This is seriously bad. In any European country it would be seen as ludicrous. (Social Security originated with the Socialist Party, by the way). #MakeNoise #ThisNeedsToChange
New US military training document calls socialists a "terrorist" ideology and lists them alongside "neo-nazis" amid Pentagon crackdown on domestic extremism, per counterterrorism training material leaked to me: theintercept.com/2021/06/22/…

The problem with these organisations is that they believe they are dealing with the ignorant and uninformed. Socialism is not Fascism and never could be, nor could it be Communism - they clearly have no idea! In truth, what they are peddling is pure propaganda.
And yet Trump wanted to buy Greenland which is full to the brim of socialists. They must think the whole of Scandinavia is a terrorist cell.
Who knew the Pentagon was reduced to two sides.

Depends what you mean by socialist. If you mean a socialist like someone that wants a totalitarian dictator to move to communism. Then yes they are probably dangerous. If you mean someone that wants a social democracy like In Scandinavian countries then no.

This is likely an holdover from the Cold War. I remember seeing such docs. And there are still vestigial followers of this indoctrination, understandably so, given its entrenchment in the instructional ideology.

The borge is fighting back. As more awareness increases, expect even more clamp down.
You mean the same European countries whose existence was threatened by the USSR for 50 years?

Only critical thinking and education can turn this sh*t around. Socialism is now a trigger word.

I guess voting for Biden was a vote against democracy, who knew? 🤷‍♂️
