Democrats don't need to embrace or distance themselves from "socialist" or "woke". They need to call bullshit. It's a southern strategy dog whistle, a term from the unreconstructible south for "white person who makes common cause with black people". thenation.com/article/archiv…

GOP is oligarchism 101, everybody keeps forgetting Fox News attempted merger was foiled by the Democrats; trying to buy up news outlets everywhere, also remember Trump eliminating Gov. international funding to news outlets; "wake up people", "trying to control the media"!
