I agree. Marxist is a better word. Communist is better still. We're closer on this than it might appear.
Everyone is saying that Dems are targeting Texas. True, but recently I found myself saying that Communists are after Texas.
Communism and Fascism have a lot in common. There is a fascistic element to these radicals. Communism and Fascism sound worse than socialism and they are more succinct so I’m beginning to use the words.
Socialism falls more under the banner of that magazine headline - “We are all socialists now”. Not that it’s a minor thing, but it’s more what has been evolving in this country for many years from our politics and media. It’s bad, but like Reagan said of conservativism, turn it around and say that in terms of socialism, “you ain’t seen nothin’ yet”, and you begin to frame his.
