If free buses are "socialist" then so are...
THE FREE ROADS YOU DRIVE ON EVERY DAY.
Maybe neither of these are actually socialist concepts?
Maybe there's no difference between fare-free transit and not charging your Visa every time you pull out of your driveway?

It's not mine personally, I'm just saying it exists.

MAGA is a textbook fascist movement.
MAGA's demand that we not call them fascist is an inherently fascist demand.
Calling them fascist is constitutional and does not wish harm on anyone. It means we disagree politically.
This is about the freedom to disagree. #copolitics

Well, it happened. More followers here than the hellsite.

Once again Colorado is all that stands against Donald Trump's relentless assault on our democracy. Tina Peters committed felonies because Donald Trump couldn't accept his defeat. They are both guilty.

I think about how many people on the left used to look up to this execrable piece of human debris and it makes me very ashamed for the whole movement.

In America, we have an idealized recollection of the Tiananmen Square protests.
In reality, Tiananmen Square ended in a bloodbath, a nationwide crackdown, and restrictions on free speech that persist to this day.
