Things seem bleak, but I've seen a lot of positive social change here in recent years, and that gives me hope. The world is very different than it was in the 70s when I was born and in many ways, for the better
Lots of Americans don't seem to understand that Trump doesn't need to be a dictator when we already have a dictatorship of capital that owns both Parties.
MLK warned us 75 years ago that it was time to move beyond capitalism:
“I’m much more socialistic in my economic theory than capitalistic. Capitalism’s outlived its usefulness. It has brought about a system that takes necessities from the masses to give luxuries to the classes.”
It's funny to see people acting like anything's really going to change tomorrow.
Those of us here in the leftist space understand the direction things have been moving for decades regardless of who's in office.
That's only going to continue with Trump. 1/2
Chinese people on Rednote are just now realizing America is a complete dystopia. They assumed Americans lived like them
This user compares America to “Cyberpunk”, a game that depicts a broken post apocalyptic society
Chinese people simply talking to America is way more effective than any propaganda the Chinese government could create
The ICE raids are set to begin.

The oligarchy is NOT taking shape. The oligarchy was already here & thriving under Biden’s presidency as billionaires increased their wealth by $1.5 trillion. The blue corporate party cannot save us from the red corporate party because they both serve the same corrupt oligarchy.
Stop talking about republicans & democrats & start talking about the wealthy & the working classes.
Stop discussing "left and right" & start discussing top & bottom.
Stop concerning with having the most & best & start concerning everyone having enough.
Start thinking.
Biden: “Today an oligarchy is taking shape in America of extreme wealth, power and influence that threatens our democracy.”
The oligarchs got richer under Biden’s presidency increasing their wealth by 88%.
Don’t fall for Democrats’ lip service. Both parties serve the Oligarchy.
So it's dangerous for China to have the ability to access our data and manipulate us via social media apps.
But it's okay for America's billionaires to have the ability to access our data and manipulate us via social media apps.
Do I have this right?
Cuba is a Socialist country and one of the poorest in the world suffering under a 60+ year economic blockade by the richest country in the world.
Guess which one has better healthcare, life expectancy, literacy, lower infant mortality and every type of crime.
It ain't the USA.
