Poll: Many Democrats say they’d rather leave the country than stay and fight if the U.S. is invaded (Read 5324 times)

I think people who say this are not all communists or socialists. A lack of patriotism is a completely separate issue to whether someone believes in socialism.

Take people who think Hawaii is an occupied nation. They don't care to defend the USA but they aren't just socialists.

I was unaware Native Hawaiians were migrating from California.

NOBODY SAID EVERYONE leaving California is a Socialist.  But, there are many more Democrats in California than not.

Democrats are, by definition, more Socialist/Progressive/Left-leaning than not.  In fact, the Party is so Left-leaning, Socialists and Democrats are almost indistinguishable ideologically.

Democrats decry the Right-wing extremists' so-called "attack on democracy," yet they are the ones who oppose individual liberty and freedom more so than Republicans, Libertarians, etc.

Characterizing SOME of those moving from California due to decades of mismanagement and the recent increase in tax burden on individuals, families and businesses as "Socialists" is not wrong.  Nobody said ALL of them are.
The reasonable man adapts himself to the world;
the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man.

They're just dumb.  I enjoy watching Charlie Kirk destroy socialist supporters on college campuses.

The issue seems to correspond with a massive sense of entitlement
Pretending to be offended does not make you a good person.

Socialists are dumb or people who aren't patriotic?

Texas, Idaho, and Florida were very outspoken about migrating Californians.  They said if you leave Kommifornia to come here, you better leave your communist social agenda behind.

You're right.   The topic was about Californians migrating.

When you adopt an ideology that's failed every single time it's been tried in large scale expecting THIS TIME to be different, you're either dumb or insane.

Adding adjectives like "Democratic" to "Socialism" doesn't make it better.  It means you don't understand Socialism .... i.e. "ignorant."

No it wasn't. The article in the initial post doesn't even mention California. Someone farther down the discussion mentioned California. I didn't respond to that person's post.

Socialist, well excluding socialist who are at the top of the chain. The ones who benefit from socialism.

Ok, because my comments were not really about socialists

I won't dive into the complicated discussion about the spectrum of socialism here though.
