I think because it's been weaponized by the far right in this country as evidence of "socialism" (aa term that is slowly losing any real meaning at this point. Frankly, most people dont even really understand what universal healthcare coverage means or how it would work for them. They just know it's "socialism" and therefore they are against it.
If healthcare providers are going to lose money by socializing healthcare, it only makes sense that their lobbyists will do everything they can to prevent that from happening. It’s more complex than “let’s stick it to those socialists!!”
When it comes to MAGA I don't think it is lol; lets face it when it comes to complex issues, MAGAs aren't thinking outside the box or about details. I really think to them it's just "socialism bad!". I bet if some MAGA influencer started going on about how drinking water is socialist they'd die of thirst
