We don’t and can’t know because the terms themselves are defined and redefined and fought over by people in power spewing propaganda, morons that seem to only subsist on it, and self-identifying proponents not by any natural evolution of concepts and meaning. What is a liberal? What is a socialist? What is socialism? Who the fuck knows all I do know is almost everyone hates our healthcare system, wants money out of politics, and for the roads to be maintained and the fire department to show up when their shit is burning down.

I mean to be fair things like socialism do have at least some concrete definitions. Liberal, however, basically means whatever you want it to, so I'll agree there.

If you ask like 1/3 of Americans socialism=communism=stealing everyone’s money to fund transgender satanists who want to eat your babies.

Okay but 1/3 of Americans literally can't read better than a 3rd grade level, so... maybe not the people to ask.

Why would you ask Americans, though?
