What socdems?
Revolutionary social democrats from Lenin's time? (There was a time, when "socdems" were synonyms for communist)
That being said, yeah... your parents are a bit iffy... you ever wonder if they have a stake in acting the way they do, because the alternative is just too scary?
(like yk, westerners like to "hate" their gov't, but seem to defend it, against its foreign policy enemies all the time; in their consciousness, the western gov't that keeps on exploitin' them at least keeps the treats flowin' in their economy)
hate the government because it's objectively bad, but have no empathy for foreigners who they don't consider human. I really don't think people actually understand unequal exchange and look at it and decide it's good.
Literally no ideology. What they want will change on a whim.
That's why calling out hypocrisy in Chuds is lib tail chasing. They only care about 'winning'.
Oh mostly just my friends who are left leaning but not radicalized. They're not very involved in politics, organized socdems are horrible
All current socdems, which we mainly regard as capitalist liberal-adjacent and thus right-deviationist, are what we call as part of "anti-communists" since they're more interested in preserving capitalism with safety nets.
Would you just say they're just less anti-communist, compared to others...
Yeah, I guess, or maybe not call these people socdems.
