Thanks ❤️
Yeah it would definitely help to know who downvoted or upvoted some blatantly heinous comments.
Having now been fodder to a couple of the 50c army I’m now much less inclined towards the label of Socialism so I’m not sure for the overall motives other than Cult purity.
I’ll be looking for a mbin or piefed instance now 👋

Sadly I fear that's part of their intention (we further cannot rule out far-right nazis masquerading as leftists in order to muddy the well).
Though I completely get your concerns. Have you looked much into Social Democracy?
I take it you haven’t seen my red rose profile picture 😉
But no not as literature, I thought I’d get the foundation of Marx but took a detour on Mao do you have any recommendations?
Oh no I'm sorry. My vision isn't what it used to be and it's tiny on my screen lol. That's funny though
Honestly, I don't have any good recommendations except to say that over the years and having kind of visited most of the points of the political spectrum I've started to settle down here. That when looking for something better that has also been realized somewhere in the world already, I keep coming back to the Nordic Model. Perfect? Maybe not. Best we've seen? By the data, I contend yes. Moreover it doesn't seem like we have to engage in this ends-justify-means pursuit of an unrealized dream like I mentioned before.
