There you go. You figured it out. I did all that, and one more day on top of it. It only takes one day to vote.

If they converted to leftism, they could blame their economic troubles on Donald Trump and Jeff Bezos. Clearly it's not just looking for someone to blame.

Well, in theory is pretty different from in practice

I disagree. I know I'll never be a rich capitalist. But if we're all rich communists, then I'll be rich.

You should use Hexbear. There aren't any communists there. Just posers who think communism means supporting dictatorships.

I submit the price of eggs as evidence that if it were about self interest, there'd be a communist revolution tomorrow.

The first one is true.

In democracy, the people rule society

In capitalism, the rich rule the economy

The economy always rules society

In a capitalist democracy, society serves two masters. Both opposites. It's inherently unstable because it's self contradicting.

Those are so similar to each other in comparison with capitalism that at this stage, we mostly use the same words to describe both.

Once, men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.
