Socialism describes a government’s political /economic structure. Socialism is the public ownership and central control of the means-of-production and investment whether administered by self-appointed elites or administered democratically.
Socialism is not a large amount of services provided by the government nor the enforcement of law regulating a free-market.
Note: Regulation is not ownership. Means-of-production is defined as investment in and the mass-production of factory goods since the industrial revolution and not crafts, mercantilism, or trade.

The trillions of dollars drained from American society over the years by the arms manufacturers and our wars of choice have already significantly reduced our standard of living. Social programs like Social Security and Medicare will be sacrificed next to keep the money flowing. Our enemy is not Russia or China. Our enemy is the military-industrial-congressional complex.
Count the Logical Fallacies used by the "Anti-war leftist" How many do you find???
20 Common Logical Fallacies – Don’t Be a Victim!
1. Appeal to ignorance – Thinking a claim is true (or false) because it can’t be proven true (or false).
2. Ad hominem – Making a personal attack against the person saying the argument, rather than directly addressing the issue.
3. Strawman fallacy – Misrepresenting or exaggerating another person’s argument to make it easier to attack.
4. Bandwagon fallacy – Thinking an argument must be true because it’s popular.
5. Naturalistic fallacy – Believing something is good or beneficial just because it’s natural.
6. Cherry picking – Only choosing a few examples that support your argument, rather than looking at the full picture.
7. False dilemma – Thinking there are only two possibilities when there may be other alternatives you haven’t considered.
8. Begging the question – Making an argument that something is true by repeating the same thing in different words.
9. Appeal to tradition – Believing something is right just because it’s been done around for a really long time.
10. Appeal to emotions – Trying to persuade someone by manipulating their emotions – such as fear, anger, or ridicule – rather than making a rational case.
11. Shifting the burden of proof – Thinking instead of proving your claim is true, the other person has to prove it’s false. Continued...

The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is spending billions of dollars a year on its foreign propaganda and censorship efforts, including presenting state-owned outlets as independent journalism, according to a new report.
Beijing’s Global Megaphone, a new report from Freedom House published January 14, details how Beijing uses propaganda, censorship and content delivery systems to control global public opinion abroad.
Freedom House, an independent watchdog organization dedicated to the expansion of freedom and democracy around the world, previously named Beijing as having the least free internet in the world.
