    It wouldn’t even happen under the current government. Republicans and liberals are too afraid of what they call government overreach.

    Bernie isn’t a capitalist, I think y’all are wayyyy overthinking this one lol

          How does social democracy affirm capitalism over socialism? By maintaining private ownership of the means of production without transitioning to a dictatorship of the proletariat. How is Bernie a social democrat? By holding to reform over revolution, and siding with the US over overthrowing it.

                My point is the “revolution” you are gesturing to isn’t there.

                The working class right now doesn’t work together, Bernie and people like him are trying to get them together, but you needlessly nitpicking doesn’t do one fucking iota to a revolution.

                Anyway left is better, and no that doesn’t include neo libs and their obvious attraction to the right.

                  In order to actually organize, it’s important to align in an actual working class political party. Bernie is working within the Democrats and not supporting actual movement away from them. I am not “needlessly nitpicking,” revolutionary strategy requires building up a revolutionary org like PSL.
