Let me guess, you’re either a communist,
Personally, yes, but only in Garry’s Mod, and on tuesdays.
a Maoist,
I don’t know, do i look like a cult member who screams at old retired white women at DSA rallies to you? Maoism was only relevant so far as Mao himself was alive and the Russian communist party dominated progressive movements worldwide and promoted demobilization. The maoists tried to offer an active alternative but ultimately failed given their incoherent strategies.
an anarcho-communist,
I have disagreements with the anarchist current given their propensity to declare the strategy of dual power as an end in itself rather than a means for something more serious down the line.
a revolutionary socialist, a libertarian socialist,
I’m not sure these labels are clear enough? “Liberty” is always a mystified word that obscures relations of power more than it clarifies anything, so i reject it.
So with that in mind, I really do not think it’s wise for either one of us to make such judgments as if our countries work the exact same ways as each other’s, since we both appear to not really know a whole lot about the other country, myself regarding Brazil, and yourself regarding America.
I’m not American myself and neither have i visited the land, but i am an avid reader on its history and society, and judging by the policy track record of the Democratic Party, they seem wholly incapable and inadequately equipped to resist the current GOP political onslaught. This was likely inevitable considering the Democrats are as much a party of big business as their nominal opponents are. As a result, their platform is less capable of base mobilization than the GOP is, considering their now decades-old abandonment of welfare policies in favor of the neoliberal consensus.
