      I mean they got it better than the Dems. Literally none of the ones libs picked are socialist.

        It's good that Democrats are associating the term "socialism" with countries widely perceived to be successful, though. If socialism = Sweden in their minds, we can work with that a lot easier than if socialism = horrible totalitarian dictatorship with no food and only drab grey buildings.

            That's generally accurate, although I'd say (based on the OP) Democrats don't associate imperialism with socialism because Democrats don't see imperialism in general.

    This poll is trash. They didn't even include Vietnam, Laos, North Korea, or Cuba so they literally could not have had three correct options. It is YouGov after all.

    What’s the correct answer? My guess would be Cuba, China, and Vietnam in no particular order but I’m a dum dum on this subject .

        In the embedded tweet they had a chart showing rankings. For Dems it's those three Scandinavian countries, Finland, and then China, nd then Venezuela and Canada are tied, and then Russia. For chuds it's those three, then fucking France, then Sweden and Denmark, then Canada, and then Finland, Norway, and fucking Brazil basically even. They are ridiculously wrong in their own ways.

      tbf they were finally allowed into government after a brutal civil war and basically had all their demands met which resulted in a supermajority in favor of maoists

          its really bad afaik, based off of some interviews ive seen from a variety of sources. its mostly because india is blockading supplies and they have to import everything from shenzhen across the himalayas. china is doing some good work and are boring a tunnel through the himalayas to nepal for highspeed rail, but thats still a ways off. you cant easily import things via air across the himalayas either, so this is a huge deal for nepal if they get the rail network up.

    I'm surprised that even though most Trump supporters think of Putin as a friendly force they still think Russia is socialist lol
