🚨Social Democracy is Not Socialism!
One regulates capitalism, the other seeks to replace it
🧵
Let’s start with the obvious: America is not facing a socialism problem - we don’t even have paid maternity leave or universal health care!!
America is facing a fascism threat. Few know that better than myself and my subscribers.
That said, spend some time in the bowels of social media like some of y’all pay me to do, and there is a phrase I’m seeing more and more from left wing accounts, usually accompanying a tweet about how great things are in Western Europe. That caption is some variation of: See, socialism works!!!
No, it does not!
@SNHM085@ProfSteveKeen So… what you are saying, countries prioritised mercantilist policies that did not negatively impact domestic wellbeing?
Your statement can coexist, you just need to acknowledge, that portions of mercantilism are bad 🤷♀️
@MiezeMiezi@philbrokes Gibts wenigstens einen streaming Direktor? Nein, muss ja eine Direktorin sein, weil wenn was schief geht, kommt die Frau Sündenbock 😅
Dear UK journalists,
Have you considered that maybe "balance" with Brexit is no longer platforming 1 Brexiter & 1 Remainer...
But that after 10years of universal expert consensus that it has been harmful, "balance" means platforming those with different views on how to undo it?
