said for list for women.

My super power… Being to dumb to not be an ally.


All gender affirmation will be supported via my innate ability of being an oaf.

Great… Another year of me being completely oblivious and unable to tell people what year it is.


I think I have something akin to face blindness but for gender. Not too long ago I was in a groomsmen for my buddy and his sister was one of the bridesmaids. Im told she was trans, but I had no idea, and he ended up making fun of me for not being aware of it.


Like what do you people want from me? She was in a pretty dress, how am I supposed to know?

Eh… Those types of studies are usually pushed by the dod from places like the Brookings institute to validate their own recruiting practices. The data behind them is questionable at best.


For example they claim that “middle class” starts at 38k per household income, which is below the poverty level for most states with a 3 person household.

It’s almost like soldiers are not immune to the material conditions that help perpetuate the capitalist empire…?


Historically one of the most important missions for any revolution is to spread class consciousness among the imperialist troops.


I don’t really know how people really expect a revolution to be possible while withholding class solidarity from the only people who have military training.

It’s not just weird, it’s materially impossible.



I was mainly talking about the people being weirdos. Every monarchist I’ve ever run into have been extreme oddballs.

Technically you can be an anticapitalist and still not a leftist. You could be one of those weirdo turbo conservative monarchists.
