problem with socialism is who's gonna pay for it, we don't want to much taxes and end up poor like EuropePeople are so fucking stupid. They don't understand that all the western countries including the US are socialist to a degree. When "Socialism" is uttered all the cold-war propaganda flashes through their heads and all rationality is gone, mentioning "Cuba" and other irrelevant shit.
This problem was instigated by libertarian conservatives to demonize other ideologies in the past and later used to push for elitist policies that don't work for the working middle-class.
Now you have news outlets like Fox News using this to demonize people like Bernie, knowing most people are programmed to react in certain ways. They are aware of this ignorance and manipulate their audience through professional smear tactics and fear mongering.
