Cortez wants to turn United States into another Sweden

She is not proposing anything that would change the racial makeup of the US...:slapme:

Are you sure? Race is the only difference between Swedish socialism and Venezualan socialism.

Sweden is over 90% white. Does Cortez want The United States to be 90%+ white?

Then you'll argue that liberals are race baiters and dividers. Democrats started the KKK or other irrelevant crap. Yet conservatives like you continue making racist claims like this.

What does Sweden being 90% White have to do with anything? Are you suggesting that if the U.S. were 90% White Sweden's socialist institutions would work?

That has to be the most stupid thing I have ever heard in my entire life.

Hint: who is the president of each...

Of course that's the only argument that you can come up with.

So your say Sweden is socialist because the government owns some businesses, and when I point out the US does too, you say try and spin it as I do not understand the difference? Do you have a single coherent argument to make?

OK, clue for you: you saying over and over they are the same, when it is obvious they are not, and don't even have remotely the same setup, is not going to make your stupid comment any more true, or less stupid. You made a claim, that the two are the same. How about backing that claim up rather than crying about how people who actually have knowledge of the subject don't understand you. Man up and back up what you say, just once.

So "your" saying that Sweden isn't socialist? Lies and insults are all you have?

You're killing me smalls.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Venezuela

About 51.6% of the population is Mestizo, while 43.6% are white of European ancestry and/or Middle Eastern ancestry. Another 3.7% is black/African, while 2.7% is of full Amerindian ancestry, and 1.0% other races ( principally Asian people).[1][2]

Yes, White Hispanics do exist.

So you are saying the US is socialist?

They all have the same wiki page. Since that makes them the same to you, the US must be the same too. Hint: maybe the problem is not with every one else...

Did Sweden offer safe haven to the Saami when Finland and the USSR were trying to exterminate them? I believe that was primarily Norway that gave them sanctuary.

And another anti AOC thread. Never has a freshman congressman elicited such fear. LOL!

Also she does not want another Sweden, she wants a different US with more respect for minorities, the environment, the weak and vulnerable while making it a country where most people will flourish, even if the very rich have to pay more taxes.

Like most conservatives, you have a simplistic understanding of what socialism and capitalism are. Sweden and Venezuela are very different.

Sweden, like most countries, is a mixed economy. The U.S. is a mixed economy. Sweden has more social institutions than the U.S. overall so it's considered more "socialist" than the U.S. but far far less "socialist" than Venezuela. Economies don't neatly fall into two categories or even dozens of categories.

I hope you learned something. Educating confused conservatives is what we do here.
