      I feel like they’re jealous inside haha

      I just don’t understand why they would care so much about what’s happening in a blue state far away from them. It’s like the very idea of someone else living a peaceful happy life sends them into a rage-fueled, spiteful wrath

      If those people knew anything about Communism and Islam they’d realize how utterly stupid that combo is…

        Tbf if you ever lived in North Iraq you would see how much left-leaning average religious Kurd is.

        If we stopped invading the region for oil and all it would stabilize and then progress over time.

        …what? All three Abrahamic religions are extremely explicit and clear about providing food and shelter to the poor and needy. What counterexample did you have in mind?

            I think it’s more the fact that communism in it’s real world manifestations is all about control, and they can’t have competing organized religion, unless they pervert into some state converted version.

            • “communism” IRL is more like vanguardist fascist dictatorships under leftist aesthetics.

              I lived in one of these “communist” countries, its actually just a state capitalist hell, practially zero social safety net, zero free busses, zero free childcare, zero free lunch, internal border control, a very “papers please” environment, just more government oppression.

              Reason why these failed is bexause of the lack of democracy, the vanguardism has failed it.

              Mamdani is not a “communist”, he is a Democratic Socialist, he believes in democracy. We have already seen success with “socialist” policies when they get implemented under a democratic system such as in Norway, for example.

                I commend you for having balanced views despite living under “communism”, and being unlike the cuban migrants that see anything slightly left of center and turn into the flashback cupcake dog.
