Do people actually watch this stuff? How do they synthesize it?

As someone who lives in an ostensibly "socialist" nation, I roll my eyes when I see things like this. This is unbelievable.

I can see this kind of thing fuelling the paranoia and misconceptions of millions of Americans.

They honestly think this is socialism? "The path to socialism"? Communism?

Holy crap. Are we living in the '50s?

And, Pan, I can't believe you'd be willing to take up arms. For what, exactly? This tells me one thing: you believe the American system of government has failed. What do you want in its place? You can borrow from our system in Canada if you would like. Or is that too socialist for you? But, wait....you want to go up against the capitalists it seems. Are you gunning for a socialist revolution?
