    If you want collectivism, do a rugged individualism and pull yourself up by the bootstraps

      Dem entryism isn’t collectivism either.

        The comment was tongue in cheek, not a retort.

        But I’m not sure why you think I’m a dem entryist

          Sorry, I just took it as a retort. I don’t think that now, I just thought my position was being dismissed as rugged individualism with red paint.

      That user:

      Popular programs will not be allowed by the establishment, that’s why we need a labor movement to compel concessions using strikes as leverage.

      You, apparently:

      This is rugged individualism.

      I’m seriously confused. It’s possible your comment was ironic and I’m misreading it.

        I think it’s an ironic restating of the position the previous person was presenting, but not necessarily contradictory
