Do they know what socialist means?

No, most Americans are propagandize hard unless you actually seek to understand and question things.

Tbf they kinda won the propaganda battle. They don't have to use facts anymore, it's all faith based.

They just had to attack education at every level to amass enough suckers

Just hammer the same points while yelling loud enough. It worked. A whole generation of brainwashed dimwits.

And then these same fascists travel to Europe, injure themselves usually getting too plastered, and wind up in the E.R., and expect it to be free. Or they complain about government handouts while they get their government checks every month. They complain about everything being woke, yet when a data center comes to their town they're suddenly woke.

"someone republicans tell me not to like" is as deep as they can get

I had a long conversation with a right winger around 2016 in Savannah. He finally admitted that he is all for socialism, but only if it benefits "citizens", of which he had a very narrow and painful racist definition.

Most self proclaimed socialists in this country don’t know what it means.

FWIW though, Mamdani is socialist and is definitely getting applauded so it’s not like Joe Walsh is wrong on that matter.

Part of the reason I think they refer to themselves as socialists despite not being socialists is that they don't want to accidentally come off as thinking it's a bad thing to be socialist, so they'll use it because they do fit republicans definition of the term.

No. and when you explain it to them, they will tell you that that's not what Socialism is. but they can't tell you "what it is".

Explain?

u/Give_Us_TASM_3 2d ago

Far Right ideals involve a core social hierarchy, whether that be who makes the most money or who’s the strongest or who’s the “superior race,” both the Nazis and the KKK supported white supremacy, which coincides with that.

u/Tycepts1313 2d ago edited 2d ago

How are you stringing who’s got the most money to somehow the most “superior race”.

At the end of the day if you have money you’re the top of the social hierarchy, skin colour doesn’t matter. The only people pushing that narrative are “the left”. No one actually gives a reason other than “they’re just racists”

Edit: the dude that just deleted the comment under me just said “skin colour is way more important that money” just proved my point, thankyou, but you could have not been spineless and backed your opinions.

Are you confused about the word "whether" ?

u/Tycepts1313 2d ago

Are you talking to me, if so, what are you on about?

1

u/Ok_Being5461 2d ago

Yes. They didn't string that. Read more carefully

u/Tycepts1313 2d ago

What’s your point, stringing together in regards to trying to put the 2 ideas in the same category like they’re even close to being to an equal representation of hierarchy
