Sada kad je Demokratska stranka za svoju najnoviju zvijezdu napokon izabrala otvorenu socijalisticu, socijalisti su u svojim sofama i na svojim kaučevima (s kojih već deseteljećima cvile za besplatne stari) otvorili svoje prozore vičući u nebo sva svoja nadanja i snove, i ono najbitnije, svoju listu zahtjeva.
Ali ponekad njihovi zahtjevi mogu biti toliko neprihvatljivi da jedino što možete učiniti je puknuti u smijeh:
I literally don’t care about “how will we pay for this?!?!!!?” We paid for a $1 trillion plus tax cut and increased the defense budget. We paid trillions of dollars on wars that we lost. We can afford whatever we want, and every smug MBA cheese dick in the mentions knows it.

we could not spend $800+ billion a year on “defense.” We could raise taxes on the super wealthy and have financial transaction taxes (and close the loopholes!) we could nationalize our healthcare system and provide better care for far less. Every other developed country does this

We’re the wealthiest country in the history of humanity and our currency is the global reserve. We could absolutely do this, and in fact if we don’t do this then our country is headed for a hideous and murderous decline

A sada njihova lista zahtjeva:
I want:
• nationalized health care free for all (to include abortion!) at the point of use with no fees for anyone
• free public university / trade school / vocational school with no fees for anyone
• a federal jobs guarantee that explicitly is not military or law enforcement— libertarianism in 4 words: pothead who is racist (@inthesedeserts) July 1, 2018
• a massive cut to defense spending closing all our bases abroad in the next 5 years
• full decriminalization of all drugs with cannabis being legalized nationwide
• nationwide ban on cash bail and for-profit prisons
• automatic voter registration and a nat’l voting holiday— libertarianism in 4 words: pothead who is racist (@inthesedeserts) July 1, 2018
Tek se počeo zagrijavati:
• a guaranteed right to housing with a total and complete ban on subsidizing private landlords. Build more public housing and maintain it everywhere
• DC and PR statehood
• Pack the SCOTUS
• Abolish ICE, CBP, and DHS
• Immigration amnesty and a path to citizenship for all— libertarianism in 4 words: pothead who is racist (@inthesedeserts) July 1, 2018
• 100 percent renewable energy by 2030
• fight climate change with the same level of national commitment as the war effort in World War II
• community led policing nationwide
• an Iraq Truth and Reconciliation Commission
• expunge records for everyone with drug convictions— libertarianism in 4 words: pothead who is racist (@inthesedeserts) July 1, 2018
• a Marshall Plan level effort to rebuild our infrastructure nationwide
• rebuild public education and end for-profit charter schools and testing
• public campaign financing, ban dark money / corporate donations, limit individual donation amounts— libertarianism in 4 words: pothead who is racist (@inthesedeserts) July 1, 2018
• Free public broadband
• Free public transportation
• Free public childcare
• Actually enforce laws making same-sex marriage and adoption legal nationwide (Why is it still legal to fire people for being gay?)
• Devote the full brunt of state power to fighting discrimination— libertarianism in 4 words: pothead who is racist (@inthesedeserts) July 1, 2018
A kako bi socijalisti okarakterizirali one koji im se protive?
We don’t need the incorrigible racist vote. We don’t need your Meemaw or your Facebook Uncle. We just need people who don’t vote to realize that all of this is within reach if we want it badly enough.

Also if you agree with this or like the direction this is going, join @DemSocialists and help organize your community. With enough of us working together, this can happen. We don’t need the fash vote, or the racist vote, or the misogynist vote, or the nativist vote. We need us.

Ups; ova lista nije kompletna!
Also, I forgot:
• Blanket student loan forgiveness, no questions asked
• public / community-owned investment banking nationwide
• postal banking nationwide
• reinstate Glass-Steagall
• financial transaction taxes— libertarianism in 4 words: pothead who is racist (@inthesedeserts) July 1, 2018
I have also made a critical oversight: there needs to be an absolute guarantee of healthcare, nutrition, income, accessibility, treatment, and social support for people with disabilities and those unable to work

A sada malo besplatnih instrukcija:
Hey everyone if you like this thread and want policy details, read this book entitled “Red Bologna” about the ways that the Italian Communist Party used people-centric policy to improve lives and civic health in Bologna in the 1970s https://t.co/vfd6GP9dYs

Ah, the clarion call for America to become Venezuela.

Tada je socijalist dobio dozu stvarnosti:
I want:
-Personal responsibility
-Personal accountability
-Basic financial literacy for all
-A return to having a sense of humor
-And people to stop being whiny b*tches all the timeOh, and ice cream. Can't forget the ice cream. https://t.co/VdiPhTl6xK

Što je on istog trenutka izvrnuo na stari dobri ljevičarski način:
Let me translate this. Carol wants:
-The cops to murder people she doesn't like
-Never to pay taxes
-Smug z-grade interpretations of the Chicago school listed as canon
-To be allowed to be racist online
-To be very racist online https://t.co/UDqqaY40qr— libertarianism in 4 words: pothead who is racist (@inthesedeserts) July 2, 2018
Waaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh.
