A socialist, in democratic, capitalistic, western countries, is a person who was, more often than not, raised in a white, middle class family and adopts a socialistic political world view to vent the guilt felt by such an upbringing. This cathartic measure is a form of psychological flagellation and an attempt to identify with poorer people and countries. The socialist realizes that the hand they were dealt was not contingent on there being "special" but lucky.
The socialist then projects their insecurity's on the great
"father figure" of the USA. In doing so they concentrate there hatred of America by villainizing and inventing "facts" and "events" while ignoring real problems outside of there scope of focus, revealing there motives to be far from objective.
The socialist will spend endless time, money and effort
protesting tedious trivialities about the USA, such as trade laws or political meetings, and conveniently ignore tragedies occurring as they protest, such as massacres in Africa promoted by Muslims and Despots, or vicious sectarian rivalries across the Middle East.
The socialist ignores these nasty facts about the world because they were not, in some way, connected to the USA.
The lack of any real connection to their “pet issues” and the USA does not always stop their wonderfully specious logic from drawing a connection. This also extends their putting a spin on historical events, or a complete revision of history itself. A good example of the above is the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, now, it appears, that this was an act of terrorism and imperialism, rather than an ugly act of a very ugly war.

The "nice word" for "communism." While socialists claim to believe in nationalized health care and education, they don't usually realize that nationalized programs for these things, unfortunately, usually suck ass.
I'd rather pay $100,000 for cancer treatment than die while waiting 7 months to see a FREE specialist!

The post office takes a week to return my calls. My State university takes 2 weeks to return my calls. I have to wait 2 hours for counter service at the Department of Transportation.
I can only imagine how long I would have to wait for government health care that socialists think is a great idea.
Will the clinics be closed on Columbus Day too?

one who thinks the end justifies the mean, the end being lazy welfare cases taking all the money from hardworking people, the mean being electing obama as president

someone who believes the rich should have to pay for the poor, the government should own all businessess, any given company should have to kiss the ass of all its customers. They also tend to forget that every socialist nation has failed in every imaginable way, and the people live in misery all the time.
We aren't socialist, we just think that noone deserves to be rich, no matter how hard they work at it, and lazy people should have the same amount of money as everyone else.

Barack Obama is a friggin' socialist. How could all you people vote for him? You people are so dumb that you don't even know what socialism is. This country is going to Hell--er, rather--more Hell... Hell level 2.

Dumbass who believes that poor people need the government to help them by taxing the hell out of the population, making everyone poor in the process.
