      To be honest, I have nothing against socialists. I consider myself a soc Dem. I have many friends that are socialists. My issue is with how shallow and superficial the conversation is. Of your whole world thesis starts and ends with class warfare, there simply isn’t much to discuss. There are no prescriptions- just empty rhetoric. At the end of the say it’s horseshoe anti-establishment.

          Why don’t you provide counterargument. Or interesting conversation. Anything to instill that it’s not just performative art form you guys.

              The problem is that you’re not actually contributing to the discussion. You’re just parroting talking points and actively turning people away from your stance by being annoying.

              It’s not super dissimilar to what the trump cultists do.

                  No one is arguing that you’re wrong. You can be right and still annoying about it.

                  You’re not opening anyone’s minds on this. You’re just being one of the echos in the chamber and turning away people who support your cause.

                  It’s the same as being one of those annoying vegans. Like, no shit factory farming is bad, but the average person isn’t really in any position to make those changes.

              Better keep “challenging the status quo” warrior. Don’t cut yourself on all that edge, m’lord.
