    The legacy media will keep repeating headlines like this to fearmonger socialism. Just like when Bernie was winning in 2019 and CNN start comparing him to Fidel Castro. Once socialism gains popularity they’ll just say communism next and so on and so forth. It’s time to ditch these legacy news sources

      Yeah, they don’t like to explain important things in the blurbs, like why: because they think socialism means facism, which isn’t anywhere near accurate.

    I really wish there was a form of political aptitude tests that didn’t have all the problems voting tests inevitably have. The ones most against socialism are generally the ones that understand it the least.

      They ones most against it are the ones that own the propeganda machines… They know exactly what socialism is, and they budget a percent of their revenue annually, and especially during election times, to systematically undermine the pleebs ability to make informed decisions about their future… Their reasons for doing this are obvious, they are criminals, and they should be in jail, or some cemetaries burial logbook.

        Lemmygrad is a good example of ML Socialism as apposed to Democratic Socialism.

        Nobody in the DSA is defending N-Korea or denial of the Uyghur genocide, but voice enough extremists here and you can be misled it to thinking so.
