I've got a set of microscopes I could lend you.
You're going to need an overactive imagination too. Possibly a collection of cognitive impairments.

God I wish Harris was a radical Marxist
Democrats: "let's pass some reasonable reforms to temper the ill effects of deregulated capitalism"
Republicans: "that's socialism and you're a Marxist!"
Youth: "we want reform so I guess we like socialism!"
Republicans: "the radical left is indoctrinating our kids!"

I promise you, the Republican party doesn't care who they offend as long as it's an out-group.
Genuinely, watching Harris be referred to as a radical communist hurts me
Radical Marxist communist fascist or something wasn't it. Lol
Radical:❔ maybe, if she can skateboard
Marxist: ❌ lol
Communist: ❌
Fascist: ✅ could be worse though
(I'm voting for Kamala, don't be grumpy)
I'm not sure how many of the youngins remember that use of the word 'radical'.

I was just impressed trump graduated from communist to Marxist. Getting more specific and less accurate!

I’m more of a practical American socialist than a radical communist (since that’s unlikely to happen here) but it offends me because republicans are just so ignorant. The average Republican essentially has no idea what socialism, communism or fascism actually are, and conservatives have been using this as a scary label for my entire life.

Im not offended as much as I am disappointed in the Democrat party, why aren't they as cool as the Republican say they are. Whenever Trump calls them "far left communists" I think "damn I wish", instead they're boring center right liberals. Also I was promised by Trump that the Democrats would end capitalism, kill capitalists, instiute a worker owned economy, open the borders to immigration, enforce Trans rights, promote actual diversity, and unify the left under the red banner.

Democrats should ask themselves why Republicans are more worried about imaginary communists than actual Democrats

Or… just start pushing actual socialist policy; since everything gets called socialism anyway, we may as well enjoy it.
Corporate donors disapprove.
Why would they? The Democrats are one wing of a state dominated by monopolist Capitalists, they serve the monopolist Capitalists.

Both sides are wrong, just that Democrats are center-wrong, while Republicans are far-wrong.

Can confirm. Every time the reps call Kamala a "comrade" or "Communist" I die a little bit inside.
They're using a word their base is afraid of to paint their enemies in a negative light.
Their words aren't for any of us.
They'll change to using anarchist satanists or whatever once their base has reached somatic satiation and "communist" no longer generates enough of the right dopamine hit.
Oh I'm aware, believe me. The world would be a much better place if Kamala was actually a Communist is what I'm saying.
If Kamala had tried to do anything vaguely socialist while AG or Senator, they'd have gakked her like they did Harvey Milk.
Silicon Valley leadership wants to turn California into a fully techno-fascist dystopia. Nobody who has climbed the ladder as Dem, Repub, or Indie politician has lasted long against that effort. Harris isn't an exception. She's the kind of politician a state produces when anyone more liberal than Gruesome Newsome is systematically excluded from the party.

Or they'll get lucky and a new term like Trans or BLM will come along.
Hate is hate. People that hate will hate. Societies that don't respond quickly and firmly to reduce hate will grow more hate. Etc .
Ideas come from material conditions, hatred of trans people, black people, etc. is a result of rising fascism due to decay in Capitalism and proletarianization of the Petite Bourgeoisie.

Is it forbidden in English to use commas?
Too close to the word commi
Commas are somewhat discouraged... or at least discretion with commas is encouraged. We have a rule about commas. "If in doubt, don't."
We should only use commas for certain prescribed circumstances or if the comma is necessary for clarity.
That said I will defend the Oxford comma to my last breath.

As a communist... Yeah
I promise the republican party doesn't care and just says whatever is most offensive in their eyes.

And it doesn't make communism sound scary at all, but rather mysterious, alluring, and worth checking out.

Fucking commies, taking our tea and throwing it overboard just because they didn't want to pay taxes. We should send an armada to put them all in jail.

Capitalism (or at least the current form of it) and right-wing parties should be illegalized worldwide.
