Libtard primaries are a big difference in the “blue wave” special elections of 2017 (most still went red ).

DNC/MSM Political Complex has out kicked their coverage.

Any person who advocates for socialism or communism must be physically removed™ from civil society.

Are there any modern day democrats running for office with ANY proposed polices that aren't socialist? Can someone direct me to one if there are and to the specific proposals that aren't?

In a country like Denmark or Austria. Yea it works.

But all of the takers still actually work in society to some degree.

No, it doesn't. No means of production are collectively controlled by workers. Government redistribution of goods and services =/= socialism. This is a good example of why words and definitions matter. Our redistributive scheme relies entirely on capitalistic production and price indices.

I agree. You are not a troll. You are straight up telling everybody that you support Stalinists.

By supporting them, you embrace what people like Stalin has done..... massacre millions of political opponents and imprisonment of voices that speak out.

There are many varieties of socialism and there is no single definition encapsulating all of them

Then it ceases to have meaning. A word or idea that has many definitions is no effective word at all.

Would Protopkin, Bukharin, Engels, or any of their ilk call the United States socialist? They certainly wouldn't. They would, perhaps, be happy about the redistribution of extracted wealth via taxation, but nothing about the United States, structurally speaking, resembles socialism.

No... there's just the one. Only it's unpalatable, so it get's watered down and changed into something different to make it more appealing and then you call THAT socialism.

So they are 10 times the size of the KKK.

Sounds like people should be alarmed then.
