The problem is that maybe 90% of the American public has no idea what communism and socialism actually mean.

And they are unaware that (greed-is-good) capitalism is the problem...

We weren’t taught it in high school when I graduated in 2005. They want people to be ignorant. I had to use the Republican kryptonite to learn the difference… a dictionary.

It's why they want to ban books. They will do whatever it takes to make their MAGAt base more braindead and malleable. An advanced vernacular is a silver bullet to the GQP. Next, they'll be screaming bloody murder about the Very Hungry Catarpillar, if they aren't already...

I'm so sorry to hear that. 😫 I'm fortunate, even though I've got conservatives in my family, the bulk of them are very much against Trump and even voted outside of their partisan lines to get rid of he and his lapdogs. I have lost several close friends and some that are like family though... 😕

Yea you’re a product of the Republican no child left behind generation. They use to teach this when I was in school and I graduated in 95. But I was also in all college prep history and government classes.

90% of the general public couldn’t identify the vice president from a photo.
