Replace capitalism is misleading tbh
Don’t get me wrong I want them to win. I’d rather have them over Republicans or establishment Dems but these guys don’t want to get rid of capitalism they just want to regulate it and build a stronger welfare state on top.
Why do Republicans insist on making DSA sound so fucking cool?
I came into the comments to see if this was satire. That’s a fucking great ad for DSA.
“The children these days are still afraid of the communism, yeah? Just paint them as commies, that’ll solve 'em.”
The majority of people are afraid of things they are told to be afraid of. Education dispels the fear. That’s why the GOP loves the poorly educated.
Saw an attack ad against Abdul here in MI yesterday, that honestly made me want to vote even more for him by pointing out how ‘dangerous’ he is to establishment.
lol there’s been a couple of great interviews with the leaders of the DSA attempting to explain their policies
“oh no we don’t mean that we mean, err something, err, whatever i can make up right now”
at least try to make the policies on your website make some sense so your people don’t look like clowns when asked about them
I think DSA spokespersons candidates like Mamdani have actually done a wonderful job at explaining their policies, idk what you’re on about.
ah yes let’s just look at that record of socialist wins when they’re not masquerading as regular dems
oh is a big fat zero
that’s the real threat of a good time we’re looking forward to
Don’t threaten me with a good time.
Even for people that think that they are against democratic socialism, there’s no way they read this and think that’s a bad thing. This reads like something that’s used to promote DSA rather than fear monger. It’s out of character for Republicans to slander something so softly without any sort of hate rhetoric or other blasphemy.
Really, who can read this and say, yea, I want the power to stay with the wealthy and not be with the people other than wealthy people? I would have guessed this were satire if I just saw it in passing.
Maybe they’re actually trying to boost it because they think it will create a civil war among democrats? The same way dems boosted Trump over previous conservatives.
Oh man, I hope they do the hell out of this.
Feel free to listen to their Fox News attacks on AOC. Their audience has been trained to automatically hate her and anything she does, so they can present her platform straightforwardly and without fear of losing their audience.
Hassan Piker is another guy that often gets criti-praised.
Tineye only reveals a couple of hits on imagur. This isn’t an official image coming from the Republican party, but a mock-up done privately.
Anyone thinking this is real (“dOnt TheaTeN mE wiTh a gOOd tIMe”, “They’re trying to scaremonger”) is a fucking moron. Republicans are evil and often stupid, but not stupid enough to word an ad like that. They’re well aware that “corporations and wealthy owners” has a negative connotation and “workers and the public” has a positive one. Please be more skeptical.
Yeah it’s highly satirical, but I don’t doubt some of MAGA will think it legit. How they react though…
You heard Mike Johnson campaigning for the DSA in front of the whole country, right? Using scary Boogeyman language to describe perfectly reasonable and honorable things?
No, I didn’t hear that. Did he try to spin it in his favor with his word choice? Because that would be the opposite of what this post is doing.
No, he literally spelled out their platform, eXcEpT HE juSt pREtenDeD iT sOUnDEd sPpPpooOoOooOOky!
“…replace capitalism with democratic socialism…”
Don’t threaten me with a good time.
Well, here’s my take: I don’t know for 100% sure exactly what the US looks like if all the DSA goals are met. But I know what it looks like now, and I know that at least MOST of what they’re proposing sounds pretty damned useful.
If DSA can win, I suspect some of the more fringe stuff might not make it as-is. But the things most people actually support - wealth equality, social safety nets, universal healthcare, livable wages and mayve even universal income… we can agree on enough basics that I feel confident we can work out the rest.
I know a lot of conservatives because I work at a national company and have to deal with these cucks. But this message would absolutely align with them and make them pro Democratic socialists.
They aren’t friends with billionaires. They’re complaining about gas prices and food prices like all of us. They are sick of our taxes going to war.
Yes
Yes! Yes! A million times yes!
Yes, but message is too stuffy. Just say,
“Billionaires, who are predators, stole the world. They made life terrible for everyone without a private jet and now we want to take it back for all of you, because we are also you.”
If this is real, then its the best advertisement the DSA could have
The DSA dosent even know what it wants? They’re literally campaigning and endorse capitalist who owns rental rental properties, but won’t endorse actual socialist.
Yes. This is what I want.
You threatening me with a good time?
