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.
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.
The “he’s a Communist!” shit isn’t fooling New Yorkers anymore.

Republicans: “He’s a communist!”
Dirty liberal/leftist/progressive New Yorkers: “Good”
“Communist”, “woke”, “liberal” just words that mean “thing I don’t like” to them

The oldie but goodie has made a comeback. “This engine is communist.”

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.

And that’s why education is communism to these assholes. If people know how to think they will see how terrible republican ideas are.
Pffft.
Look up Fiorella LaGuardia, considered New York’s best mayor ever.
He ran on a Fusin Ticket of the socialists, the Republicans, and the Communists.
