Yes, but, the article is of the Democratic Socialists of America. Then it shifts to US progressives. During the Cold War, the movement of international socialism generally includes communists.Originally Posted by AProudLefty

Wrong, that's successful Communist Socialism. That's what happens when they're in power.

It is both illiberal and totalitarian.

They are not Communists. No clue why people confuse those two.

Agree, not only him, vast majority of wingers are totally clueless as to what socialism is, all they did was take the evil Commie tag of the last Century and replace with socialist today, they are just the product of their information sources
And no, I'm not reading any article posted by someone who still can't figure out the definition of "socialist."

What about followers of Kristol, Goldberg, Williamson, Kasich, Ryan, etc?

Wrong. It wasn't Karl Marx's Communism. Nor is it socialism.

Is there another kind of commie tag? Socialism sucks just as much this century as last. Progressivism is arguably much worse now, since it has abandoned patriotism as a virtue.

It's not sharing. Theft, murder, extortion, and imprisonment are not sharing.Sharing is illiberal and totalitarian?

It was the most widespread and longest lasting Socialist government to date.

Therefore it isn't socialism.

Marx's Communism has never worked, ever. He never worked, ever. See how that goes?
You expect a man that has never worked ary a day in his life to know what's good for all workers and entire countries?
That's fucking insane!

I kind of like them, Gin.
I'm one of them in fact.
I do miss the People's World daily newspaper, I have to admit.
We don't have great journalism anymore.
But somewhere in a government dossier, there's a note that I once had a subscription.
Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel. Samuel Johnson, 1775
Religion....is the opiate of the people. Karl Marx, 1848
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose. Kris Kristofferson, 1969
