"If there’s a single ideal that guides the materialist Left, it isn’t a moral ideal. It is an aspiration to strengthen our grasp of how the world works and how present dynamics limit our imaginations, to improve the position from which we make political choices." @enzoreds.bsky.social
Socialism is not Liberal Moralism on Steroids
Socialists don’t need to appeal to morality and justice. Unlike liberals and conservatives, they can point out how the world works, and how our political imagination is constrained as a result.
