If anything it's the republicans fault for being too complacent, not understanding human nature, and allowing these people to take over so many of our institutions unchecked. Once they are there it's very hard to get them out. Like most cultures we are victims of our own success and that success makes us drop our guard and get soft, and opportunists come in to fill the void.

This didn't happen overnight. It was a gradual process and then Trump got elected and drove them all crazy. Now they are whining up a storm we dare question their authority. Since they have the mainstream media they spin it in such a way it's going to be an uphill battle at this point to gain any headway. We can vote republican but as long as they have our media and schools they pretty much have the final say.

The problem is people on both sides are so corrupt and entitled that they will sell their souls for handouts...whether it's UBI or stock bubbles. I'm talking to the "inflation is fine as long as my stocks go up" crowd that post here. This is the prelude to tyranny and may even give the Marxists and excuse to push forward, which of course is the wrong approach.

A Marxist revolution without eating the rich? Lame.

Also, is Fox not a major news network? I thought it was the largest news network in the nation.

Most Democrat voters these days know they want corporate dystopia and prefer that to third world strongmen preying on old people.

A Marxist society would have no Zuckerbergs.
Is it really that important to use Facebook? I've never used it. I don't see the point.
This is so true. People don't understand what is going on. This is why I say that the right is just as blind as the woke left. We are not seeing a marxist revolution. If we did see a marxist revolution. All of thr rich and wealthy would have fled or use the security apparatuses agaisnt the prolatariat. The rich and the wealthy would not support real world economic changing systems such as, populism, Marxism, nazism or communism. On the other hand. The wealthy and rich will support neo Marxism which focuses more on social identity like race, sex and gender and not classical Marxism which is only class based. If you are a wealthy corporation. Would you fund Bernie sanders or psuedo Marxist blm? The capitalist would fund blm because at its heart blm is not true Marxist due to tenets even though they are trained at it. Also instead of giving my equity to all people, I can just give my equity to people of color and I still have my billions while millions of others suffer.

With that said. I agree with this poster. Alot of you guys confuse Marxism and neo Marxism. Both forms of Marxism are different and neo Marxism is also a critique of Marx and Marxism himself.

In addition to what you've stated, I wouldn't be surprised if the Republican party hasn't been infiltrated by fakes who will vote with the Democrat Socialists.
No doubt. We have already seen it happen.
