Vehemently agree.
Republican (to me): “Go with socialist. Don’t say progressive. Too many Dems pretend and lie about being progressive. They don’t have the courage to pick up the mantle of socialist. I can respect someone who’s honest.” Do you agree or disagree with this Republican?

I don’t like the labels the right uses to attack us. How about just some common sense. We should pay less taxes % than billionaires and shouldn’t be at war for 200 years. Any rational person should agree with that.

I am a Debsian Socialist. To call me a Socialist isn’t something I am offended by, and unabashedly accept. Now, redefining what a socialist is in the minds of many is the real challenge.

How about getting rid of the confusing labels. I want a healthy, plentiful life 4 all people, all groups in our world. Banish the extreme riches & extreme poverty. Life should be more about experiencing & enjoying life, not about working like a slave 2 make someone else rich.

I do not think that I am being dishonest when I call myself progressive. The dishonesty I hear from the right is "Socialism is Communism."

His context is Democratic politicians; that some are and some aren’t. That they claim to be just for votes, not because their actual stances. Whether we are has no bearing on his statement. Many on the left would agree that the title has been hijacked by corporate interests.

I agree. Even if your policies are just the simplest of Socialist policies, healthcare, parks, education, etc.) you won’t be associated with anyone who doesn’t also support these policies and more. Plus it takes the teeth out of the attack they’re going to use anyway.
