Bro, you’re a commie of course I’m condescending.

[Socialist programs are] a fantasy

I guess we’re living in a fantasy: States:

  1. Social Security
  2. Medicare
  3. Medicaid
  4. Public Education
  5. The Affordable Care Act (ACA)
  6. Unemployment Insurance
  7. SNAP
  8. Not to mention Minimum Wage

The only thing PSL will disenfranchise are programs like those.

Bro, you’re a commie of course I’m condescending.

And yet you can't explain any of your points, or explain why you aren't a Communist. Peak liberalism.

I guess we’re living in a fantasy: States:

  1. Social Security - One of the higher retirement ages

  2. Medicare - single payer is cheaper

  3. Medicaid - single payer is cheaper

  4. Public Education - woefully underfunded and college isn't free

  5. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) - single payer is cheaper

  6. Unemployment Insurance - pathetically small

  7. SNAP - pathetically small

  8. Not to mention Minimum Wage - pathetically small

You have no points, just gestures. Social Programs aren't socialism, you have no plan, just sticking with a sinking ship and trying to pretend there aren't gaping holes in the hull.

Explain exactly why you aren't a Communist, if my being a Communist is enough for you to start malding. You're on a site made by Communists, lol

You’re wasting your breath with a communist party based out of the comfort of New York.

These lunatics would be singing a different tune if they were living in the great communist heaven of Cuba and before cowbell comes at me, that’s where I was born and raised half my life.

Let me say it clearly for the kids on the short bus, fuck communism.
