Let's actually define this...
Conservatives hear this word and think Authoritarian Communisim, aka, USSR, Cuba, Venezuela, etc....
Liberals hear this word and think Democratic Socialism, aka, Sweden, Norway, France, the UK....
All of the polices being proposed by the Democratic party "socialists" all align with policies already enacted in Sweden, Norway, France and the UK.... but yes, those policies also exist in Cuba and Venezuela and the now defunct USSR...
So are we, as Americans, closer to Cuba and China and Venezuela.... or Sweden, France and the UK???
As long as we continue to have fair elections, which the democrats support and republicans seem to dread, We will go down the path more like Sweden, Norway and France, if we avoid the cult of personality trap that ensnared Cuba and Venezuela, then we won't end up like them, unfortunately, Trump and his supporters fully embrace the pursuit of that cult style of governance (imo)
