@TechTerraInvest @PatrickC1995 Slavery: you don't work=you die
Capitalism: you don't work=you die
The builder and the farmer don't enslave you, the systems that restrict access to those needs does.

This only works if you define “coercion” as “having needs.”
But needing food doesn’t mean the farmer enslaved you. Needing shelter doesn’t mean the builder enslaved you.
Slavery is ownership. Wage labor is exchange. You can criticize capitalism without destroying the meaning of words.

No one “earns” a billion dollars. No one can work a billion times harder than anyone else. There is no good, ethical, or righteous billionaire. That kind of wealth can only be accumulated through the exploitation of the working class. No exceptions.

Black democrats, the backbone of the party, aren’t worried about anything. Might wanna rephrase this to “white establishment dems are worried that Kamala Harris may run for president in 2028” and they can be worried all they want. They don’t speak for us! They got us in this mess

@Ethereals68 Imagine using Nixon as a positive example. My great grandmother stopped voting because she voted for Nixon and realized how awful he was.

Democrats could win mandates like this if they would stop being centrists.
