I’ll give some examples of great implementations of socialism that drives welfare in today’s democracies, as I personally believe that socialism can’t exist without democracy, as it’s one of the core values of the concept, that’s it’s controlled by the people.

One of socialisms ultimate goals are also equality, which my examples will show.

• Free education
• UBI if you get fired
• UBI for old people
• UBI for students
• Free health care (duh)
• Free dental (normally only till age of 18 today)
• Basic insurance paid by the government

These are just the big ones that really helps to make sure that very few people are actually poor and are getting desperate because of it.

Also, it’s always important to say that socialism and capitalism are NOT mutually exclusive. It’s perfectly normal to have all these concepts from socialism in a capitalist country.

I think we can agree that a country with 100% capitalism or socialism is not the best way to go.

Socialism is not a ‘one thing’ . It’s a concept as a whole. You can have good or bad socialism and everything in between.

The world is far more nuanced than that.

literal screams of frustration trying to coordinate mice.

Hold on boys, there’s an actual chance that our generation will be gamer gods for all time to come.

Americans being afraid of socialism is proof that propaganda works. It’s literally for the people.

Well, that’s not true.

We say it because both US parties are very similar, and both of them are very right leaning compared to the rest of the western world.

It also indicates that’s there’s no democracy in the US, because there’s only really one choice.

Even the historical, biggest right wing party in Denmark would not remove any of the things you mentioned, except school lunches.

And I assume that it may also vary from prison to prison, as prisons are privatised in the US?

Jesus, people don’t even get internet access in US prisons?

Save is also going away for most thinks, so I think you’re actually a little ahead of our time with that.

Even though this is a great idea, it’s also incredibly unreasonable.

There will be people cheating the hell out of this, because let’s face it. What people need is not a free computer. They need food and money.

What ever that is possible to scrape from these machines, the market will open for it today if you launch your computer tomorrow.

It’s a nice thought, but it’s the wrong way going around this. If you really want to make a difference, you open up your business somewhere in an area you want to help and you create jobs.

Stable income is a sure way road to decrease in crinimal activity and a more safe society. THEN you can consider providing free stuff, when there’s no reason to abuse it.

Maybe I’m too pessimistic, and I’d love to be convinced otherwise.

Hamas, the government of Palestine, is the enemy.

Yeah, if you side with the oppressor. You know that Israel starved Gaza for 3 weeks before Hamas even responded?

They literally cut off food, clean water, medical supplies for 3 fucking weeks before the first attack. People’s family were dying in the hospitals completely unnecessarily.

Ask yourself if you honestly think that anyone else would act differently. Do you honestly think that you would act different when you see your father/mother/brother/sister die because Israel blocked off all your help because of “politics”?

That’s the story that doesn’t reach the US and many places in the western world. How it all began.

And if you really want to know how Palestine has been fucked over, you’d have to go back to 1945. When you know the history, there’s no fucking way you would side with Israel.

War is always political or religious.

They always have a choice. One solution is just more profitable than the other.

If Israel would fall or weaken, that would also mean that the only country in the whole middle east, that doesn’t hate the US with all their guts, would be a weaker ally.

This varries alot depending on where you live.

Normally it’s like this.

First it goes into the water, then it goes to the ground, which normally filters it very well. BUT if this is generally a polluted area, and also depending on the composition of the earth, it may not filter it at all. We assume that there’s some filtering though.

Now it gets really country-dependent. Some countries filter the tap water very well, some adds chlorine to ‘cleanse’ it, and some may not do a very good job entirely.

I’m no expert in which countries around the world do what, but it’s probably something you can look up for your area.

Generally though, it’s worse for you to inhale (unless the water is just polluted in other ways)

Funny thing, Jesus was the biggest socialist world wide. He only lost his shit for real 2 times in the bible and both were because of capitalists.

Pretty ironic for the good 'ol Republicans. Evil fuckers.

No it’s not.

I’m referring only to the fact that poor people have it much worse than rich. That’s not fun nor a joke.

Probably, but could might as well be any other 3rd world state.

Imagine that this needs to be your thought process for an election. Fucking sad.

And if someone thinks the above comment is wrong, you are victim of the exact same propaganda that makes Russians support Putin. Just on the western side.
