Counterpoint: If you ask most elected officials edit: in the US (of either party), any two of those as policy goals would make you a socialist.

    You'll find out when we get done with our "Republic" arc and start the "Empire" one.

    i live in a colony of neoliberalism, im seeing things on a daily basis.

    some of which coming from a direct consequence of the empire's decisions. some of which comes from genocides past.

    there was never a republic in the first place for us.

    And yet you wonder why it's important what America thinks?

    Here's hoping you don't find out.

    im not wondering if its important or not, i'm saying its not. what is your point?

    you seem to get what the empire is capable of, but you dont get that they are actually doing this stuff already as much as they can, everywhere. we are "finding out" by virtue of US's mere existence.

    they will oppress us anyway so might as well think about freedom, and it doesnt matter whether or not the US would like socialism for itself or not, or how their deceiving politicians lie about it.
