I’m confused as to why anyone is being called a socialist. When all they are doing is using tax dollars to help/support people as it should be and improve infrastructure. What else are tax dollars supposed to be used for?

It’s a natural response to the ultra conservative agenda that we have had

I dont know how much you know about socialism in Milwaukee, WI. We had 3 socialist mayors from 1910- 1960 with some gaps in between. It was the golden age of Milwaukee. We also have the record of socialist mayors. Daniel Hoan was the longest serving mayor. I'm hoping that we bring that back this year and elect Hong for our governor.

It actually reminds me of the tea party movement. Moderate republicans were getting primaried on the right. The moderate democrats haven’t fought back so they are getting primaried on the left. Why it took 20 years for this to happen is beyond me.

Anyone else find it fascinating that wealth was more equal in 50s/60s - 80s (before Reagan) AND that is the “golden age” conservatives/MAGA wish to return to?

more Americans would call themselves democratic socialists if they just took 0.01% of the time they spend explaining why they arent Democratic Socialists, and use it instead to literally just google what "democratic socialism" means.

You're definitely right, because we're already living in the second Gilded Age.

I am also a social studies teacher. Your content is like hearing myself think out loud. Some days being able to see the historical connection is grounding, and some days I wish I didn't know so much to have to know everything we're going through has already been done before 😭

Mamdani has given us a glimpse of what it can look like when government is serving the people. We have to demand that.

To me they are not really any more socialistic than classic New Deal Democrats

I will call myself anything, so long as it gets Americans a new deal. I would not have identified as a democratic socialist a year ago. But I think this is How we get where we're going

we need to push for higher education, education in general, and education employment. the ultimate cure for conservatism is critical thinking, understanding complex ideas, and sociability

Around the same time, states like Oklahoma and Texas had large numbers of registered Socialists, think farmers, laborers, miners, lawyers, teachers, doctors etc from rural communities. That history has been completely erased from these places
