The Democratic Party establishment is aligned with Dominion Energy, a regulated monopoly, and supportive of Dominion’s desire to build the Atlantic Coast natural gas pipeline across Virginia. Like their GOP counterparts, the Democrats are recipients of the cash Virginia’s top corporate political contributor pumps into the system, and the Democratic Party of Virginia received $125,000 in 2016, according to the Virginia Public Access Project. Carter opposes its plan for a natural gas pipeline and opposed its plan for a high-voltage transmission line that was to go through residential neighborhoods in Prince William County; the plan has stalled under local resistance. Environmentalists oppose the pipeline plan, with some questioning whether Atlantic Coast is necessary for Virginia’s power needs. “I’m to the left of them on economic policy,” Carter said of his party. “I am unabashedly pro-union, pro-worker. I’m openly fighting against the large corporate interests. That’s something that you don’t see a lot of politicians in either party do very much of, and that’s something that Virginia frankly has not seen very much of since the days of Henry Howell.”

The propaganda isn't working. Everything is getting absurdly expensive everywhere. The contradictions are emerging.
Unfortunately this will not be enough to save Americans and their country. Core imperialist nations will thwart internal reform until they are forced to depart from the international stage. Until the American empire is destroyed there will be no socialism in America.

Succdems seem to be the only major group in the US actively trying to improve the living conditions of the working class, so I'm down.
Kevin Long
Are you allergic to a revolutionary Marxist theorist being mentioned? Tough fucking shit.
Jacob Perry
Let a genuine black socialism reemerge and watch him collaborate with the feds to kill them in their sleep.
Xavier Sanders
no.
Nolan Mitchell
That poster makes me support the guy lol
Carter Davis

Cuck
Luke Gutierrez
he is factually correct
Tyler Howard
I'm a succdem only because that's where the Overton window ends in english North America. I'd be supporting my local communists if they weren't incompetent larpers.
It's all performance for the normies
Henry James
it's a start, dude. don't be an idiot.

This happened in Virginia? How is Virginia more sane than New York?
Oh… Right. They don't have Wall Street.
Cameron White
u him?

Ben Garrison would be proud of those labels. Gotta clue people in on obscure figures like Joseph Stalin.

buddy the pentagon and the cia are both in the dc suburbs in northern Virginia

He's a fucking succdem the CIA fucking VOTED for him mere hours ago
I'll find you and rape my dick through your foramen magnum and stir your brains with my shaft you fucking worm

WHAT A CLASSY COMRADE
Michael Moore
you probably don't even have a proper dick to fuck my brains with SocDem faggot
Julian Nelson
Not to mention they already used an easily recognizable meme image. Is this what political cartoonists do on their spare time?
Tyler Peterson
I'm an insurrectionist you fucking bodybag shoetree
Zachary Williams
No I'm a fucking leaf Might consider running for something in the future. Maybe as a school board trustee
Luke King
Can we stop supporting the "conservatism" meme? They are reactionaries, not conservatives. Being a conservative would imply a desire to preserve the status quo and they are certainly not interested in doing that.
Mason Williams
Change requires destruction. The more change you want, the more destruction you need.

You guys seriously gotta be less hostile to SocDems.
Like, if I were an FBI plant trying to undermine the Left in America, I'd just bitch about SuccDems all day erry day. Lol who cares about winning and pulling the country left? If they aren't going full Maoist or Posadist or whatever right the fuck now then they can kiss my ass
Jordan Sanchez
proof MLM is the future
Kevin Robinson
Burgers only understand politics through electoral politics. You can pursue reform without being a reformist. Socialism will stop being a dirty word. The American left is at its weakest and smallest in history and we can still gain popularity, power, and, most important of all, trust. Even the Bolsheviks entered politics before today's centennial event.
Today is objectively a good day for us, I don't give a shit how comparably bad the Succs are.
Luis Bennett
We will treat SocDems the same way they treated Rosa.
Asher Wright
Rude, I'm nice to MLs
Xavier Reyes
Exactly. Today 🍔burger🍔s kicked the overton window a bit to the left. It'll take years of constant ground and media campaigning to normalize socialism in mainstream discourse
I like how they have to label each face, like a Ben Garison cartoon
Robert Murphy
If he knows that song, then he's fine by me
Ayden Sanchez
I like how friendly he looks. Is that really supposed to scare people?
Juan Bennett
the socialism in large font was supposed to do that.
Tyler Stewart
I think Mao and Stalin were supposed to do that. But the goofy smile adds a touch of "I'm coming for that toothbrush whitey" look as well.
Bentley Carter
Everyone ITT rosa/bordiga-posting over him being a succdem (he isn't, he's genuinely expressed anti-capitalism), and wringing hands about electoralism when the real takeaway is the diminishing hold of the Democratic party. They told him to fuck off and cut him off from funding, and even threw a fucking tantrum over him supporting relatively mild positions like medicare for all, and he STILL won.
Let this be a lesson to use on all your normie 🍔burger🍔 friends. All the DNC's funds and structures and connections are fucking useless, and at most the only useful thing is just having that D by your name for all he braindead libs who pull the lever for anyone if they see that letter. The Democrats are weak and you don't need their approval or permission to participate in politics.
Angel Rivera
The average American might know Stalin and maybe Marx.
Mason Adams
HOWLING
David Sanchez
I mean the fucking AFL-CIO sings that shit on a regular basis so it's ultimately meaningless
Thomas Fisher
Until I was 10, I thought "Marx" was just the name of that one villain from Kirby, and was kinda confused how people were getting political theory from him. I just figured "Marxism" was bad because the character Marx is a real dick.
Angel Robinson
Stop supporting the Democratic Cops of America.
Gabriel James
I didn't know what "communism" was until my conservative friend kept on talking about it when was 12-14 (don't remember exact age)
Kayden Hill
They aren't?
