This #coronavirus #pandemic has laid bare the exclusion of whole subsets of the most vulnerable in our society, exemplifying the toxic mix of #racism, #sexism, #imperialism, and #capitalism that the US blends so well.

1. I admit I don't follow emojis and memes so I had to look up what a red rose emoji 🌹 in a profile meant. I found it means the account identifies as a #DemocraticSocialist. What I've found in a day with Sanders trolls and a few apparent actual supporters is they don't seem to
2. know what #DemocraticSocialism ideology is.
"Democratic socialism is a political philosophy supporting political democracy within a socially owned economy,[1][2][3] with a particular emphasis on workers' self-management and democratic control of economic institutions[4]

3. within a market socialist economy or some form of a decentralized planned socialist economy."

Let me tell you what is absolutely apparent to me right now in this election cycle:
1. The #MMT community has a helluva lot of work to do because economic illiteracy is going to kill us all while we wait for light bulb moments for far too many so called Progressives

2. The #UBI vs #FJG fight was never understood, the impacts poorly circulated. Alternative media failed to bother to learn, presuming to know shit they were out of their depth to speak to. The MSM and establishment greedily advanced neoliberal policies and the masses are asleep
3. The word "socialism" is still weaponizable and is being trotted out by establishment @TheDemocrats to some effect. They are redbaiting & propagandizing all manner of evil and far too many will attempt to unify a neoliberal message which means we all die from #ClimateEmergency

French Revolution Nat. Assembly seating was origins of political Left & Right spectrum designations.
Left wanted reform, new constitution w/ Declaration of Rights of Man & of Citizen
Right wanted to continue Ancien Régime - monarchy & feudal nobility

Examples:
1. Men are born and remain free and equal in rights.
2. These rights are liberty, property, safety and resistance against oppression.
5. The law has the right to forbid only actions harmful to society...

Along with #BoycottABC, I think we should combat the right wing hate fuelled propaganda socialism scare campaign ad they aired.
Clearly, with ads like this, America is in desperate need of education on #DemocraticSocialism.

Instead of promoting the horrible ad I hate, I’m going to promote what I love... democratic socialism.

Every time an ad like that airs, it is our job to use social media for free advertising to dispel the propaganda machine.

"...curious twist,
the application said the required legal notice disclosing the name change would be published in the weekly Boston Phoenix,
and not in a New York City newspaper.
In contrast, the legal notice of the 1983 name change was published in the New York Law Journal."
