I suppose it is some what opinion?  I grew up in the US.  Moved a few years to Europe and came back to US. Ir changed my political beliefs a good chunk.

I don't think the majority (if any) of European countries would consider themselves to be socialistic and most of their economies are still based on capitalism but with generous public safety nets, would you consider the UK to be socialistic because it has the NHS? It definitely isn't. Most countries in Europe are capitalist still but with strong welfare systems in place but welfare systems aren't inherently anti-capitalism.

"Europe" is a bit of a broad term too, France is not the same as Greece, Greece isn't the same as UK, UK isn't the same as Poland, etc.

I wouldn't mind living in America, depending on the state, but as someone who was born with a disability, spent most their childhood in hospital and only have a good quality of life now because the NHS forked out time, effort and money to help me, I both feel proud that we have something like the NHS and I'm happy to contribute to it but I would also feel fear living in America, I still require yearly x-rays and consultations and God forbid what I have progresses again, it's just too much stress to worry about medical bills, insurance, etc. That I don't need to worry about in UK.

Also, I wouldn't feel comfortable around anyone holding a gun, even a friend, I find it odd how obsessed with guns a lot of Americans are, not to mention poorly trained, treating something so deadly like a toy is too often an occurrence. I also hate how some states are obsessively going after women's rights and abortions and LGBTQ+ people (though UK isn't that much better in regards to trans people).

Some of those are state issues but if I'm being honest I would likely avoid all red states which cuts my destinations down, Lol.

I fall into the Veroufakis mode of thought. My opinion is that capitalism has transitioned into something else. And while there are still some capitalistic elements of the economy, it’s no longer the driving force. One of the cornerstones of capitalism is competition, but we’re not really even getting that anymore, we’re seeing big corporations that are feeding everything into ecosystems. We still call it capitalism, because many of the institutions remain (even in altered form); but I wouldn’t be surprised if it received a new name down the road - although I don’t think “techno-feudalism” is going to take off. Corporatism is a more likely term if we can divorce the fossilized concept from fascism.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

The self entitled guy whose picture is down a little below for definition of "grandiose narcissist" just got found guilty on all charges. Go to prison!



Under crime we should put 

  • Biden - Not a Convicted Felon.
  • Trump - Convicted Felon.

Biden- Don't say anything and might win election
Trump- Says something and people will equally believe and not believe

I think it's crazy that people don't acknowledge that Trump is only running for President to escape criminal accountability. He clearly isn't doing it to help 'the country'. And it's obvious.

That’s strange that you think he is running to escape criminal accountability.

From an American perspective its almost unbelievable of how much bad and entitled behavior that voters will allow from trump. His poll numbers have been climbing until the guilty verdict came out. 



Glorious for Trump to literally be proven a legitimate criminal.. And people still support the self serving, self loathing, narcissist... Says alot about those people.
Will be interesting to see what happens with all the other crimes he has been accused of.

He's also running to fleece his flock and line his pockets with gold from their wallets. And if he wins, he can openly steal the money of his enemies as well, and there will be nothing they can do about it since 34 Senators will always be ready to protect him from accountability.
