i cannot believe how many decades a single word has had a chokehold on this country with zero sense of political nuance
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.
Nah, it never ended. It just became multipolar and (usually) less obvious.
If communism/socialism mean the less fortunate get help, Jesus Chris is a communist then.
Yes but they don’t like that version of Jesus. Or when you point out things they don’t like from the Bible
Can’t they hire someone to help them with their memes?
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 bitches you’ll ever meet. They are literarily afraid of bathrooms…
The problem they have is that communism was a real enemy of the US with examples of autocratic governments worldwide that were well known and scary to people.
However, now that everyone can Google “what is communism” and “what is socialism” only the most incurious morons fall for the “that’s socialism!” lines of attack. Everyone else simply laughs about it.
It really doesn’t help that Republicans are openly talking about how they want to setup and autocracy/monarchy which is exactly the scary part of former/current communist states. Nor does it help that whenever Republicans are labeling something communist, it’s loved social programs such as libraries, social security, or Medicare.
Goddamn musk is such a fucktard.
