My guess is 100 percent of the people who do want a socialist have zero idea what socialism actually means.
Here’s some things young people should understand about socialism:
• 4 of the top 5 genocides since the 1900’s occurred due to socialism and communism
• Everytime it’s done on a mass scale your basic rights erode until all at once they’re gone

• If you think Venezuela can’t happen here then you don’t know just a few years ago Bernie Sanders said that Venezuela more embodied the American dream than America
• Political opposition becomes criminal or heavily persucuted
• The majority end up poor and hungry together

• Since the Soviet Union fell the extreme global poverty rate was cut in half due to capitalism
• Socialism led to my grandparents & Mom having everything they worked for stolen from them at gun point, leaving them penniless

Lastly Norway, Finland, Sweden, etc. are not socialist countries. They’re Nordic models. Their wealth relies entirely on capitalism. It’s not a scalable. We have more people in California than Norway, Finland & Sweden combined. They spent little on military which we cannot do.
Socialism does not work. @AOC needs to meet with kids and their parents who experienced & fled the failure of socialism in Venezuela. #SocialismKills
