Seems you must not know what socialism is either. Norway is not a socialist country. Here is the definition of SOCIALISM for you (once again) straight from the dictionary:
1: any of various economic and political theories advocating collective or governmental ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods.
2a: a system of society or group living in which there is no private property
b: a system or condition of society in which the means of production are owned and controlled by the state.
Does that describe Norway's government and economy? No it does not.
So, rather than calling me stupid, perhaps you should take a look in the mirror first.
Wow, brilliant!!
Using your definition, AOC and Bernie Sanders are not socialists. At no point did they ever advocate we can't have private property or the government controls the production and distributions. The definition you give eliminates socialists as socialists!!!
LOL!!!!!!
You definitely proved your intelligence there, buddy. What a smart guy.
She bought an expensive car and then complained that OPM didn’t fix up her grandma’s place. If either one of my grandmas needed money, may they both RIP, I wouldn’t spend money on a luxury for myself.
I don't know when she got her car, do you??
Before Covid, you can lease a Tesla with $3,000 down.
Judging by this thread, $3,000 must be a fortune to the right-wing.
why can't she patch up poor ol' granny's shack, b0pper?
I don't know what site you pull that from but it's ridiculously wrong. Tesla sold almost 8,000 cars in Norway in 2020. They sold over 18,000 cars in Norway in 2019.
Tesla is the 2nd highest selling electric car in Norway behind VW. Until recently, Tesla was the best selling. 54% of cars sold there are electric.
Battery electric vehicles accounted for more than half of all cars sold in Norway last year, putting the country way out in front in efforts to kill off the internal combustion engine. And Tesla (TSLA) lost its sales crown to the Volkswagen Group.
Carmakers have sought to use Norway as a testing ground for their electric ambitions. Volkswagen's (VLKAF) luxury brand Audi was the market leader in 2020, according to OFV, selling 9,227 of its e-tron vehicles in the country. Tesla's (TSLA) Model 3, the 2019 leader, was pushed into second place with 7,770 sales. Volkswagen's ID.3 ranked third with 7,754 cars sold.

So, NO (I repeat, NO), a true socialist cannot buy an electric car, unless every other person in that socialist society has that SAME electric car. And that SAME luxury flat in the upscale neighborhoods of DC. Socialism is egalitarianism for the ENTIRE society. At least that's what we are told by HYPOCRITES such as Alexdumbria Occluded Cortex.
AOC has never claimed to be a socialist, let alone a true socialist.

AOC Has a Telsa Model 3 , which was 35,000 when first released. Which is far less than any of the trucks many of the people on this thread claim to be driving. LOL
As expected, you guys don't even know what socialism is.
Case in point: Norway is socialist and Tesla is one of the best selling brands there. This just goes to show how dumb the right-wing is.
.
The Scandinavian countries are not in any way socialist. They are very much capitalists.
Sorry, I know that's hard for you to accept.
Sweden's leader had to school Bernie Sanders on that.
