“Electoral headwinds” is a funny way to describe being so unpopular people want you dead.
I find these terms acceptable. Socialism vs Billionaire Pedophiles

Hmmmm…
A) Democratize the workplace
or
B) Connected billionaires kidnap your child and rape them.
I think I’ll have a look through door A, thanks.

If i may. Read up on the idea and practises of Kurt Eisner. The bavarian socialist who ALMOST realized a full (democratic) socialist state. If only the social democrats wouldnt have betrailed the workers, as they always do/did

Arresting Pedophiles is SOCIALISM! Affordable groceries is SOCIALISM! Healthcare is SOCIALISM! NO Data Centers is SOCIALISM! Feeding starving children is SOCIALISM! Defunding ICE is SOCIALISM! Taxing Illegal Immigrant Elon Musk is SOCIALISM!
-LITERALLY Republicans!

Nothing sold me on socialism quite as effectively as Republicans claiming anything that could improve my life was socialism.

I thought they were going to frame it as “communism” cos “socialism” isn’t alarming people anymore
uriel238@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 weeks ago
Communism isn’t really all that scary anymore.
All the horrible features we were told about USSR are happening here.
Amuro_eat@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 weeks ago
I’m referring to something I read last month, iirc, I saw that the magats were planning on attacking their opponents with saying their policies are “communism” because polls have shown that Americans aren’t really alarmed by them saying “socialism” anymore.
It’s really nice hearing that though, it’s showing that more and more people are getting more open-minded to listening to an alternative to the cesspit of capitalism

Fine, it’s socialism versus autocratic fascism, with a bunch of oligarchs thrown in.

Aaaah so the soviet union in the 1920s. Lovely /j

GOP politics is just socialism only for the 1%. They’ll bail out an air conditioner company cuz they’re “too big to fail” (even though they’re big and they did fail), but they won’t bail out the future of America by canceling student debt. The companies can take our money; that socialism is fine. Oh but grandma needs chemo? That’s bad socialism!

Socialism sounds pretty damn good to me.

For once, it is coming closer to true than ever before when they have made this exact same claim. It is a self-fulfilling prophesy now.

Americans, you have to take the chance that what you understand as socialism, really isn’t what it is, elect socialists, and find out for yourself. So your own research, by way of electoral experimentation. Vote for the most socialist and see for yourself how it goes.
grepe@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
“do your own research” is a phrase that has been misused by internet conspiracy theorists so much it is painful to read by now. it is not something you tell to someone you want to convince about anything. it is what your uncle says when he wants to shut you up about telling him that government is not made up of lizard people or what fox news repeats when they want to condition you to thinking rhat billionaire yax is a bad idea…
ThunderComplex@lemmy.today 3 weeks ago
Yeah this is a trigger phrase for me. I don’t think you can use it without sounding malicious even if unintentionally
theacharnian@lemmy.ca 3 weeks ago
So you mean there is a chance.
Marthirial@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Jokes on you couch-fucking daemon. I’ll go harvest corn instead of this shit we have now.

Cool. I’ll take socialism.
