Would you like regular or democratic?
David Harsanyi:
No, Bernie isn't Stalin. He claims to be a democratic socialist. I get it. But there's an array of good reasons no one says, "Hey, let’s give democratic fascism a shot." There are just as many good reasons not to normalize socialism. At their core, both ideologies are authoritarian. The only difference is that academics and our cultural stewards have whitewashed one of them.It's usually not a good sign when one has to specify that one's ideology is the "democratic" version.
