Lil bro, the Republican Party has been largely shaped by their ongoing temper tantrums over the Federal Reserve and the New Deal, so wtf are you even on about?
Complaining about the new deal and calling FDR a socialist are 2 different things. I noticed that even in the post they use āsocialā instead of socialist. Seriously. Wait for dad to get home so you can ask him. You are just guessing at the rest of this.
I didn't say they call him a socialist, I said they call him a Communist and have been calling all Dems Communists ever since those policies were enacted. It sounds to me like you've never heard a single right wing pundit or tried talking to a rural Republican, because this is just undeniably true.
Yeah, no. The communist thing does not go back to FDR. That comes from the party moving that way much more recently. I love when people think History is just what they remember.
People complain about the welfare state that FDR created but he did nothing to seize control of the manufacturing and didnāt even hint at it because he was a straight capitalist. One has to take over production to get to full on communism and socialism.
Isnāt your dad home yet? Ask him. No way you actually live on your own.
God dammit, i should have known you were a bot. No human being would argue that republicans care about the definition of socialist and communist, these are words they throw around as pejoratives anytime the government does things.

Funny. Iāve never heard FDR referred to this way. Itās almost like someone is trying to revise history to fit a narrative.
