Version 6.18.1
Republicans have long weaponized the word "socialism" to attack social programs that actually work. This meaningless resolution was pure political theater designed to distract from real issues like healthcare costs and housing affordability. Democrats who voted for this embarrassing stunt showed they're more concerned with appeasing wealthy donors than fighting for working families who need these essential services.
A majority of House Democrats exposed their true colors as they refused to condemn socialism's horrific legacy of mass murder and oppression. This wasn't some trick vote — it was a straightforward denunciation of an ideology that has killed hundreds of millions. The fact that more Democrats supported socialism than opposed it proves the party has been hijacked by radical leftists who embrace failed policies that destroy freedom and prosperity.
