>A Leftist tells you the US has been a Socialist Country since the New Deal
How do you respond?
Tell them that they understand what Socialism is even less than the average American Conservative.

Correct. And that's exactly why everything is going to shit.

Most leftists don't want to argue. They just want to win.

second post best post.

more statist sure but I wouldn't say socialist, having a welfare system isn't socialism
>>131918759
>leftist doesn't even know their own ideology
Sounds about right. Welfare states never work optimally long term but it's still not as bad as socialism. It's Greece versus Venezuela
FDR was a cousin fucking cripple that prolonged the great depression and got us into a war we had no business being in

A welfare system definitely is socialism. The question is what amount of socialism is required for a country to be considered socialist.
>>131918759
They're right. It's not GOOD, but they're right.
>>131918759
ask them to define socialism
>>131918759
Tell them they don't know what socialism is.

This. Because its true OP. Dont you remember this thing called WWII where we allied and guaranteed global hegemony of marxism and then allowed millions of eastern european jews in who then spread marxism from within?

This. I learned my lesson over the last election. Never met a single lefty with an open mind who stayed a lefty for long.
Trying to appear reasonable to the true believers is just seen as a sign of weekness

Depends on your definition of socialism. If a government doesn't control something then it isn't really a government.

We're a mixed model, functionally identical to chinks at this point
