            Who benefits from the government buying 50% overvalued shares? And when these companies inevitably fail, why should half the cost be soialized?

              It’s not buying it, it’s seizing it. That’s means taking by force, you don’t pay for that. Try reading.

                  It wouldn’t even happen under the current government. Republicans and liberals are too afraid of what they call government overreach.

                  Bernie isn’t a capitalist, I think y’all are wayyyy overthinking this one lol

          Taking back half of their stolen profits seems like a step in the good direction though. Let’s seize their assets, starting with the half here, and then close them down.

              He wants to take over 50% of the companies without paying them. If that’s not seizing then I don’t know what is.

              Edit: If the downvoters want to tell me where I’m wrong, I’d be glad to be corrected.

      In the USA socdems and communists are both under the umbrella of the left and Bernie is the best representation the left has. Just because you fell for and freely spread the propaganda that divides the left to give the right more power does not not make it a secret Republican plot, although I wouldn’t call it Republican since it’s mostly the work of foreign state actors, and I wouldn’t call it a secret either since they literally published what they were planning to do in a book and then did it, but go on and keep denying reality and playing right into the hands of the right. You’re really helping communism by driving that wedge even further!

        anyone who isn’t fundamentally anti-capitalist and anti-imperialist does not represent the left in any way, shape, or form

        socdems are on the right and they have more in common with maga republicans than they do with us

        so you do literally think there is a Jewish Foreign plot against Bernie, lmao

        Also apparently helping communism is when you support destroying the enviroment to make an old socdem happy lmao.

            Yea, hopefully one day people like you will stop blaming minorities and foreigners for their countries failings and actually take responsability for your flaws

        Ngl fam I don’t even consider Bernie a leftist. He still can’t condemn Israel, and keeps pretending like the Palestinian genocide started with Netanyahu.
