Socialism

Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.


Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

It’s not that everything was rosy at the end of last year, far from it. But there were signs that millions and millions of people are tired of the ever-widening gap between rich and poor, that millions of people think the pendulum has swung too far toward oligarchy, and most importantly that people are willing to take action and organize and devote themselves to pushing that pendulum back. In other words, we’re catapulting ourselves into this New Year on a wave of class warfare. We enter 2025 with the working class finally fighting back in this war that the owning class has lop-sidedly waged relentlessly for decades against a near-dormant population. But now, slowly, the working class is waking up and learning to fight back – not just that, we’re coming to realize this is the fight of our lives.

And you have the military in the middle. Historically, they've been loyal to country sted president. This is the experiment we've not yet seen.
