this is the same 'poll' er survey is what they are now calling it....instead of a poll...that Conservative was trying to tout....what were the questions asked? If it was do they support things like universal health care.....and then Fox is trying to turn that into a you support socialism stunt....which it seems it is.

No, it isn't. You are perfectly free to join a socialist collective, never engage in any work and have them house and feed you. Communes were fairly common 50 or 60 years ago and they are a perfectly legal option for anyone today.

BS. You can't poll a minority of American hating marxist and socialist and expect a reasonable result. In fact these wacko's who don't like America need to go somewhere other than America, stay 5-10 years and see if they want to come back to the America they are now unhappy with.

Gee, “Marxist-socialist-America hating-go somewhere.” Are there any other right-wing buzz words from the glossary you want to include?

It is clear with the 2020 census that America is becoming a less and less white nation, and that is a good thing , and much cause for much celebration .
It is also clear from current polling that the majority of this burgeoning diverse population is in favor of a socialist government .
What I have not yet heard is what thriving , mostly non-white, socialist nation can be pointed to as a model that this new socialist America can look to emulate

Why do you exclude the white socialist countries?

Why would we want to emulate people who have created such an awful place to live that they are running in fear of their life from these places and seeking asylum here. The smart solution would be for them to emulate us and then they wouldn't have to run here in fear of the place they created. By emulating us they could create a great place to live where they are at. That way the whole world could be a better place instead of such an awful place that people need to flee it in fear of their life.

No coercion? So if I choose not to work I won’t starve or go homeless?

And monopolies would never happen in capitalism because there is absolutely no coercion/influence peddling.

Socialists are fond of saying that socialism has never failed because it has never been tried. But in truth, socialism has failed in every country in which it has been tried, from the Soviet Union beginning a century ago to three modern countries that tried but ultimately rejected socialism—Israel, India, and the United Kingdom.

Three Nations That Tried Socialism and Rejected It

So, you agree then that nations like Sweden are not socialist. Excellent. I'm glad you and I are in sync on this, that you agree with progressives on this fact.

Way to copy/paste someone else's thoughts, by the way. Impressive.

nope, it was Thomas Jefferson...he was an avid reader of the Quaran

“Neither Pagan nor Mahamedan nor Jew ought to be excluded from the civil rights of the Commonwealth because of his religion. -quoting John Locke's argument.”​

What is a “socialist government structure”? Socialism is an economic system, not a governmental system.
Click to expand...
You did not finish your definition .
Here, let me help:

:" an economic system " over which every aspect is controlled by the government .

But you already knew that didn't you ?

It is coercion. Refusing to work threatens me with death. That’s exactly coercion.

Yea, your refusing threatens you, nobody else is threatening you.

Can you elaborate on why you think skin color somehow limits our options in governing?

You are not aware of the immoral atrocities committed in America as a result of white power , and the decades long residual circumscribing of the non-white races to this day as a result
of the white race ?
Just as we are getting rid of them according to the census, why would you want to pollute a brand new better way with them ?
They are evil by virtue of skin color .

Why would non-whites come to America in order to emulate the country that they left?

You don't emulate a country you left, you emulate a country you'd kind of like to move to. For those who support Democratic Socialism the countries they admire are Denmark, Norway, Finland, Sweden, and New Zealand.
Unfortunately, they're all kind of cold and relatively small or far away.
