America wants socialism, but our two parties rather have fascism.

The funny thing is that Americans do want socialism, they just don't want the word socialism as they've been told their entire lives that's the enemy

Americans don't want socialism in the slightest lmao. Marxists are genuinely some of the dumbest people around

Social welfare isn't socialism... If you're the type of person who thinks Bernie Sanders is socialist or that Sweden is an example of socialism, then you don't know what socialism is.
