As a person who was planning on starting a small business in an economically disadvantaged area for 3-5 years in the Mountain time zone which operates only on Tuesdays and Thursdays, I feel like the Kamala Harris campaign had some very good policies. But I can see how other people might disagree.

I think you just discovered the plot for The Fast and the Furious 10.

BRB, hiring a coyote to smuggle a cool Chinese EV over the border to avoid tariffs.

quantum mechanics literally revealed that the world is not loaded when you are not looking

I don’t know where you got that info, but that is not at all what quantum mechanics says. If you want a deep dive into what quantum mechanics actually says, here’s a good video series from PBS by a real physics professor that explains it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_wxG5KMAFik&list=PLsPUh22kYmNCGaVGuGfKfJl-6RdHiCjo1&index=1

I’m not even sure MLK ever explicitly considered himself a socialist.

Well then.

“I am much more socialistic in my economic theory than capitalistic.” - Martin Luther King Jr.

“Today, capitalism has out-lived its usefulness.” - Martin Luther King Jr.

“Call it democracy, or call it democratic socialism, but there must be a better distribution of wealth within this country.” - Martin Luther King Jr.

“We must see now that the evils of racism, economic exploitation and militarism are all tied together.” - Martin Luther King Jr.

“The evils of capitalism are as real as the evils of militarism and evils of racism.” - Martin Luther King Jr.

“If America does not use her vast resources of wealth to end poverty and make it possible for all of God’s children to have the basic necessities of life, she too will go to hell.” - Martin Luther King Jr.

It says a lot about the education system wherever you come from that you never learned MLK was a socialist. He HATED capitalism! Hated it! Also, the scientist Albert Einstein was a prominent socialist who wrote a famous article, “Why socialism?” explaining in detail why he was a socialist. Einstein and MLK believed in the same anti-capitalist struggle. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Why_Socialism%3F

IDK man. You’re basically saying “Why are you stuck on that environmentalist shit? It doesn’t matter to me. Go worry about climate change somewhere else, stop bothering me.”

My brother in christ. Climate change will affect you whether you want it to or not. Capitalism will affect you whether you want it to or not. You can’t just be “out” of it. You can’t not take a side in whether the earth gets destroyed or not (environmentalism) or whether 90% of the world’s population is plunged into neo-feudal slavery. You’re either with the slave-owners or against them. You gotta pick a side!

“Tankies are bad.”

Do you believe that that because you genuinely believe that capitalist nations like the United States and Russia are doing good things for the world, while “tankie” countries like Cuba and China are doing bad things for the world? Or do you believe that because you have been tricked by 100 years of racist propaganda that says socialists like Fidel Castro, Albert Einstein, and Martin Luther King were subhuman scum?
