    The American Conservative Union is the org that runs CPAC. It was founded in late 1964 to carry forward the conservative movement that had powered Goldwater to the GOP nomination. This is one of their earliest brochures from March 1965. To them, liberals have always = socialists.pic.twitter.com/YZW5PQfRwA

        If you're under 56 years old, America has been on the brink of socialism your entire life according to the American Conservative Union.

        I remember in the 80s and 90s all the people who basically equated liberals with communists with socialists with Marxists.

        Honey, up here in an isolated rural area that's harder to get to than Seattle to Alaska, we've all admitted we HAVE to be socialists, or we can't survive. We NEED constant road repair, organized vaccinations, scholarships and food banks. "I'm not a socialist" is just privilege.

        Or rather, socialist = everyone that they don’t like and therefore liberal = socialist.
