They're just also fellow hypocrites who leave their Marxist manifestos on the shelf in their libraries where all the other University text books ended up or as a doorstop or sofa shim somewhere.
To US fascists, Communist is just a replacement term for "They're Jerks who don't do what I want or say I'm selfish and mean"

Yes, it is like a movie franchise and people don't realize they're just getting more of the exact same thing, though in the end, they usually get nothing. Then they turn around and fall for it again with another candidate.

This is why I don't think that we should stress the "Socialist" in 'Democratic Socialism' - because people are idiots and don't know the difference between Communism and Socialism.
I think I posted about this last night.
We must deal with this immediately before it becomes a very popular meme.
Let it be known that Hitler's party was the National Socialist German Workers' Party
Throw it back in their faces. Trump admires Hitler....a socialist.
I'm honestly panicking about this.

(26,879 posts)made it over into a fascist party.
Associating Hitler with socialism as a put down of Trump is a stretch that most people would not get. Instead, it would work against Dem candidates because it would link Hitler with liberals, progressives, and all Dems in general.
In Bush Jr's first campaign and term, his supporters linked Nazis with liberalism and with socialism to paint Dems as Nazis. I encountered many online posters at various website discussions who believed, or at least promoted the belief, that Dems were Nazi socialists/communists. The propaganda lumped Nazi, liberal, progressive, socialist, communist, and Democrats all together as one and the same political identity.
We really don't need to say things that would end up linking Nazis with progressives and liberals in the general public's minds. Trump and MAGAs will try to do that.
Maeve
(43,557 posts)Communism centers on common ownership, distribution based on need, and the end of private ownership, something that ain't gonna happen in the US (and the end of money, which they tried in Star Trek, but just didn't work)
What we have growing in America is social democracy, which supports a gradual, reformist and democratic approach to achieving social equality. Much of that is a reaction to greed running unchecked (I'm looking at you, vulture capitalists) and a rise of oligarchy
Admitted I'm simplifying to some extent, but I grew up in the shadow of the Red Scare and people conflating socialism with Stalinism and communism with totalitarianism. Different systems all around

.. the U.S.S.R. aka real Communists, he works for the Russian President Putin, who was @ one
time a KGB agent, spent time in East Germany working with Stasi the Communists secret police, and
repeats old Soviet Union propaganda that the Europeans werent paying their fare share to NATO.
* A traitor to the USSR in WW II who fought with the Nazis. He was executed by the Soviet Union
after the war for being a traitor. The KGB knew back in 1987 that Trump was a traitor to his Country.

Trump would like nothing more than to throw the nation into an unfounded panic. Remember, only He can save us.

(395 posts)Maybe they'll make Nvidia pay a special tax to allow them to sell certain chips in China. Or use the FCC to pressure TV stations to remove shows they don't like. Or force mergers and acquisitions between companies they like. Or impose high tariffs to force Americans to buy only government-approved products. Or have government take stakes in private companies. That does sound scary. Someone should put a stop to it.

(5,125 posts)When you put it like that, it sounds like a raging psychopath with the moral compass of a rabid hyena and really bad comb-over needs to have his lips superglued together, and dragged by his cankles out of the White House. And don't protect his head when you shove him in the back seat of the cruiser; there's nothing in it anyway.

Any aid or benefit that helps the people is communism to them. It's pathetic and people are tired of it and they see right though this BS.
The con and the current extremist regime cut off food benefits for people. They cut out assistance for single moms and their children. They cut people out from gaining health insurance. They are kicking people out of medicare. Food and gas prices are out of control. People can't afford to buy houses and the con artist refused to sign a bi-partisan housing bill because he is hellbent on taking away our voting rights.

(3,071 posts)the Socialists, no, it's the non-white non-Christian non "straight men", no it's the women that want equality and won't do as they're told, no it's the communists that are to blame for everything that prevents white Christian males (and Clarence Thomas and Stephen Miller) from succeeding in this Country. Yeah, that's it.
Just remember, don't blame the rapist, felon, thief, con artist, accused child predator currently occupying the Presidency for the major blunders that have resulted in the destruction of everything that was the best that America has had to offer.

(1,332 posts)Trump does not know what communism or socialism is.
He supports socialism as long as it is for his oligarchs.
Trump has delusions that he will go down as one of the great persons of human history.
And the people he thought great were some of the top mass murderers of human history.
This is a poem to describe Trump will not just stop at Communists.
In Germany they came first for the Communists,
and I didn't speak up
because I wasn't a Communist.
Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn't speak up
because I wasn't a Jew.
Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn't speak up
because I wasn't a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Catholics,
and I didn't speak up
because I was a Protestant.
Then they came for me,
and by that time no one was left
to speak up for me.

Mr.Bee
(1,997 posts)calls, referees to anyone on the left "communist". I seriously doubt he and other Republicans who use the word know the difference between socialism and communism, but they're happy to receive their monthly Social Security payments, use public road and so on. I remember Marjorie Taylor-Green used to use the word incorrectly also. She seems to have stopped.

(402 posts)Trump is using a tired cliche' which has been discredited and made fit for only ridicule and satire. He is such a fool he thinks this act still has relevance in a modern multicultural world. Due to demographic shifts, the Us vs Them racially divisive politics of the past will be proven to be more foolish than the noises Trump makes during his rally speeches.

He is in a battle to stop the next election.
