The United States is facing a historic homelessness crisis, with figures reaching alarming heights. A recent report from Harvard’s Joint Center for Housing Studies reveals that in January of last year, approximately 653,000 Americans reported being homeless in 2023. This figure represents a 12% increase from the previous year, marking the largest single-year surge ever recorded.

Talking about centralization of power with the government shows profound misunderstanding of the underlying problem which is who controls the government and which class interests the government represents. Centralization of the government has absolutely nothing to do with that. What you’re describing is literally the way current US system functions.

Anarchists keep rejecting practical and tangible improvements to everyone’s lives while chasing dreams they have no means of realizing.
What are the states you are referring to? North Korea? Cuba?
The improvements you are talking about usually just make things worse.

I dont get it, are you wanting to have a country like the ones listed? I would argue that all of those countries are not desireable to live in.
Yes, I do want to have a country like the ones listed because it would be a vast improvement for majority of the people. If you had any empathy for others you’d want to live in a socialist country too.

Once they’re free from being choked by the deplorable US empire, absolutely. I grew up in USSR, and I had a great life there until communism was abandoned and I lived through some of the most horrific years under transition to capitalism. The problems Cuba and DPRK have are entirely caused by US trying to destroy them. If you want to see what socialism looks like in a country that US can’t fuck with then look no further than China.
The fact that you pick on Cuba and DPRK as a form of argument against socialism shows that you’re a deeply unserious person.
