Not according to Bill Maher. He still thinks it’s a slur. Not that his opinion matters.

Maher is right on this topic, at least this one.

There is no such thing as a “democratic socialist” as it is an oxymoron, even VDH is using it. I should make a graphic of this as there are AI programs that are out now I should try.

AI definition for what it’s worth:

“Democratic”

Means relating to a system of government where power belongs to the people, featuring equal rights, and free voting.

“Socialism”

It is an economic and political system in which major businesses, factories, and resources are owned or regulated by the public or the state, rather than by private individuals.

With every new policy they propose, the socialists have been dropping the pretense that they are not Marxists

The media do not get to whitewash the bloody history of communism. Marxists in all their self named pseudonyms need to pointed out and young people taught the true history of the devastating ideology. They never learned in the Howard Zinn propaganda manuals.
