I'm not thoroughly read up on theory and I'm not about to heavily defend the previous argument. I'm still not certain after reading in between replying here.

I don't see why a centralized state can't have more flattened power hierarchies, especially as needs and material conditions are improved.

Plenty of communists see a form of Anarchism as the goal endpoint, but realize the need for strong state power in the hands of workers to get there.

China also spreads the wealth out among the population and they'll execute the wealthy if they break the law. Like the guy who knowingly sold bad baby formula.

It ain't perfect, but they're doing pretty well in their transitionary socialist state.

Wow that's some shitty hasbara for your genocidal apartheid ethnostate grabbing all the land around it and displacing millions living there.

It's capitalism.

Oil companies have known about this shit since the 70s and there's been billions spent to manufacture your consent, keep the current power structures, and prevent change. Both parties maintain that status quo, don't forget that.

Liberals ultimately agree that capitalism is the way to structure society (but make it inclusive and give people rights, etc etc), while the secondary sign shows exactly where that inclusive line is drawn.

It's because of how repulsive right wing politics are

Because feeding starving Gazans will interrupt the genocide.

In this hypothetical, it would be voting between Hitler and Hitler-lite while the holocaust is on going... and former Hitler-lite was responsible!

I respect that stance.

The only people I'm deeply frustrated by are the ones hand wringing about why people didn't vote the way they wanted, and hand wave how dogshit Kamala was.
