I think in reality what socialism actually means in the American context is that trillionaire Elon Musk got $38 billion from the U.S. government and you got rejected trying to buy a $1 soda on SNAP benefits.

"With this merger, the entire media space is concentrated in the hands of a few oligarchs, all of whom you’ve seen whispering sweet nothings into Trump’s ear. Ellison has CBS and CNN, Musk has X, Zuckerberg has his Meta empire, and Bezos let democracy die in broad daylight when he gutted WaPo."
