I let one person ruin my life. And they're still ruining my life to this day. But if I let it happen, and let it continue on to this day when they no longer are present in my life, then isn't it really me that's ruined my own life? I need to stop blaming other people, take charge, and just make a change. Take control of my fucking life.

Watch: Donald Trump threw a Mexican-American journalist out of his press conference in Iowa

streetpearl

A lot of people were saying, ‘he didn’t have the right to call out/ask a question!’ TRUMP LITERALLY SAID, ‘WHO’S NEXT?” AND HE TRIED TO ASK A QUESTION. SERIOUSLY.

Poor Person: I need food stamps so I don’t starve.

Conservative: That’s lazy. Get a job.

Poor Person: Fine. I got a job, but it doesn’t pay enough. The minimum wage needs to be raised.

Conservative: Still lazy. Go to college so you can get a better job.

Poor Person: Fine. But I’ll need financial assistance to afford college.

Conservative: Still lazy.

Poor Person: Fine. I went to college, put myself in debt, and got a degree. But the only jobs I can get without experience are unpaid internships. Businesses should be required to pay their interns.

Conservative: …

Conservative: Still lazy.

Poor Person: How the hell do you expect me to get out of debt?

Conservative: It’s your own fault. You choose to go to college even though you couldn’t afford it.

Poor Person: But you’re the one who keeps telling poor people to go to college. Are you saying that I’m lazy if I don’t go to college, and lazy if I do?

Conservative: Yes.

Poor Person: Then what the hell should I do?

Conservative: Be born rich.

So my Algebra 2 teacher told me that Bernie was a socialist today. Enlighten me on that please.

He is a democratic socialist. Which is a good thing.

Read this post on why socialism is not what people in america think it means.

If you believe in those three things above, you are also probably a ‘socialist’.

Did you know these people were also ‘socialists’?

Sorry but what the fuck do American’s have against socialists? I don’t get it?

US citizens do not know the know the differences between socialism and communism, they also can’t articulate the difference between either of them and fascism (also due in part to our horrible US-centric education system that frames everything else in a negative lighting).

In the US media landscape (e.g. cable news, talk radio), there’s a continual barrage of right-wing propaganda which, unfortunately and for far too long, has been quite effective in framing debate and defining terms. And since it takes far less effort to lap up such nonsense rather than to think critically, it gets traction.

The message, for quite a long time now is that “free market capitalism” is the only economic mode compatible with freedom (and we Americans love our “freedom”). And the only other option is something very similar to Stalinist Marxism.

We have been ‘brainwashed’ to believe that the word ‘socialism’ is inherently evil and horrible because it’s not ‘american’.

Not to mention that quite literally our children are and have been taught for decades (believe me, I remember) about the main social-economic systems in a very particular, guided way that not only harshly slants socialism, communism, and fascism into a sort of blurred conflation of ideas, but anything at all except capitalism is framed negatively from “silly” to “misguided” to downright “bad and harmful.”

No critical thinking on these matters is encouraged whatsoever, and most of these curriculums will guide children to the notion that capitalism is the only good, fair, and effective system worth considering with quiz or test questions like “explain why capitalism is the best system for the United States.” Children can answer these questions because the majority of that section of their textbook focuses on telling them exactly why that is, with perhaps a paragraph each devoted to the alternatives, excepting communism which gets an extra paragraph or two thanks to WWII and the Cold War.

Tl;dr American children are indoctrinated as early as possible to think “capitalism = good and fair” and “everything else = bad and ineffective” without any sort of deeper examination of why.
