Okay, many people participate in society, doesn’t mean we don’t have freedom...to do what we want and choose our own destiny, instead of the government doing it for us.
Advocating for liberal policies doesn't always mean advocating for socialism. Assuming one is far on their side of the political compass over them disagreeing with you makes no sense at all.

I don’t see much libertarian left anymore. I see a lot of Antifa commies and communist politicians like AOC and the Squad taking over the Democratic Party.
No. AOC isn't a communist. She may have some socialist ideas, but she isn't a communist by any means. Plus, Antifa stand against authority. That's why you hear them say they want the state abolished.

I don't have any beef with you. I'm just trying to understand you. That's all.

That’s why I don’t call things left of center “liberal” anymore. Liberal means liberation. Entrapping people under full government control is not liberation.
So, I guess you and headhoncho are the same person eh? Not that it makes any difference. I’m at least glad you are not in America. We have enough pinkos already.
I think my meme is right. Socialism entails confiscation of private property and government distribution of all goods. Rationing will happen. That means all the things the people in that pic enjoy may no longer be available. The government will decide if you get it. That includes food. They foolishly think socialism is some utopian thing when it is far from it.
Problem is they want to drag people who don’t want it down with them, which definitely includes me. They need to have their own part of the country or something. Stop trying to include people who don’t want it.
