Socialist Meme

So. There's a lot of back-and-forth on the social mediae about "socialism". Much of it is about how roads and plumbing are all examples of socialism followed by those who insist that, somehow, public roads are not socialism.
Which is... odd.
There's a bit of a disconnect about where the line between "socialism" and "capitalism" lies. To presume that it's somewhere around Bernie Sanders but not around (say) public roads requires a bit of a logical breach though.
And things like Social Security are historically directly related to socialist (and occasionally anarchist) activism.

But it's sort of like that relatively recent meme that the US isn't a democracy, it's a republic. Which is a weird and new way to split hairs but seems to mostly be the result of a new-found fear that the populi are turning against gun nuts. But they don't want to say we're a democratic republic, or a constitutional democracy, so they change the definition of "republican" to mean "constitutional" (and seemingly without any reference to democracy at all.)
