In the US, the word “socialism” seems to be confused with ”communism” like they were exchangeable. Mostly like people think vegan and vegetarian are the same thing. Nazis and Soviets were both socialists, despite being classified as right and left wing respectively.
There’s a lot of things the US could do so much better if it understood that even hardcore republicans can be socialist and remain ideologically intact.
I guess we’ll have to find another word for it, since this one seems to have been tainted during the Cold War.
