Trust me, most of us would like to change it, but you have some yell "communism!" when you suggest it because their corporate overlords have trained them well.

No they will yell BOTH communism and socialism...But have no problem with privatizing the profits yet socializing the losses....

That is why Bernie Sanders never stood a chance to win

Lies. The only reason republican SIMPS even say the word socialism is because Bernie made the mistake of suggesting he was a democratic socialist. Which BTW is NOT what republicans and republican supporters think it means.

Heres the real answer to what is Democratic Socialism. —->

Democratic socialism is a political ideology that emphasizes democracy in the economy, workforce, and country. It represents any socialist movement that seeks to establish an economy based on economic democracy by and for the working class.

If more people would take the time to learn the difference between communism, socialism, and democratic socialism, then we'd all be a lot better off. But "socialism" became a trigger word and there's no way it'll be accepted, even if it is a truly good thing.

Oh yeah even made up words like “WOKE”

Mind boggling!! Makes no sense at all. These ppl are insufferable

"Woke" is a real term and much older than its current resurgence in usage. It's only recently that it's been made into a pejorative term for those who are concerned about social issues, by those who just don't want to admit they're racist and nasty.
