There’s a difference between supporting capitalism, and understanding that we currently live in a capitalistic world order and in order to make change we need to work within the systems and settle for incremental progress.
Democratic Socialism has no ethical end game. It’s a compromise with the ruling class remaining the ruling class. It’s a slightly lesser evil, but still evil. It’s just another liberal hangout.
The end game is incremental progress by working within the systems that are in place to achieve gradual change.
It’s not about compromising with the ruling class. If any DemSoc is going about it that way, they’re doing it wrong.
Mamdani is doing great things for New York, none of which would be happening if because of some ideological purism he decided to stay home and be a keyboard warrior instead of getting into politics.
You’re quite rude. It would do liberals a lot of good to read some theory. They’d understand what the “tankies” are talking about rather than dismissing them as lunatics.
The best of the Democratic Socialist countries are still ran by child murdering shitbags. They’re probably gearing up to bomb schools alongside the US.
