ICE is kidnapping people!
The government is disappearing people!
People who study fascism are fleeing the country!
This is fascism and will not be defeated by Democratic Party.
You can’t be tolerant of fascism. You fight fascism by any means necessary.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.
Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.
Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

Socialism works everywhere it has been tried and works amazingly until the US works to destroy it.
Saying it “fails” is like saying someone fails to walk after you shoot them in the spine.

I love democracy. Democracy replacing dictatorships/monarchy in the government was human evolution. Now we need to replace dictatorships in our workplaces with democracy for our next phase of human evolution

And as inseparable. Before one says, "but I benefit from capitalism," consider how the other two also provide benefits, usually to the same people.
