That sounds like we're quite aligned with our methodology actually. So why are you so standoffish?

This debate went way off the rails, but maybe tell me about how you think things should go. For example what would be a way for the US to transition to communism.

many anarchists are indistinguishable from centrists when it comes to actual geopolitical issues

simply gotta disagree. anarchists reject empire and authority. Centrists often support imperialism so long as it is favoring their own country. Anarchists typically oppose the imperialism of their own countries more than anything else.

I'm really trying to engage with people here and I've conceded multiple good points. I've learned some things and I'm seeing new perspectives.

Also why do you care so much about finding a way to call me a liberal it's obsessive :P

Can you explain how Whole Process People’s Democracy is “top-down?”

Can you explain to me how it's not?

Further, can you explain why it’s a good thing for Capitalists to control the press, and not the public?

No, because it's not. Nice strawman. Is this public you speak of the government?

Again apologies for skimming, you are writing a lot.

I would say the people here are being very patient with you

I agree

Russia is capitalist. It is only called an oligarchy because

You misunderstood me. I'm saying that the US is an oligarchy as well.

you are spreading xenophobic views out of ignorance and recycled imperialist think tank talking points while also being condescending

the first part is your opinion, and the second part is not true. I'm not being condescending, and I'm being equally patient replying to people who are just trolling

RT is, generally speaking, more reliable that the NYT

If you have to compare RT to the NYT, that says more than enough

So the Taiwanese all desperately want to join the DPRC? Last I checked Taiwan was a sovereign nation. Capitalism has a foothold there but the British no longer rule there. Justifying imperialism with imperialism also doesn't magically make it okay
