Carmen Ejogo Instagram – “Democratic Socialism means that we must create an economy that works for all, not just the very wealthy”. Bernie Sanders.
It’s so ridiculous to me when people freak out at the term “democratic socialism” but maybe that’s because I benefited from many democratic socialist programs in the UK growing up. Do people freak out because everyone brings up the worst case scenario of Venezuela? Here’s a list that may surprise you of countries that have adopted democratic socialism over the years and they’re mostly doing just fine:

Some of the best aspects of democratic socialism are already here.
I’m trying not to get bogged down by labels. Trying to look at track record and character. Bernie has spent a lifetime committed to uplifting the working class.
