    Who has won who has proven themselves to be a socialist through actual actions and not words?

      Who has won who has proven themselves to be a socialist through actual actions and not words?

      Kind of hard to prove themselves when they haven’t been in office yet or at least not for long.
      My counter question would be: Who among these newly elected democratic socialists have been shown to NOT be true?
      What is your distrust based on, and how is this NOT better than getting MAGA shit people in again?
      Don’t let perfect stand in the way of progress.

      It’s sickening how you get so many upvotes for merely posing an impossible question and criticizing when there is real progress, what you are doing is the exact same a Russian agent would do.

        You’re just angry because I’m right. I’m also angry because I’m right.

        Edit: also, you live in Denmark and had absolutely no idea about American politics outside of what you see in the news.

                That’s what they keep saying, and they keep never delivering. While we wait, we lose everything.

                  This article is discussing the socialist candidates who won elections in November of this year. None of them take office until January.

                  It is currently December. None of them are in office yet. They cannot deliver anything from the office until they are in the office.

                  Its weird you keep asking.

                  Correct! It is set in stone that nearly all of us will receive a slow and agonizing death, no matter what we do. The important part is making the events that lead up to said death matter.

            I said “who won” so the goal post is still in the same place. Learn to read.

      Being declared a traitor by both the DNC and RNC means you are a socialist. Therefore, Mamdani is a socialist. QED.

      A simple rule of thumb for you: If the powerful universally want you in a shallow grave, then you’re doing the right thing.

                The Affordable Care Act (ACA) is not socialism because it does not replace private markets with government ownership or control of healthcare; instead, it builds on the existing private insurance system by requiring insurers to follow certain rules (like covering pre-existing conditions) and by helping some people afford private insurance through subsidies, while leaving hospitals, doctors, and insurance companies privately owned and operated.

                  It is socialism due to having a left “outlier” score on the US left-right scale.

        I mean like doing anything that could actually be considered socialism and not just capitalism with a new paint job. Sounds like no one has, so bs headline. 🤷‍♂️

            Can you name some “socialism” in the US in the past 20 years? I don’t see any. Perhaps a small blip of “hope” here and there but nothing that has any effect.
