Yeah, I am not interested in playing the “who’s right and who’s wrong” game either. I will observe that most folks in this country who self identify as socialist (inc. me) have a different understanding of socialism. That’s likely to lead to misunderstandings, esp on Twitter.

I like to think of American socialism it as kids who grew up in a very strict household fantasizing about what it would be like to not have parents. They have no common language with people who really grew up without parents, and it's hard to even be talking about the same thing.
