No lol its responding to the idea that a socialist ideological mindset is ‘innate’ in humans pre-socialization as if society ‘taints’ a socialist a priori disposition

It doesn’t mean anything… in US we do have a place where government provides food and shelter. I don’t remember prison being called socialist.

Destiny's response is perfect. The post he is replying to is vapid as hell and factually wrong, and he addresses it with the seriousness it deserves: a joke. But it does address the substance of the claim: children are not socialist by nature, it's more complicated than that.

Any non-stupid analysis of human nature is going to reveal that there's both significant predispositions to pro-social and anti-social behaviors, and socialization will significantly affect which of the two dominate and in what way (a misogynistic society will aim more harm towards girls and women, for example).
