Communism attempts to suppress and eliminate greed, ego, a lust for power, and a want to be rewarded for what you do. This is impossible.
Capitalism takes all of greed, ego, lust for power, a need for reward, and maximizes these aspects of human nature. This is unsustainable.
@Frasier67Blank@trouble_man90 Platner is still not a Nazi - people didn't support him because of a tattoo, they support the policy platform which is one that is inclusive of all people and uplifting to all people.
Platner is the wrong messenger, but the message isn't any less correct or just because of him.
@Frasier67Blank@trouble_man90 Okay you homonculus I am saying you fight for laws like that because they are CORRECT. Passing Universal Healthcare, like Civil Rights, is a thing people should fight for because it is just to do so.
Civil Rights passed because people came together.
@Frasier67Blank@trouble_man90 Bitch we're here talking right now because you're complaining about pointless shit.
Check yourself in the mirror and try not to crack it.
@DemonFly666@StuSalad@TerryWatkinsJr1 It was a claim made by a disgruntled Republican and was dismissed years ago. It is literally already a settled matter.
@ok_post_guy Being aligned with Platner on policy has nothing to do with personal life shit.
You can't catch "alleged rapist" it is not a disease, Jackson doesn't have that baggage from being on stage with Platner, agreeing with a working-class agenda and universal healthcare.
@Kingofqueenanne@DannyKPolitics If she doesn't sue Platner as a result of all of this, he should sue her if he believes his own words.
This is libel and slander if untrue, and false allegations should mean the accuser faces the sentence the accused would face if the shoe was on the other foot.
@adamscochran Troy Jackson is the best candidate to carry forward the platform and policies that Maine Democratic Primary voters overwhelmingly supported.
@Julesnader386 Troy Jackson is the only realistic choice that doesn't undermine the policy platform and message that Maine Democrats voted for in the primary.
Jackson and Platner campaigned on the same stage and are both Sanders-aligned.
@AprilRe14828678@emilyslist You consider AOC, Rashida Tlaib, Ilhan Omar, Summer Lee, Jamaal Bowman, and other politicians like them to be MAGA minions?
You're as wrong as you are crazy likely-internet-bot.
@Lucius_G_P@hjessy_ Platner and Jackson both campaigned on stage together with Bernie Sanders, they have virtually the same platform.
If Jackson ends up being the replacement, that is ideologically acceptable - any other candidate would undermine the platform that won over 70% of the vote.
@fred_guttenberg Does Lebanon have a right to exist? Does Iran have a right to exist? Do Palestinians have a right to exist ESPECIALLY within Israel, Gaza, The West Bank -- without being subject to apartheid, genocide, being removed from their homes by pogroms e.t.c.
@Derek2245122@Popstonox Eric Swalwell and Andrew Cuomo didn't destroy the status quo, the progressive movement can and will move on with or without Graham Platner.
@ReevesRocks1@TroyJackson207 Look at you throwing rocks in your glass house.
Republicans are the party of Trump, of Roy Moore, of Matt Gaetz. The list goes on.
You have no moral high ground.
