Look, I just want you to know:

I think socialism is an awful system and will lead to untold suffering and pain. It is rationally an awful decision.

But I can also absolutely understand every single US-American living through this shit wanting radical change. I am aware I am writing this from a privileged Position from the Heart of Europe and my View would probably be different if I was living through the same shit as you.

I still think you should settle in the middle for social democracy, maybe something a bit more left of it, but I can understand if you get emotional and take radical decisions.

It is rationally an awful decision.

LOL, that must be why the more socialist nations are so terribly unhappy, like Finland, Sweden, and Norway.

I do not think your opinion is rational or based on facts.
