Shit. More than half of the older generations do as well, as long as you can frame the argument without using the “Boogeyman” words.
Talking to anyone MAGA about politics is so maddening because you’ll ask: Do you want (DSA policy)? Yes. Do you think that (DSA policy)? Yes. Would you like it if (DSA policy)? Yes. Do you want (MAGA policy)? No, that’s insane! What do you think of (MAGA policy)? No!
Ok, who are you voting for? Anyone with an ®!
Oh FFS.
I absolutely hate this increasing focus on the term “Democratic Socialism.” Y’all, focus on the fucking issues. James Talarico, who is doing really well in Texas, has never mentioned or associated with the term, but for example the headline on his last newsletter was “Trickle-Down Economics is Theft.” Please, please, please focus on the actual issues like he is, that’s how we win.
Nah, I disagree. People who focus on the issues get called socialists, and ten years ago, that would have been a big blow against your campaign. It’s good that people like socialism now, because it means people like Mamdani and El-Sayed don’t have to work as hard to be perceived as legitimate politicians. They can be out and proud about it and still win elections. This could be the seed of a leftward shift in society.
The kids are alright.
still not enough of them so vote blue no matter who when you get the chance
don’t be sore losers lol
Half of young people don’t back democratic socialism? That’s wild.
We’ve had a century of being taught socialism is evil. The word is essentially poisoned in American politics.
Well they goddam sure don’t want their taxes going to rich people or murdering people in foreign countries.
That’s Commie talk!
Yep. Or American.
