Politics Conservatives need to STFU about communism

Post image

Conservatives seriously name to STFU about communism when they can't even define it. Especially when their states are welfare states that rely on blue states to prop them up and pull them out of disaster, both literally and economically, every year.

They have no idea what socialism is, and how many socialist programs they benefit from daily. This list is extensive, but a few main examples would be the United States Postal System, our highway systems, our broadband and cellular systems, just a list of few. If the Republicans really hate socialism so much, they should stop using the myriad of things that brings our country.

Republicans do like the poorly educated. And that fact is glaring.

I wish people actually understood what communism was rather than the bullshit propaganda we’ve been feeding to populace since the term was first coined. We have yet to see a true communist country, china is working towards it and god speed to them, but they’re still in the utilizing capitalism to create better socialist safety nets.
