Joe Biden isn’t a socialist. It’s debatable whether BLM is marxist.
Here are some more labels thrown around in contemporary political discourse that are similarly used by the intellectually lazy, and usually also without evidence or facts:
I think we all need to be more careful when throwing around labels. A negative label (e.g., Socialism or Marxism) circumvents the necessity of thinking accurately, based on facts and evidence. Having no respect for the truth is an extremely acute psychological failing, leading to the conclusion that a person cannot be trusted.
Joe Biden is not a socialist. Black Lives Matter is not Marxist.
How about being more careful about "throwing around labels" for trump american voters like nazi, deplorable, uneducated, white supremacist? seriously, **** you, digital, and your post referenced above.

I agree with you, that those labels should also be avoided. When Hillary Clinton made the "deplorable" remark, I knew she had lost the election. It was a stupid and snotty thing for her to say.
Socialism and Marxism is the only path to true equality, we just have to let go of all we were taught to "need".
Go live in Cuba or Venezuela. Pack your things and go - immediately - and find your socialist Shangra-la. It’s not America and it will never be. Bye!!
The Left has labelled me an Irredeemable Deplorable for not getting in line with them and a few idiots have called me a racist for liking Trump and one of them went on to Dox me and my business with negative reviews having never even met me.
The trouble with so many on the Left is that they practice identity politics that automatically throws people into boxes based on their thoughts, ideals and skin tone.
We all need to keep an open mind.
Joe Biden is not a socialist but Harris sure is. BLM is not a marxist group, I don't think they are that organized but they are more like terrorists.

So very wrong. Obviously, you're no student of history. Implementing a Marxist society has been a goal of Black activists since the 1960s. Listen to Elaine Brown, a member of the Black Panther Party's Central Committee and their Minister of Information, discussing in her own words how the BPP's goal at the time was the destruction of the US Government, the end of capitalism in the US, and the "institution of a socialist scheme." The relevant part starts at about 7:00 in this NatGeo documentary clip, if you wish to FF...
I would add that, regarding the Nazi label, if a group has swastikas on their shirts, hats, cars or flags, and they do the Nazi hand salute and make scary remarks about non-white minorities, then they would not mind being called Nazis. I don't know this for a fact--I'm just guessing.
I would not associate the Black Panther Party with BLM, and wonder why others do. Seems a little far-fetched, to me.

Old joe is not the president ...don’t care about your labels I don’t want socialism or Marxism

Thank you the left uses labels all the time we are deplorables. Want to round us up, reprogram...get over it

Why? Both are militant Black group. They employ the same tactics: vandalism, destruction, terrorism.
