    Even for people that think that they are against democratic socialism, there’s no way they read this and think that’s a bad thing. This reads like something that’s used to promote DSA rather than fear monger. It’s out of character for Republicans to slander something so softly without any sort of hate rhetoric or other blasphemy.

    Really, who can read this and say, yea, I want the power to stay with the wealthy and not be with the people other than wealthy people? I would have guessed this were satire if I just saw it in passing.

      Maybe they’re actually trying to boost it because they think it will create a civil war among democrats? The same way dems boosted Trump over previous conservatives.

      Feel free to listen to their Fox News attacks on AOC. Their audience has been trained to automatically hate her and anything she does, so they can present her platform straightforwardly and without fear of losing their audience.

      Hassan Piker is another guy that often gets criti-praised.
