Is that where they think the revolution will start? In blue cities? I don't think they can even hold power there for any length of time, as the more of the well-off of the citizenry (whose dollars are needed to support the regime) are free to move out. New York's experiment with socialism is already a failure. And that women in Seattle is crazier than a shithouse rat.

So how do the Democratic Socialists of America and the Revolutionary Communists, et al, envision this going down? Do they think these cities are laboratories for socialism to succeed and spread? Are they going to metastasize to state houses in blue states, and eventually to red states? Can a socialist municipality survive and thrive on its own without nourishment from a broader state and national commitment to the cause? I don't see it.

Somebody tell me what the socialist revolution is going to look like in a place that has the greatest capitalist economy in the history of the world.

You will eventually bail them out when they go belly up.

The endgame is to let them cook. Let them do any and everything they want. When everyone with money and means gets the frick out of there, taking all their taxable income, then these cities will finally learn their lessons. And if they don't, then they'll be hellholes that can contain the misanthropes they so desire to keep.

If we ever had a civil war in this country I think siege warfare would make a return as all the democrats would be concentrated in the cities w/o access to food, water, or energy.

I really hope that never happens though.

Crash this system. Bankrupt cites and state. Drive the economy into depression and nationalize businesses. Make the population completely dependent on the government.

You’re assuming any of those morons is smart enough to have a plan.

Other than “we want free stuff” they don’t have a plan.

They would have to learn to eat rats and use waste for fuel.

Moderate democrats deciding to fix our immigration system and cleaning up our voter rolls. There’s still enough left of center dems that want to keep getting elected that need to work with republicans to get this done.
