    Capitalists do these things, yes. My point is that the Republican party is much more friendly to Capitalists and their policies and much more influenced by them.

      Why do you believe that? The Democrats are fully influenced by capitalists, just a different wing of the capitalist class. They have no binding responsibility to the working class, which is why they never protect us and barely give us crumbs. Capitalists control the commanding heights of the economy, and the state. Simple as that.

        I figured you would not agree. I’m probably not going to change your mind on this in a forum thread if you don’t see the same pattern that I do in the historical and recent examples. I do appreciate hearing your thoughts on this matter so clearly though.

          The same goes to you, I suppose. If you don’t see that the Democrats are just as bought and owned by different capitalists, then I’m not going to be able to convince you on Lemmy comments, most likely. Would require a combination of history and Marxist theory. Mind you, it’s mostly different capitalists, but capitalists all the same.
