    I have no idea what you’re talking about

    Sanders is a self-proclaimed democratic socialist. But so what? You think the average person under 40 is actually afraid of socialism? You think that’s a bad word? What are you, a boomer?

    Also, considering that you’re defending American oligarchy and genocide, it’s pretty clear that you’re astroturfing

    How’s the weather at Eglin Air Force base in May?

      Nothing you just said makes any sense.

      The term you used “social democracy” is not what the movement is called in the US. That’s a European thing. democratic socialism is the movement Americans Americans are fighting for.

      It’s curious that when I pointed this out to you, you immediately accused me of being a boomer in the air force afraid of Democratic socialism despite just being told I am one.

      Thanks for outing your account!

        Social democracy and democratic socialism are two completely different things. The former is liberalism (with an enormous welfare state - which is what the Nordic countries have and what the US has never actually had and have diminished since 1968.) The latter is socialism. Please do not correct anyone about misuse of terms unless you actually understand what you’re talking about. Log off and read before spreading ignorance - unless you enjoy being accused of astroturfing.

          …i am aware they are two separate things.

          My god, bots are getting quite good. A boomer in the air force scared of socialism, for instance. Iquite creative.

            You’re embarrassed about being wrong and now you’re lashing out.

            So not only do you not understand political theory, but you’re willing to defend genocide when it’s done by the blue team

            You should pray that hell does not exist
