    Good to know you don’t hold me responsible for the last 24 years of American policy.

    I am not chasing perfection. There’s a lot I don’t like and have to look past about psl.

    I’m not asking the gop to stop winning

    It was a real stretch to read your response as a reply to me. Did you reply to the right post?

      If you’re claiming to hold an ounce of socialist leanings and you don’t oppose the GOP, you’re an idiot. They need to be stopped before any progress can be made. Look at the GOP as cancer and the Dems as Chemotherapy. You may not feel good about the Dems, but the GOP will kill the country if left unchecked.

      Supporting third parties is like trying to cure cancer with a chain letter. It achieves nothing, wastes resources, and is super annoying.

        Be careful with insults on world communities. I expect they’ll tolerate fewer and fewer qualifying words as the rhetoric heats up going into November. You’ve also spoken to me enough for a discerning eye to recognize that as a direct insult.

        My vote for psl is by definition in opposition to the gop, although I don’t hold the same ideas as you that opposing the republicans a fundamental communist principle.

        If the republicans were killing the country then it’d be dead already and good riddance. Democrats have consistently tacked right for the last 40 years and the country’s not dead because of it. Harris is running to the right of Regan. I have trouble thinking of a metric by which the country is dying that can be attributed to the Republican Party.

        You keep bringing up what voting for a third party is like. Neither of us live in a world where the gop is a cancer. The gop doesn’t have to be stopped before the country can improve.

        I actually don’t believe that America can have a communist future without some body representing the small bourgeois (closest thing I can think of to the land/local and regional capital axis that best describes the republican base) in the transition to socialism and eventually communism.

        You and I don’t want the same thing.

          You are acting in a manner that strenghthens the party that outlaws workers unions. How is that in anyone’s interest except the bourgeois?

            I don’t see how my actions strengthen the republicans but if the republicans benefit from a person voting psl then shouldn’t the democrats try to appeal to that block of voters in order to get their votes and remove that benefit from their opponent?
