@vicfroh I'm pretty sure "woke" replaced "socialist" since that tweet was made.

@jernej__s @vicfroh I think they are still used interchangeably. Anything that could be considered fairness or compassion, basically.

@vicfroh My parents do not even know the word “Nintendo,” and the reason is that they were born into a communist dictatorship where their families were humiliated, and they themselves were left deeply broken in both soul and mind by people who claimed idealism while pursuing power through violence. And we had, and still have, homeless people in our country. Please think about that.

@zolaris Communism is just fascism done in the guise of socialism

@zolaris @vicfroh Sorry but what does that have to do with fascists crying "socialism" at any and all social safety nets? Tell that to the conservatives, not us.

Tweet by user voodoo_pork from 2020 reading, "You know how your parents used to call every console a 'Nintendo'? That's how conservatives use the word 'socialist' to describe everything to the left of hunting the homeless for sport."

@vicfroh
Um, no, to them every electronic console or game was an Atari.
