What RW'ers think Socialism is:

[SHRED]

---

Taking money from working people and giving it to people who do not want to work.

---

That's about as simple as I can put it.
That is the depth of the RW'ers I come in contact with here in the San Diego area.

1. And yet, every jobless person I've ever met wants a job and can't get one n/t

[spanone]

2. and that's too complicated for most of them

:hide:

[burning rain]

3. They're likely to call anything they dislike socialism.

Knuckleheads.

[valerief]

4. I think it's more like that amorphous fog of communism that blinded

America in the fifties and sixties. It's so terrible it can't be specifically defined, just feared. It's the monster under the bed.

[SHRED]

5. great observation

[pepperbear]

6. "Taking money from working people and giving it to people who do not want to work."

that's not socialism, that's a byproduct of corporatism.

[cliffordu]

11. Yep, but that little fact is WAYYYYY over the head of most people out there.

[Lex]

7. they're so afraid somebody will get something that they don't get too

it especially infuriates them if those people might be some shade of brown

they don't want us all to get by well if someone gets something they didn't get

miserable creeps

[Hydra]

8. They bought the big lie

They're worried about the poor people stealing from them, when they should have been watching their bankers, churches and politicians...you know, the well dressed thieves?

[Mind_your_head]

9. Isn't that the definition of "corporate welfare"?

Taking money from working people and giving it to "people" who do no want to work?

[lbrtbell]

10. RW'ers hate the poor, elderly, and disabled

All are leeches in their hate-filled eyes. :(

[JenniferJuniper]

13. And yet

most of us - wingnuts included - are likely to eventually become elderly and/or disabled, and quite possibly very poor.

Will they hate themselves more or less when it happens to them?

[cliffordu]

12. That would be me. I don't work and live on the dole.

I AM SOOOOOO DRINKING YOUR MILKSHAKE!!!!!!!!

:rofl:

[leftofthedial]

14. wingers are stupid, lazy, ignorant and uncurious.

deadly combination for our species I fear.

[Hannah Bell]

15. and gulags. and mass executions.
