General Beliefs
Economy
I am a democratic socialist.
I support a
socialist economy with
worker-self management and
workers cooperatives. I also support
universal healthcare and
land reform. I believe in the dismantling of
monopolies, and for economic regulation.
Social Issues
LGBTQ issues
I support Same-sex marriage. This is a belief that all
socialists should have, and agree on, since equality is a core tenant of socialism. It's "Stand up, all victims of oppression" not "Stand up, some victims of oppression". Conservative "socialism" is a oxymoron, as opposing rights for LGBTQ people is a position that is supported by
reactionaries. Also, conservative figures like Trump have stated their opposition to socialism and communism, which makes it more of a oxymoron.
Trans Rights
Trans rights are valid! Explanation is same as above, plus:
Transphobia harms cis people (like me) too, as there have been cases when cis people have been harmed by transphobes who assumed that they were trans.
Abortion
Abortion is healthcare and a human right. People who oppose abortion just want aren't "pro-life" they are just anti-women. For example, if the baby was a immigrant, would "pro-life" Republicans want to spare it from being separated from its family, or possibly being killed in a hate crime? No! What if the baby was black, and was unjustly killed by police? Would "Pro-Life" people care? No, as they would try to justify the actions of the police officer. Also, its ironic that many "pro-life" people support Israel, who is killing Palestinian children in its genocide.
Immigration
I am a supporter of immigration. Immigrants are not criminals; They just want a new home. The
recent surge in anti-immigrant rhetoric is unreasonable and racist. Even if a migrant commits a crime, it would be bad to punish all immigrants as a result of that. Also, America was built by immigrants.
I support replacing police with community volunteers, as the current police system is oppressive and authoritarian.
I support gun rights, but not the Republican kind of gun rights. For example, minorites that are often targeted by hate crimes (LGBTQ people, migrants etc) should be able to defend themselves. However, I support restrictions being put in place so that far-right extremists dont have access to guns. The far-right commits mass shootings more than the "far-left".
Foreign views/Stances on foreign conflicts and governments
I support Ukraine. This is because I am opposed to
Imperialism in
all of it's forms.
Russia has committed war crimes and atrocities against Ukrainian civilians, such as the Bucha and Izium massacres and other strikes that have killed dozens of civilians. Russia is committing a genocide.
- Stance on the Ukrainian government
I believe that the Ukrainian government has some issues. First, I don't like how the Ukrainian government collaborates with organizations such as the Azov Battalion and
the Russian Volunteer Corps. The Ukrainian government should launch a investigation into these organizations. Also, I don't like how
Zelensky basically revoked the right to strike.
I support Palestine. This is because of the fact that Israel has been illegally occupying Palestinian territories in areas such as the West Bank, and due to the fact that Israel is literally a
apartheid state that has killed over 40,000 Palestinian civilians in this genocide.
Iran
I oppose the current Iranian government. I don't like how it is oppressive towards its citizens, and how it treats
women and other opposition activists. Iran is basically a
capitalist dictatorship, and
"leftists" who support it are dumb, since the government of Iran has executed left-wing activists. However, I oppose the parts of the opposition who want to return to the
Pahavi era, as that's also dumb.

American Politics
I am neither a Democrat nor a
Republican. Both parties have their issues, with the Republican parties issues being more straightforward. However, the Democratic party has almost the same amount of issues.
Criticism of the Democratic Party
Campaigning/Electability
The Democratic party has many issues and problems, one of those issues is its strategies and political campaigning. Basically, I believe that the DNC should replace Biden with another, younger, and more progressive candidate. Biden is 81, and there's the possibility that he could die during his next term. In fact, they should do the same with a lot of their older Congress candidates. A problem with the Democrats is that they don't actually try to actually win your vote, they just tell you to vote for geriatric who will repress the working class #1 or you will get geriatric who will repress the working class #2. Try harder Democrats.
Progressivism
The Democratic party has hailed itself as being progressive and
left-wing for most of the recent years. However, the majority of the Democratic party has basically casted out actually progressive candidates such as
Rashida Tlaib and
Jamaal Bowman over their support for
Palestine. One may argue that the Democrats shutting up the left-wing parts of their party is to attract moderate conservative voters, but conservatives still won't vote for Democrats no matter how pro-Israel they get. Clintonist, interventionist, VBNMW politics have controlled the Democratic party for years, and its time to get rid of it and replace it with actual progressives that are willing to actually fight for abortion and LGBTQ rights instead of just using them to exploit minorites for votes. The reason why I say this is because, for example, Biden could've codified Roe, but didn't. Biden could stop Republican efforts to discrimate against migrants, but instead of stopping it, he enacted the polices they wanted. In conclusion, the Democrats need to be more progressive, but for now, electoral politics are useless.
