Of course.
Fuck this country.
Never voting for a democrat or republican again. They're all scum.
Two party, lol please. The ruling class hasn't been divided in this country since JFK
There are some socialists elected to regional positions, like city councils, school boards, etc. The most prominent is probably Seattle councilwoman Kshama Sawant
Nope. Alternate power structures that can seize power during crises is how socialist revolution can come about. Much writing on this, here is a link I randomly googled:

unless youre actually voting for a third party, not voting for the shinier turd is still a worthless position that does not improve anything
By imposing sanctions on more and more Global South countries, the US is effectively embargoing itself.
Every year they have this vote. Every year is the same thing.
Death to America, death to the west, death to America's allies.
China is a force for good and Russia is the harm reduction candidate vs the US.
If Gaza hasn't shown you that Uyghur Genocide was a crackpot evangelical conspiracy theory cooked up in a Langley basement then nothing will
Ok so every neutral journalists, humanitarian comitees, independent experts and basically most Uyghur are in the conspiracy and the very nice Chinese government is clean because they never lie.
Hahaha you are a drone or a flatearther.
If you look into it, most of the indpendent experts are one right wing crank, Adrian Zenz, who is 100% funded by the UK State-Owned BBC and an American intelligence cutout organization called the NED. He's a far-right Christian Zionist who doesn't speak a word of Mandarin. You should be happy that there's no genocide in Xinjiang (even Zenz has never claimed this), mad that your tax dollars likely went to fund his bogus cause, and furious that those same tax dollars are also being used to conduct a real genocide in Gaza.
Wow wait ! I'm not American. And fuck the state of Israel. But as much as it may rather be a cultural genocide, it still sucks. And as I said, I can't trust a state that did what it did to Hong Kong, Taiwan and try to hide things to it's people (tiananmen for example) I have no faith in the words governments, wherever they stand and I don't believe in "nations".
I have no faith in the words governments
"Except the ones I agree with, those are telling the truth"
the replies to the post I linked are admittedly not very well sourced. there are better resources. why do you call me Winnie the Pooh?
EDIT: Here's a post with much better resources: https://hexbear.net/post/2361
China is not comitting a genocide. neither is Russia. Eqiuvocating the actions they are taking to the holocaust or even to Israel's actions against Palestinians is really fucked up.
If the US and Israel are completely aligned in foreign policy, what keeps Israel from just becoming treated as another state of the US?
Its ethnonationalist policies would violate Federal law pretty severely, and then the US is explicitly on the hook for Israel's war crimes, terrorism, assassinations, etc.
The US isn't on the hook for it's own war crimes, terrorism, or assassinations, so that wouldn't matter
Yes, "all's fair in love and war" means you can do anything you want if you can get away with it.
It feels very cool to buy hand soap or whatever at the grocery store and see the box is stamped 'made in Iran / DPRK / Vietnam' though
