Socialism for white people only I guess?

I really really hate that they call themselves a socialist party… like the KKK calling themselves Racial Unity.

It’s about attributing all the ills of society to a particular class (specifically the class in charge of the banks and other moneyed interests) and claiming that all violence and oppression directed toward them is justified.

Teeeeeeeeeeechnically, the term is correct, the Nazi regime did offer socialist benefits… Only for those they considered “nationals”, hence NatSoc.
Socialism alone does not guarantee democracy nor freedom of speech, it is strictly a financial system where the means of production are owned by society. The prefix “national” then defines who that society is.

And yet it is used as the bogeyman anytime someone mentions the dirty word “socialism” in the US. Despite the fact that Socialism at this point would have to be better better than the crony capitalism we have now.
