Socialism

The other thing to - not once did she say anything about holding PRC or Russia acountable for their environmental sins. Just targeting white capitalistic socities.

I was particularly impressed at how she sells white genocide as "racial justice".

Nope, was well before him, he just believed a well-armed revolution was better than using stones against a government that was willing to use guns to quell any revolution, "peacefull" or not.

Again - where are the anti-leftist adds? Plenty of anti-right, e.g., "anti-hate", adds out there....why are those in the top who oppose socialism just folding? Have they conceded?

Are you sure you want to combine “anti-hate” with “anti-right”?

Lolz - you tell me? Seems more and more it's becoming "hateful" to have non-marxists political views...demonize your enemy right?

The plan also imagines creating governmental support for “transitioning” minority communities. The deal shall: “ensure a ‘just transition’ for all workers, low-income communities, communities of color, indigenous communities, rural and urban communities and the front-line communities most affected by climate change, pollution and other environmental harm including by ensuring that local implementation of the transition is led from the community level.”

More, Ocasio-Cortez sees this plan is being a vehicle through which social equality might finally realized through the use of reparations to right historical injustices. The final Green New Deal will “mitigate deeply entrenched racial, regional and gender-based inequalities in income and wealth (including, without limitation, ensuring that federal and other investment will be equitably distributed to historically impoverished, low income, deindustrialized or other marginalized communities in such a way that builds wealth and ownership at the community level).”

And if that weren’t enough to ensure that Democratic Socialism could be fully realized in America, the plan includes failsafe in the form of universal income and Medicare for All: The plan, it says, shall “include additional measures such as basic income programs, universal health care programs and any others as the select committee may deem appropriate to promote economic security, labor market flexibility and entrepreneurism.”

Ocasio-Cortez clarifies that this plan would not only need to be financed by taxpayers, but also the Federal Reserve and other institutions the government can create. The end of the document contains a Q&A, one of which deals with the plan’s funding: “The Federal Reserve can extend credit to power these projects and investments, new public banks can be created (as in WWII) to extend credit and a combination of various taxation tools (including taxes on carbon and other emissions and progressive wealth taxes) can be employed.”

Ocasio-Cortez may not be in Congress yet, but she already has a plan to remake the way Americans drive, commute, live, work, and even use the financial system. Let there be little doubt how she aspires to wield power in Washington.

At what point, does it become treason to the Constitution? How did she take her oath?

I understand socialism a lot better ever since I started listening to Mike Duncan's Revolutions podcast.

Really parsing out the French Revolution helped sort the continuum out for me.

Looking forward to his Russian Revolution series... coming soon.

Quick summary - Mobilizing the plebs has been a power play move since the dawn of large scale politics... often not in the interests of the plebs themselves... but has moved pleb interests forward from time to time....
