Nonsense.

Bernie has a great following. Biden has a great following. Both are idiots that are more republican than leftists. Bernie was a sell out coward when it counted in 2016. Democrats would rather lose to Republicans than to legit progressives. The Democratic Party has been utterly usurped by the CIA. The SJW corporate "Left" is not at all the same as the classic oldschool left. There is no peace movement. They've all been infiltrated and destroyed. Environmentalists are now called eco-terrorists.

And then there's the whole communist history, good, bad, and very ugly - and I won't delve into that. It's clear "socialism" has issues. It's also abundantly clear that capitalism has issues as we've just entered yet ANOTHER recession/depression.

There's the SJW corporate Left, and the "progressive" Bernie/Tulsi left. You're delusional to believe that the USA has the only good system - meanwhile all of Europe, Canada, etc have MORE that just 1 or 2 parties to vote for. THERE ARE MORE OPTIONS that you don't even seem to know about. The USA even has the Green Party and Libertarian Party - yet you are ruled by the corporatocracy warhawk party with two wings to make you think you have choice, keep you fighting each other, and not fighting the ruling class.

USA is no different than China except you actually believe your propaganda.

USA is already ruled by socialism. It is bailing out Wall Street AGAIN. All of your giant War Machines are funded by socialism, whether you want it or not. Same with your government, police, etc etc etc. Further your government is deeply in bed providing socialist support to all the big corporations, from Big Agra to Big Pharma to Big Oil to Big Education to Big Internet.

Yet your government REFUSES to grant you Universal Health Care like all other civilized nations. Meanwhile the public VASTLY desires it, and a better education system - whether you admit those are also socialist concepts or not.

There are 3 kinds of socialism. I only support the non-government version - worker cooperatives, aka worker directed enterprises - where everyone is part boss. You are partly correct that many socialist governments have massive kill counts. Also many do not, but most anti-socialists forget about Northern Europe and Canada, among others.
