You are a socialist and want your mind changed? I can't relate but okay. Good luck with reaching your goal.
Why would you think I'm a socialist? A better question is, what is a socialist and why are you so scared of one? Do you have a lot of bogeymen in your life?

Are you retracting your previous post that advocates socialism?

Do really think your second question is better? Marx, Stalin, Mao, Castro, etc. - all socialists and all boogeymen. Damn right I'm scared if a socialist is running our country.

It’s not over, trump could still pull out a win but if he doesn’t, in the words of trump supporters everywhere, fu*k your feelings.

Read my post again. I advocate it over Trumpism and Putinism. Typical of a fox echo chamber dunce to equate Marxism, communism, and Socialism.

Please don't be scared. I think all those people are in the hereafter. Many of us believe in socialized retirement programs, socialized healthcare programs and some type of socialized education. Why you say? Because those are working class and middle class programs that support our "life, liberty and pursuit of happiness". Those programs makes us happier, stronger and more literate as in understanding the difference between social and anti-social programs. Anti-social Libertarian Totalitarian Authoritarian Dictatorships don't care about anyone but yourself is what republicans have moved toward. Democracies are "we the people" as in social behaviors. Democracies are checks and balances to power. If you believe that Trump cares about anything but being in power you have been misinformed. The reason Trump resonates with rural America is because they understandably feel like politicians do not represent them anymore. Citizens United and the cost of Campaigning has shifted representation to those with wealth. Trump is very adept at rallies that gives them hope yet when you follow him in real time you will find that everything he does is like offering peanuts to the majority while giving Filet Mignon to the wealthy including himself and his family. Anyway don't be scared just be informed and you will not fear Joe Biden or Kamala Harris or even Bernie Sanders who is not Marx, Stalin, Mao, Castro etc. If you fear higher taxes then you must be part of the Filet Mignon group. If you fear social programs then you must be anti-social. If you fear a bogeyman that is not real then well that would be out of my understanding.

His taxes will go up because trump is a conman.

Biden's message is good for all of us. It is not F-Y if you don't agree with me. Biden is exactly what a democracy should be. Listening to the other side. Hearing the other side. Reasoning with the other side. Compromising with the other side. That is what a Democracy is about. That is what good and positive social behaviors should be in politics and in all of us. If you want to be anti-social that is fine but please remember that our actions and our words matter in this one life that we have on this planet. Kindness is contagious. Why not? I understand it is not always easy and I fail at kindness sometimes but each time I fail my conscience reminds me that I can be better than that. We need to listen to our conscience when we become frustrated and angry. I know we all got one even if it is buried deep in all the junk we put on top of it.
