I think a lot of the problem is a lot of people, even a majority, aren’t sure what a lot of those terms even mean. I’m not sure the people saying it know what it means.

And I’m one of them, I’m not entirely sure what a socialist is or isn’t, but I know it’s an insult that the far left and the far right use.

It’s jargon, and people are just baffled by it.

Except for Harris calling Trump a communist, that’s just plain stupidity.
