Get the The Democratic Party mug.Hym "That progressives are both distancing themselves and identifying as democrats. Like, 'democrats are doing it wrong but also democrats (me) have also won elections.' So, like it's both you and not you. Right? You're dumb. Your pathology is visible at a glance."

Get the Democrats mug.see also; champagne socialist, oxymoron, left wing populism
democratic socialist; somebody who is a left wing populist.
if you don't want to read all of this, here's your definition in simple terms; a childlike, imaginary world of how society should work.
a person, usually of upper middle class or upper class who subscribes to the idea of a classless society in which all are equal. in other words, they wish establish a welfare state. these people typically discuss a "revolution" with such cult-like behavior, that you could easily compare it to christians awaiting the rapture.
the majority of democratic socialists support Palestine, Ukraine, and the Scandinavian welfare model.
prominent (D)emocratic socialists include Bernie Sanders, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC), Hasan Piker, etc.
the use of the word "democratic" means the interests of the Democratic Party (USA), and has always meant that. socialism inherently involves interventionism (soft term for authoritarianism), so the use of democratic is to simply attract more supporters, usually liberals who keep lying to themselves that they're not authoritarian.
oh, and don't EVEN get me started on that dumbfuck Hasan.
tl;dr, socialists who want to pretend to be libertarian.
