    "Communist", "woke", "liberal" just words that mean "thing I don't like" to them

    Doesn't help that they've been calling literally anyone with a D next to their name a communist or a socialist for decades now.

    I can remember when I was a kid, "socialism" was something bad the way it was talked about, but I had no idea why. As soon as I was old enough to understand what it actually meant I knew that was bullshit.

    Younger generations don't have the same Pavlovian response to words like communism and socialism, so I think these boomer-ass losers are in for a rude awakening if they think they can continue to lean on that tactic.
