I wonder how many of them would notice if the identifier “national socialist” were offered as an option?

What percentage of millennial democrats have a job?

Probably true.

Re-education camps are needed for them.

I’m always curious how these questions are phrased. I mean, a quarter of the Republican respondents also identified as socialists

They are young still. I am worried but once they get real jobs, it all changes. Reminds me of a quote of which is attributed to several people:
quote:
A definitive answer arose in the wonderful book “Nice Guys Finish Seventh: False Phrases, Spurious Sayings, and Familiar Misquotations” by Ralph Keyes, 1992.
He writes: “An orphan quote [unattributed quote in search of a home] sometimes attributed to Georges Clemenceau is:
Any man who is not a socialist at age 20 has no heart. Any man who is still a socialist at age 40 has no head.
The most likely reason is that Bennet Cerf once reported Clemenceau’s response to a visitor’s alarm about his son being a communist: "If he had not become a Communist at 22, I would have disowned him. If he is still a Communist at 30, I will do it then."
George Seldes later quoted Lloyd George as having said: A young man who isn’t a socialist hasn’t got a heart; an old man who is a socialist hasn’t got a head.
The earliest known version of this observation is attributed to mid-nineteenth century historian and statesman François Guizot:
Not to be a republican at 20 is proof of want of heart; to be one at 30 is proof of want of head.
Variations on this theme were later attributed to Disraeli, Shaw, Churchill, and Bertrand Russell. (I misquoted Churchill to this effect for years.)”

I was talking to a coworker the other day, and another coworker overheard me say "socialism", and she interrupted the conversation she didn't listen to aside from one word, just to say she likes socialism. I asked why, and her response was, "because I have student loans." Jfc. Didn't utter another word after she said that, and just walked away. We are more fricked than we realize.

Call them “all inclusive resorts” and charge money to get in.

It's crazy to me how you folks on here can't be bothered to look in a mirror. This entire board is pissed off 24/7. What direction does this board swing? Violently right.
Odd. I post frequently on this board and I haven't voted for a Republican since I was 18.
I'm also not pissed off. Why do you lie?

How did the parents frick up so bad raising these little shits?
most of their parents are just like you and me and dont understand it either
the schools are brainwashing these kids from the 6th grade until adulthood to believe socialism is the great utopia and everything wrong in their lives and with this world is because of capitalism and anyone who doesnt agree socialism is the answer
terrorist teach kids to be suicide bombers and the democrats mirrored those tactics and are teaching our kids to be suicide voters and domestic terrorists for the cause, just without blowing themselves up to do that, not yet anyway

Which schools are doing this? As a millennial I didn’t really learn much about politics until college and it was pretty limited
It’s mosty parents, not schools, in my experience. Or just kids doing their own reading
