Not terribly surprising, considering who runs it and why… “Faiz Shakir is an American Democratic political advisor. He serves as senior advisor to Bernie Sanders and executive director of the nonprofit media organization More Perfect Union.”

“In November 2021, More Perfect Union launched an explainer series called "The Class Room". It is "aimed at providing a left-wing answer to PragerU, a YouTube titan of right-wing ideology," the New York Times reported.”

It’s pretty easy to pick up on the PragerU vibes, so while I agree with most of what they say on that channel, I tend to take it with a grain of salt.

That said, do you think socialism is bad? I’m not so sure it is, but I’d be down to hear your thoughts 🙂

sorry for the confusion, I meant the people at the trump rally. Their complaints are veeeery close to socialist criticisms of capitalism. There's a bit of irony that they (we, Americans) have been so propagandized against it to hate it, while their grievances are very close to socialism.
