Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.
Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

I love this. That's good messaging
Since we don't have any good options on the table yet, is Macklemore eligible to be president?
If I'm reading his Wikipedia article correctly and remembering presidential requirements correctly he actually is.
Born in the US and 35+, so he's good
Maybe I should go for president. I was born in the US and over 35. What would my chances be as someone with zero political experience and a mechanical engineering background? Enough votes to need both hands to count them?
I'd vote for you over any of the names being put forward right now, and I don't even know your positions
I think picking citizens at random would probably work out better than the outcomes we've been getting for my entire lifetime
Could be two hands, depends if you have some friends to vote for you
They should add and under 50.
Lol. I think only two pres were ever under 50 in office.
Nine apparently.
