The US has an on-going military occupation of Europe. In a sane world, the nature of this relationship would be obvious to everyone.
Also, your username doesn't go far enough. In the Global American Empire(or GAE), the people own the means of production under a dictatorship of a proletarianized elite.
Capitalism versuses communism is a false dichotomy.
Who own McDonalds? Raytheon? Google? Blackrock?
The bourgeoisie is propertied, local, attenuated, and independent. The proletariat is propertyless, national or even international, expansive, and dependent. The bourgeoisie's power was fundamentally rooted in ownership and domination of physical space, while the proletariat is subject to whims and approval of the indivual or organizations that employ them.
The bourgeoisie no longer exists. Even physical real estate that is nominally owned requires yearly payments and government approval to develop, which is more akin to a lease. The modern managerial class, to which founders/CEOs belong, is a proletarianized elite. Larry Fink and his ilk are no less subject to this fact, as his power is derived from managerial control of assets that he fundamentally does not own; it is the collective property of the individual investors and organizations who have entrusted him with managing their capital, in other words the People.
At the start of the cold war, the post-war consensus across the first and second world was, ironically, national socialism. JFK's most famous utterance, "Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country," is practically indistinguishable from the American fascist Lawrence Dennis' "A nation is a nation by reason of what its citizens have done for it rather than what it has done for them."
For an indepth look at these topics, check out either James Burnham's The Machiavellians: Defenders of Freedom, which is a realist look at political systems and the inspiration for Emmanuel Goldstein's book within a book Theory And Practice of Oligarchic Collectivism in Orwell's 1984, or the more modern version Levithan And Its Enemies by Sam Francis, which continues the tradition of elite analysis through the fall of the Soviet Union. I personally prefer Sam Francis' book, although it was published posthumously and they didn't want to give it the good editing that it really needed without Francis' input.
He's a socialist because he understands the power dynamics at play? Because he calls out or describes the way things are? Please.
You realize he disapproves of what he describes and is calling for change, right? The way it's looking, you're calling him a socialist because he disagrees with you about the nature of the horrid state of affairs, or worse because he understands socialism at all.
Wait... If understanding socialism makes you a socialist-- aren't you one too? GASP
You and your socialist friend can go and eat the shit off your dicks after you fuck each other up the ass .
Monarchy is the ultimate expression of private ownership. There is no state, public coffer, or possibility of communal ownership.
Carefull ... because your alt just posted the definition of monarchy ... AND IT DEFINES the monarchy AS THE FUCKING STATE. So your alt might not want to fuck you tonight.
the problem with your kind of socialist is that you either know socialism is ACTUALLY TOXIC ... and you don't want to be associated with it ... but you want to implement it .
Institutions of power are an inescapable fact of any civilization.
I AGREE MORON .
THE PROBLEM IS HOW YOU GET THE POWER !
Is it by licking the ass of power or is it buy building it yourself ?
Is it by redistributing wealth , or is it by creating wealth ?
DO YOU WANT FREEDOM TO CREATE , OR DO YOU WANT TO TAKE WHAT OTHERS HAVE CREATED !
By assisting socialists with the dismantling of traditional institutions, a vacuum is left where the socialists can construct their own power center with inverted values that are foundationally anti-human.
EAT SHIT . I don't know what is more anti human than supporting a monarchy .FUCKING STUPID SHIT ! A system that excludes all the other humans from the top , and sets the only way to power through licking the ass of the fucking filth at the top.
FUCK YOU !
And stop throwing your "authoritative" names around because I genuinely don't give a fuck about them.
If you can think logic ... i can read it ... if you keep appealing to authority ... i will tell you to eat the shit .... IT'S FUCKING SIMPLE !
Because Europe has been a US colony since 1945.
I don't know ... seems like the other way around to me !

The EU has an on-going military defense that THEY AIN'T PAYING FOR ! FUCKING SLIME !
Also you are a socialist that should EAT SHIT ! Europe is a SOCIALIST UNION ... and it's DRAGGING THE US into socialism MORE AND MORE !

That's not really what harassment is, but you are being mean. Maybe calm down a bit?
