He doesn't want civilians to get killed, so he supports Hamas. Didn't Israel government finance Hamas just so they can justify the genocide.

I think think it is so that the rest of us have more bravery in our protest against these terrible war crimes and stop them at any cost.

It will be all for nothing if the people don't unite in demanding that US stops supporting genocide and if they have to, go to the streets and stop this war crime by force.

I think it is done to pressure the regular people to overthrow the government. Showing how important the issue is and how much he sacrificed himself just to motivate people, that everybody else can sacrifice far less by risking arrest overthrowing the government.

Can't have competition of a free market if some are born poor and some are born super rich.

they are rich because they own property other people depend own

Whenever I see democrats fearmongering that Trump will win, I always think of the fact that Hilary's campaign was the ones that got him elected in the primaries, just so they can do this.

UBI is very efficient. Efficient for the working class, not so much for the capitalists.

And should be given welfare check.

With medical insurance the money goes to paying the hospital bill. We need insurance to cover the costs. What do I get with a gun insurance? Cost for what? Free guns? If I get nothing in return, I should pay nothing.

If company can't pay it's workers a living wage, that company shouldn't exist.

Isn't California full of homeless people?

Sure, it is my fault that even though there is enough food and most of the farming is automated, I still need to work for it because I don't own the land. We shouldn't ask them to fix it for us, they never will. We need to take control of the land that feeds us.

Teachers are very educated and yet have very low wages. The problem is not that workers are not skilled enough, it is that system isn't giving them their fair share. All the profit goes to the rich, while poor are getting poorer.

Sure they do. Keep believing, any day now...

Videos from this channel, "What is politics?" exactly explain that those governments that are calling themselves left, where right wing rich politicians pretending to be left wing. And leftist at the time, called them out on it multiple times. But it just ended with them in jail. Every dictatorship is right wing by definition. Having an excuse that you will be a nice king, doesn't make a you a leftist. The excuse of those regimes was that they will only be there for a while, after which they will disolve the state completely. That autoritarianism is just temporary. Of course, that day never came and instead they focused on propaganda that redifined what being left is, which is very common in history.

Maybe people with bad credit scores? If everyone can afford it, why make it into a bill? Is it just marketing for politicains so they can just pretend they are doing something about it, or are they actively discriminating from the poor.

Didn't democrats vote in executive power for president during Obama administration so the president can act on their own? Kinda funny how democrats complain republicans are authoritarian, when they give presidents power of kings.

All presidents used executive power for lesser reasons. These are just PR games for naive voters.

It is only definition that makes sense. There is a good video about it. If you shift power back to the people that are a working class, or in other words, if it promotes equality in decision-making power, than it is a left-wing policy. If it is a law that gives more power to the ruling/capitalist/rich class, it is a right-wing policy.

But that is the point, one group can own them legally, while others can't. Black Panters didn't go a out of their way to break the law. If they can do it legally, they would. They didn't want to give cops any reasons to arrest them. A lot of working class movements are perfectly legal, it is the ruling class that tries to think of excuses to either discredit them or simply arrest them or kill them. in the end it is the state that stopped Black Panters and frame them as some violent group. Their focus was on education., community run daycares and etc. They were attacked by white nationalists so they would legally arm themselves and patrol their areas. This was the only time that NRA supported gun control and Mulford Act was passed. It was never about right to have guns, no one really believes that. It is about the right for the powerful to have weapons to protect from the working class, and not the other way around.
