Trying to keep up here .........
One POV posted here was that Bernie Sander's is a socialist who advocates for huge government spending and programs.
Next POV - Is Bernie a Socialist depends on how one defines a socialism.
Next POV - Sander's is like socialists in the Scandinavia.
Next POV - Scandinavia (the Nordic Model) is NOT Socialism.
Next POV - So, Trump is a socialist because he spends $54b on defense. (WTF?)
Next POV - Opponents of Sanders want to characterize him and his supporters as Bolsheviks
Next POV - (reiterated) Sanders is closer to socialism than standard D on the continuum.
For those of you in the discussion, how is that not understood? Pretty clear to me how the original discussion point started when I posted in response to Froot's assertion that Sanders is like socialists in the Scandanavian countries that he's not at all like that. He's pretty much like talent stated he is. Can other's offer arguments that he is not?
