    I think when somebody mentions destroying our health insurance system, they don’t mean literally dissolving all insurance companies right now and then taking a nap before starting to think about how to replace it.

      Whenever I suggest using political reform to solve the problem I get argued with and downvoted. I think maybe you’re just too new here to understand how bad the problem is with anarchists and tankies advocating we tear it down without a replacement.

        I mean it’s not like there’s an entire knowledge base of communist theory that has successfully been put into practice and even in some cases withstood the most brutal attacks and undermining by American capitalists, but let’s just call them all tankies and pretend that they are so incapable of critical thinking that they wouldn’t have a plan against the most obvious points of failure that you can think of in the most knee jerkiest of reactions, having exposed yourself to absolutely none of that theory whatsoever.

        The capitalists will not let you reform away their power. You bootlicking libs are so pathetic.

            There’s nothing mask off about it. All the theory is public domain, it’s right there for you to read. The fact that a thorough materialist analysis of capitalism is so scary to you is what’s mask off.
