MrAuthoritarian:
Essentially there is a fracturing within the United States democratic party between your traditional liberal progressive capitalists and the more socialist leaning liberals that call themselves Marxists but in reality don’t know a thing about Marxism.
Liberalism is going through an identity crisis politically because economic capitalism particularly late stage economic capitalism is no longer working for a majority of people anymore.
Likewise the MAGA crowd, republicans, and libertarians sound increasingly unhinged because they’re running out of ways justifying an out of control economically capitalist system.
K: it is quite funny just how wrong you are, in virtually every sentence
is wrong… for example, you keep thinking that liberals are also
capitalist… but in fact, that isn’t true… the problem is lies within
the very terms you use… for example, there is a political system
and their is an economic system… and you keep mixing the two…
a liberal isn’t one who is concerned with economics… we are concerned
with the political… a liberal is one who is about the politics, not the
economics in the same way as conservatives are…
a Marxist, they are concerned with the economics, cause
Marx, wasn’t about politics, he was and he called himself
an economist… not a politician… he felt that the basic
substructure of society was economics, not politics…
and this is clearly something you have a problem understanding…
read ‘‘Das Capital’’ and you will see as anyone who has read it,
I have, that it is an economic book, not a political book…
and until you understand that basic 101 fact, you don’t know
anything… so, the Marxists of the world follow Marx in upholding
the economics, whereas the liberals are engaged with the political..
and until you understand that, you are and always will be, ignorant…
When a liberal see a homeless person, we don’t seek out economic
solutions, we seek out political solutions…for that is the heart
of being liberal, it is about the political, not the economic…
you keep mixing up the political and the economic, like
some dumbfuck congressmen from Alabama…
Conservatives engage economically, look at their solutions
to problems… it always has an economic aspect, not necessarily
a political aspect… what are the solutions for conservatives?
tax breaks, lower taxes, less regulations, and those are economic
solutions, not political solutions… look at the solutions offered
by liberals and look at the solutions offered by conservatives…
one is political and one is economic… the conservative drive to
return to the laissez faire and robber baron of the late 1900 century
is another example of conservatives attempt to engage economically
with our problems, not politically…that is what our current conservatives
are trying to do, bring back the Robber barons of the late 19th century…
which directly lead into Teddy Roosevelt who actively engaged
in breaking up big businesses monopolies and ended the
laissez faire government… that is why conservatives so pray
at the feet of Musk…and IQ45… wealth is next in line to god…
but liberals don’t believe in that… they hold to political solutions,
not economic ones…and that is why you are as wrong as one can
possible be wrong… if you try to connect up liberals with economics,
that is the path to failure…
