The ABC of " democratic socialism " is a CLASS analysis of human misery


   What do you think American capitalism can do  for " disproportionately poor " blacks and Latinos that it has not been able to do for poor " backward " whites ?

   Should poor whites gets condescending lectures on " political correctness " from affluent and phony Hillary neo-liberals ?

   You don't understand the ABC of " democratic socialism ": the class analysis of human misery.

So far Bernie Sanders is not pandering to racial or ethnic groups. " Identity politics "is vacuous and bankrupt.

   What will Hillary's bourgeois feminism do for working class women who will never get a view of any corporate " glass ceiling " ?

    If white persons are poor, we should suspect some character defect ?

I think the Black Muslim Malcolm X got it right in 1965 : " Show me a capitalist and I'll show you a blood sucker ".

   So long ago the black radical Malcolm X made a connection between capitalism and racism, between U.S. imperialism and the oppression of black people in America.

    Yes, I would call Malcolm X a budding socialist .
