I’m sort of ok with liberals adopting the “socialism” and “communism” since I can easily hold them to account. Yes I know radlib “anarchists” or soc dems are annoying online, but IRL (and sometimes online) I can easily out-smug them cause I have read a little bit of theory.
“Oh you’re a communist because you think everybody should be paid the same wage? It sounds like you aren’t up to speed on the concepts of idealism vs. materialism and the LTOV, let me explain…”
Or “THE US GOVERNMENT IS CAPITLAISM HQ, THEY ARE NOT TO BE TRUSTED, AND THERE IS NOTHING SALVAGEABLE THERE” (emphatically, not loudly)
