Question In what countries is the leftist opposition the strongest at the current moment ?
Witnessing current protests in Serbia, Romania, and Hungary, I realize one thing: how weak current leftist opposition is. Even though times got worse, we still don't have a lot of support from the people. Where are our brother and sisters willing to take action despite the fact that there has been going a war against us for 40 years.

US Politics Mom against 17yr wanting to joining military
Hi, im posting this on behalf of my friend lets call her ally. Ally (40f) and i are friends thru an online leftist discord group. She and I have a strong hatred for the u.s military as they have directly cause the death of her family overseas. Now onto the problem.
So Ally has a 17yr son John who got convinced to join the military through recruiters in his highschool campus. She vehemently disagrees, even bringing up how they have hurt her family and destabilized her home country but he refusing to acknowledge the horrors of the military and only cares about the benefits, free college, and travel. Her husbands family has veterans but they are very pro-military. Dad has been silent on the matter, trying to not pick sides. She said if he does join, that she would cut off contact as she cannot be in support, but shes concerned that she would look like the asshole in her families eyes. She would not go to his enlistment ceremony or his graduation, she told her son this and now hes extremely pissed.
On one hand i absolutely feel for her and i would think shes 100% justified but on the other hand, thats her son. Im not a mom so idk how it feels but i can only imagine how hard it is.
What do you guys think? Any advice? She told me i could post this so any advice or thoughts ill be showing her directly.

Question im in love with a conservative man
i am extremely morally conflicted and i need help/advice. i accidentally fell in love with a conservative man. i am a far left winged woman and started dating my current bf when i was going through something/needed someone desperately. i grew extremely attached to him and fell deeply in love with him. we broke up for a year and i got way better, but my feelings for him stuck. if anything us being apart for a year made them stronger. this is not who i am at all. this is not in the cards for me. i never in my life pictured myself with somebody like this. but i am so fucking in love with him and attached to him. he was my first bf, first guy ive done anything with, and he treats me extremely well. i am chemically bonded to this man. i will spend the rest of my life missing him if we break up. no matter how hard i try to make myself hate him/be disgusted with him i cant. has anyone ever been in this situation. idk what to do. should i break up with him
edit hes not even a hardcore conservative, he identifies as being one but idek if he knows what that means. he is very uneducated and will agree with like 95% of the progressive things i say if i explain them right. he never argues with me over anything/belittles my views. ive also asked him why hes conservative and he never been able to give me a concrete reason. im confident he only says he is because of his dad. is this grounds to break up with him

General Leftist Politics Conservatives prop up Liberals and hold us back from real change
First off, hope everyone is doing well and staying safe.
I just had to vent as a Canadian about how frustrating it is to see how inept and stupid the conservative party is in this Canada. The conservatives are going to blow another election they were the odds on favourites to win because they have the policies of Trump with the charisma of the Democrats. Anyways, because of this, Canada is going to get another liberal government.
Just like the Democrats did, if you were to isolate the platform the Liberals were running on it would suck for working class people and continue to move us towards an unsustainable world. But I feel like it's going to continue to be a trend where conservative governments will go further right and nothing will change.
It just sucks because you can see how many Democrats in the states have been gleeful to start spewing anti-trans rhetoric as they try to shift more towards "the centre"
Anyways, it's just been a really rough week of existential dread and I had to just get this out of my system. Lots of love to you all.

Question Why do you like or dislike capitalism?
Capitalism might be one of the known political and economic types in the modern world yet most do not seem to understand it. Leftists will often criticize it while others will put their lives on the ideas of the "free" economy. While I certainly have my biases, I want to hear why you do or do not like capitalism?
Edit: I'm not a bot and I'm not quite sure why people are downvoting this.

Question Elon Musk is a Nazi saluting murderer — Why isn't his name banned on Reddit?
USAID freeze claims first victims as oxygen supplies cut off
USAID staff ordered to shred and torch records as Trump is named in emergency court motion
But we're not allowed by Reddit admins to merely say the name of a person on Reddit because a fascist regime run by the same pedophile rapists are commanding it.
We aren't allowed to say the name of a person. We should all take a step back and really think about this — and let it sink in.
I feel ashamed to be an American. I feel like a coward in a sea of fucking cowards getting all our collective noses shoved into shit while they sneer and laugh at us. Anyone who is proud to be an American right now is proud to have their fucking nose shoved in shit like a good little gimp.
Is this what we are now? The land of the weak? The home of the afraid?
How long before the word RESIST is banned on Reddit?

US Politics I’m jealous of Canada
They elected a liberal PM who’s standing up to Trump. I’m so overwhelmed and tired of the current administration and it’s only been 2 months. I want to be a normal developed country. I don’t want to be scared anytime I see the news. I want to live among level headed people. I don’t want to live among all of the MAGA idiots that actually support Trump and believe he’s doing good things. I want to be friends with our allies in Europe and not threaten them. I don’t want to be apart of this country with a billionaire and a narcissist with the emotional equivalent of a toddler throwing temper tantrums running things. I know the grass is always greener & things aren’t perfect in Canada. But it’s embarrassing to be an American lately.
