Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
the only Socdems in the States that is popular enough to start their own party is Sanders and AOC. They are not comparable to Corbyn. Corbyn has been consistent in his opposition to Western Imperialism and support for Palestine. Sanders and AOC are servants of US Empire and Israel. Corbyn supported the Pink Wave and Hugo Chavez, Sanders called Chavez "another dead Communist dictator". Sanders is garbage and AOC will probably be worse.
The difference people need to understand is that Corbyn holds ML positions on almost all international issues but plays the electoralism game with socdem policy.
AOC and Bernie on the other hand hold the liberal position on all international issues and hold socdem policy.
Corbyn is a real socialist doing socdem policy. These other two are liberals doing socdem policy.
Agree that Sanders and Aoc are just a waste and meant to take any progressive energy and dampen it and absorb it into the Democratic party. The fact they haven't started a new party is just more evidence of this.
