Healthcare: ❎ "No, that's communism!"
Mandatory Labor: ✅ "Yes, that's patriotism!"
🙄

Spin universal healthcare as "Those damn overpayed doctors should be forced to support their nation!" and BOOM, patriotism.

I legit believe it can be a matter of choice of words. I mean, for some issues.

Simply describe any leftist position without using charged words and I guarantee most republicans would be on board.
My mom is "pro-life." I interviewed her on what exactly she believed should be legislated. Turns out she's 100% pro choice but just doesn't like abortion.

Most people are like that. It's really normal to have views from all over the spectrum, not all from one side. Many libertarians maturely face the conundrum that they will always fight for the liberties of others, even if they personally or morally disagree with them. And I'm talking about actual libertarians, not the US "libertarians" their media has.mislabelled and confused.the nation by basically redefining that term to somethung entirely different.

Keep Texas Beautiful- Don’t Mess With Texas-
Kentucky fucking hates Obamacare but if you try taking Kentuckycare (Obamacare+the optional stuff every state was offered+a convenient portal) they’ll fucking riot.

I really am disappointed by the amount of highway litter in the otherwise gorgeous state of California.

Careful, that cuts both ways. They decide what they want the words to mean...

We can do both. It will take time and strong, sustained effort. But we can do it.

Socialism/communism = “someone got something that I don’t think they deserved.”
They’re just bad words to people. I think a lot of the “normal people” on the right are just people who are too stupid to understand politics, so it works like their football team. You don’t need to know anything about the Dallas Cowboys or Patriots to hate them. Democrats are bad because they are the other team. We don’t need to know what “woke” means - it’s just a word that describes people on the bad team.
If you manage to avoid the trigger words, and they haven’t been propagandized on whatever specific topic, it’s really easy to convince them to agree with a lot of left leaning ideas.
