Probably wiser
I read a story once that put me off ever going
Haven't been tempted since@spytfyre @danwentzel Had a friend go there once. Broke an arm. Don’t do that.

@danwentzel are you trying to recruit people by blaming them for not being hateful enough for you?
@InspiredByMeAgain @danwentzel
no
Dan isn't recruiting for MAGA
so Dan is not hateful
do you think your obvious weak trolling works on people who can think?
you might try twitter instead. plenty of MAGA braindead zombies there who would lap up your weak incoherent shit

@spytfyre @danwentzel Also had a friend fall off a cliff on a walking holiday there. Getting the body back was a nightmare for the family. Some hospital tried charging his wife for stuff he obviously didn’t need. You know, he’s dead.

@danwentzel If leftist in your country would wanted a universal healthcare it would happened way before Obama drop is imperfect (but still better than nothing) obamacare. US Democrat party is a capitalist party who cosplay at socialist one.
yes but as el-sayed and mamdani demonstrate, we can take it over
it's the only way forward we have, because of our shitty FPTP voting system

We don’t really have a “far-left” in this country as compared to the rest of the world.
But, if the choice for you between prison camps without due process for hated minorities and universal access to healthcare in the USA is a difficult one, then you already side with the far-right in your moral bankruptcy.
its (centrism) a trap!

on the other hand, the official platform of the DSA calls for the abolition of police and prisons
I would bet that a large maj of Americans consider that far left
and Mamdani has been a member, or may still be one
@failedLyndonLaRouchite @danwentzel you mean this position: https://program.dsausa.org/#demand-end-mass-incarceration
> Demilitarize police departments, disempower police unions, and redirect funding to public services as steps towards fully abolishing the police and prison system which protects the rich and jails the poor. Treat drug addiction and mental illness as health issues, not crimes. End qualified immunity and empower civilian oversight bodies with real authority over the police.
Which admittedly does say "abolishing police and prison", but there is also an entire sentence surrounding those 4 words.

@danwentzel There are a very few committed communists and anarchists in the US. I had one tell me that North Korea is a good place. But to say that’s equivalent to the neo Nazis is absurd

Centrists in the USA are right wingers, socialism is the centrist position. The people claiming to be centrists are simply afraid of change even if that change would be positive.

@danwentzel Democrats have always been progressive, but we’ve been intelligent enough to know worthwhile progress does not happen overnight.

"But to say that’s equivalent to the neo Nazis is absurd"
Dan didn't say anything remotely like that
