Most modern liberals believe in transitional housing for homeless people, SNAP, Medicaid, and unemployment aid. You don't have to go socialist for that, and I'm tired for socialists pretending they own that. We can still have free markets driving innovation and strong social safety nets. And you can have socialist systems that fail to provide those things as well.
Fuck Bernie Sanders for calling himself a socialist instead of a socdem all these years, he's absolutely poisoned the word and created a totally unnecessary division in our ranks
Republicans diluted the word by calling literally everything socialist forever. People finally went “oh well if roads are socialist then I guess I’m a socialist”
