DP Not very intelligent, are you? You do realize that not being a socialist doesn't qualify one as a Trumper, right?


NP. Not being a socialist doesn't make you a Trumper, but being SHOCKED that young people in an economically and racially diverse DC suburb align with DSA strongly suggests Trumpist sentiments.

The rest of us non-socialists just accept that the Democrats have a big tent, and some folks are going to be to the left of the mainstream platform.

OP does it bother you that your friends care about other people? Or are they hurting you in some way?

I'll remember that when you knock on my door asking to borrow a roll of toilet paper, or whatever else no amount of money can buy right now.

If being socialist means I wish this country were more like Norway, then yup, I'm socialist.

I'm 28 years old, lesbian, and I live in Silver Spring.

My roommate and her boyfriend met working on the Marc Elrich campaign. He is a Democratic Socialists of America member and got her to join, and she grew up Christian Conservative.

A bunch of people in my yoga class turned out to be Socialists.

Some other friends in my building were holding DSA meetings and joined them as well, before all this happened.

Now these same people are all ranting on Facebook about how the pandemic is all about income inequality.

Did I just end up in a weird circle or is everyone under 30 in DC, Silver Spring, Takoma Park and Bethesda enamored with AOC?


Troll thread. Everyone knows Facebook is only for the olds.

You should try it sometime. It's not a real "university," and doesn't pretend to be. That's just the name of the series. If you got out more and exposed yourself to new ideas, you might know that.

Oh, OP. I'm so sorry!

No, everyone is not, although Takoma Park, in particular, does appear to attract this brand of.... thinking (?)

Brush up on videos from Prager U and do what you can to educate these people, please!



Yes because listening to dumb old white guys is really working out for this country.


OK, try Will Witt. Or Candace Owens.

^^^ PP doesn’t understand what socialism actually is. Then makes jokes about other people not understanding socialism ^^^


Actually the history of fire departments in the US us really interesting. There used to be lots of different fire companies - especially in the big cities. They had a logo that would go on the brick outside your house. If your house caught fire and the wrong fire truck was nearby, you were out of luck. If you were too poor to pay for the fire companies you were also out of luck. It sounds a lot like privatized heath insurance today.
