It's almost meaningless nowadays since everyone is a socialist, according to them.

I mean it would be funny to turn the tables on their nationalist rhetoric by noting the USSR wasted a lot of resources on border security and stupid walls. We've gone from a country that celebrates walls coming down to a country that will never be satisfied with the worlds largest contiguous wall.

USSR wasn't socialist either.

I think saying that borders on a "no true scotsman" fallacy. We can say the USSR was both socialistic and nationalistic but it was not democratic.
