    Love the socialism but hate the socialist.

    They’re calling out the hypocrisy of “conservatives” who depend on and appreciate social policies but then label anything they don’t like as evil socialism.

    American freedom of ignorance at its finest.

        Having public land is a socialist policy. Public land is owned in social ownership instead of being owned by private interests. It’s the classic definition of socialism.

        The poster is saying that conservatives actually like socialism, since they like public land but they hate socialists who are advocating for such socialist policies.

        Public lands are valued by conservatives for recreation and food, even though they’re lands held in common — ie: socialist.

        That maga doesn’t like it. They want public lands to stay public - socialist value/law. But hate socialists/Dems and vote GOP

          Yep, also they slobber all over the knobs of Big Fossil, too, when they chant mindless things like “drill baby drill”.
