As a leftist one of the most annoying things to be dismissed by is "if you don't like it, then just leave!" Yea i wouldn't be criticizing my country if i didn't want to say. Tl/dr i'm trying to make my country a better place for everyone because i love it

I get that, however, since you say you’re a leftist I’ll remind you: 1) This is the only nation in the world where you have a completely unrestricted right to free speech. 2) This is the only developed nation in the world aside from Mexico where your right to keep and bear arms is recognized and protected by Constitution. 3) The free and open market is responsible for the creation of more prosperity in the past 100 years than in all of previous human history combined.

Then don’t criticize. Some of us like the United States just the way it is

I do go outside. Real life isn’t anything like how the news and media over sensationalizes it. That’s why the world actually feels good to me right now.

If your “making the country better for everybody” runs afoul of any of those three things it’s time to reevaluate your positions or move to any one of the dozens of countries that already suits you better.

Nice deflection that has nothing to do with my point. If you don’t want to live in the United States but want to keep your right to keep and bear arms, your choices are Mexico or Guatemala. Move to Germany or something.

Well now you’re just commie posting because you’re triggered by the statement, which is true despite the excesses of capital. You can curb the excesses of capital without abolishing it, and even social democracies believe in privately owned capital and markets because they’re not fucking regarded.
