Yes it is. However socialism =/= communism. Awful people have just done a really good job of conflating the two, and treating it as a bad thing. Democratic socialism is a thing, and there was a golden era in the 70s-90s in most other western countries where it was supported by major political parties. These days, as neoliberalism has taken over the world, political parties have tried to walk back these systems. However, they enjoy far too much popular support to be dismantled that easily. Here’s a little bit of info about the support for universal healthcare in Australia:
There is nothing socialist about universal health care, it is the only viable solution lol
Ain’t everything needs some cloen political ideology, sometimes we could just do what works 🤔
🤷♀️
No, it isn’t.
Socialism is the workers owning the means of production.
Universal healthcare is the government doing stuff.
Any economic system or government ideology can do that, other than Reaganite brain rot.
American politics pollutes every fucking discussion without much of any logic underpinnings.
A good policy is a good policy… politics is cancer.
