What the hell are you talking about? I AM a modern leftist. You need to touch grass.

Crime isn’t going “unpunished,” unless you’re talking about how our prisons are so overcrowded from over-policing that people committing crimes are barely serving any part of their terms, or how some city cops are so upset we don’t want them to have fucking drones and tanks that they’re refusing to even answer calls in rough neighborhoods (slums). High taxes?! Where the hell are high taxes chasing away jobs and opportunities? Are you talking about the fentanyl crisis in San Francisco, so people are leaving because they’re tired of their catalytic converters getting stolen? Or are you talking about the insane housing crisis that people like you seem to want to preserve by not implementing any rezoning or a living wage? Don’t forget to bust unions to make absolutely sure their livelihoods are stripped away for any reason at any moment. Families SPLIT APART by feminism?? You mean the women who are going septic because right wing psychopaths are banning abortion? How dare WOMEN look for medical treatment to deal with health issues as if we’re actual PEOPLE, right? Confused. Lol.

Jesus Christ I can’t with this shit anymore. You live in this totally separate bizarro world that doesn’t exist. I’m tired of treating these insane republican fantasies like they’re real. It has nothing to do with policy issues anymore. How does anyone even try to talk to you?? How can we ever even begin to fix this?? You people literally think there are secret cabals of lizard people eating babies. Congratulations. Any hope I had for the future is now dead.

LMAO, dude just unequivocally proved your original point is not only wrong, but the kind of propoganda that only the most deeply mentally-broken scientologist would believe.

Then you go off on a list of more easily disprovable nonsense! Like you legit said at the end of this to take a look at history while literally ignoring history.

Like people who take “national socialist” at face value and don’t read “actual facist” between the lines. “BUBUBUBU it says socialist HURDUR!”.

Lost souls man…

This is fucking hilarious. You’re literally repeating far right brainwashing word for word.

Boy, if you think Democrats are Marxist then you don’t know your political compass. Both the Republicans use libralism as a base because both take capitalism as granted. Both are technically pro status quo just Democrats believe that they shouldn’t outsource all government and federal assets to the private sector.

Actual leftist infiltration within the party are often looked at as fringe idealist dreamers who are put in places where they must tow the party line or be expelled. That’s why people like Clinton and Biden got the top billing. They were in league with the banks and not going to upset the applecart.

Far leftists grow out of economic hardship just like far right people do. Just leftists don’t think the way to progress is to reset the status quo back to a time where those who are unhappy now are restricted and subjugated back into being unhappy in silence for the whole cycle to begin again… The majority of leftists see Marxism as archaic and ridden with fault. A failed experiment not because the premise of it incorrectly identifying an aspect of the problem but because it was riddled with naivety, violence and a lack of compassion.

The Democrats may not be socially conservative because that’s not their marketing brand but doing small systemic pressure releases like removing restrictions from things like publicly and legally acknowledged spousal rights for gay people isn’t exactly dying on the hills for civil rights either. The democrats believe the beaurocratic game of democracy and capitalism just executed correctly will work. That’s not left. That’s basically just stalling out in the center trying to sit a fence. Calling them leftist is an insult to other the political ideologies that see libralism as a rigged game that will always snowball power unless it is kept in check. To those ideologies Democrats and Republicans are basically the same just the Republicans drank the capitalism flavor-aid and asked for a second cup. If Republicans are in charge you aren’t going to fix the problem. Just attempt to subjugate disparate groups who will find greater and greater solidarity.

Just look at blue states.

I took a look, and what do you know, they consistently outperform “red” states by almost every metric.
