(32,381 posts)Then after a few years here I discovered that the self-described moderates here were pro more corporate control of the commons, like public education.
The moderates were also the most vocal about kicking the can down the road with regard to equality and human right.
The moderates advocated more military intervention.
The moderates screamed that abortions shouldn't come out of their own budgets, during the Stupak discussions.
The moderates told me I was lazy for not growing my own food in my apartment when I spoke up about the pain of rising food prices.
Fuck that, I said.
I'm a Communist because I think the positions taken above are terrible. Moderates want to keep capitalism? Well, polls show that more people are supporting socialism every year, so good luck with that.
