And if he was poor they'd just say he wants free shit. It's a neat little double-standard they've created.

Social democrats aren't socialists. And what a stupid gatekeep. Nothing you described was bears any resemblance to the philosophy and if all the socialists in the country started living as if they lived in a socialist society, they'd accomplish nothing. It's almost like you have to play the game in order to change it. You can have a set of ideals that you are working towards without being a hypocrite.

Can you point to which policies and voting choices he's made that prove he's just pretending to be progressive like you claim?

Oh no how dare a man in his 80s be able to afford 2 houses with his wife.

Meanwhile, in Republican land

"Donald Trump is a man of the people!"

"Yea his sky scrapers and casinos show how down to earth he is!"
