i cannot believe how many decades a single word has had a chokehold on this country with zero sense of political nuance
The cold war has been over for almost as long as it went on...
And I still continually find people on the internet calling Russia communist. It's enough to make a communist scream.
Nah, it never ended. It just became multipolar and (usually) less obvious.
Yup. Decades of Cold War propaganda, an incompetent news media, and a binary, two-party duopoly that positions itself as "the right" versus "the left" have all worked together on this one.
The media aren't incompetent, they're complicit
If communism/socialism mean the less fortunate get help, Jesus Chris is a communist then.
An irony that 100% of Christian Nationalists will never appreciate.
He absolutely was
Meme from the guy getting government “socialist” incentives.
My general response is to ask them to define communism and socialism, highlighting the differences between the two. The results will surprise you \s
Dems: Hey, we have policies are that going to help other people have more of the same rights you have...
Them: THEY'RE TAKIN' MUY RIGHTS AWAY!!!!!!!!
Dems: We're not taking anyone's rights away, other people are just...
Them: MARXIST COMMUNIST SOCIALISM!!
I make meme:
Person: Muskie dum?
Elon: No.
Person: Muskie dum dum?
Elon: yes.

This guy is world's richest man...
Cops are NOT welcome in communism. They’ll already have spent time up against the wall if society ever evolves. ACAB, even ‘at least they aren’t the shitgibbon’
Well, it's never happened that way in real life, but the dream lives on I suppose. Maybe Cuba? I'm not super familiar with the aftermath of their revolution, but Castro stayed a leader until he died, which seems unlikely in a democratic or otherwise non-authoritarian state.
Oh no. A communist? Let's get a removed racist to save us from this horror!
lol every time they try to fear monger about Harris and Walz they just make them cooler. idiots.
"if she wins everybody gets free healthcare"
"he's a socialist"
"she wants communism"
well sign me the fuck up then, you dodo.
They've been screaming about socialism and communism for over 20 years now. The next wave of voters has become numb to this bullshit talking point.
It's kind of how in the past they were screaming that gays are going to kill marriages for 20 years, then people finally saw through their bullshit so now they are attacking trans people.
Republican talking points are always fear mongering and lies. My entire life they have NEVER provided a solution to anything. It's constant hysteria and then reactionary bullshit like the patriot act and Iraq war that has made things infinitely worse.
Republicans want to seem tough, but they are some of the most scared, biggest removed you'll ever meet. They are literarily afraid of bathrooms.....
20? More like 45-65 years.
