You do realise that pretty much the entire world accepts a degree of 'socialism'? Some 'capitalist' countries (eg France) are pretty damn socialist, others (eg UK under Tory governments) a bit less so. The ONLY political party that seems to demonize socialism is the GOP.

If the entire world is doing one thing (ie showing a bit of compassion for the non-wealthy), and the GOP is doing the exact opposite, it might just be time to think carefully about who is right.

They certainly haven't told Marjorie Taylor Greene that there is any hint of socialism in the GOP. :lol:

They say you get the politicians you deserve...one can only guess what those who vote for her have done. :shock:
