I’ve made this argument a lot but people really cling to the idea of being respectable. It’s like if you’re one inch to the left of Bill Clinton they are going to call you a left wing extremist (and if you’re any kind of Dem the Reps will call you that anyway), might as well shoot for the moon.
You assumed that Democrats have any sort of affinity towards communist ideas to begin with. If anything, they hate communism more than they hate fascism, and being called a “communist” by their GOP opponents is truly hurtful for them.
Exactly, just like how people always accuse conservatives of being racist - wait, oh fuck, no
(This is literally never how you become a communist, this could however potentially be how an edgelord teen briefly might identify as being a communist)
AOC is voting lockstep with the rest of the Democratic ghouls and she’s still catching strays, lmao
This is you become a communist. The opponents think you’re that anyway. Might as well become one.
