U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene is steering away from the Holocaust, at least so far this week, but out of nowhere and for no discernible reason Tuesday night she laid into “Socialist” President Joe Biden.

It did not go well for her.

By any definition President Biden is no socialist.

In fact, just so the Georgia Republican Congresswoman is clear, socialism generally requires, as Merriam-Webster notes, a “collective or governmental ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods.”

Aside from the coronavirus vaccine – and those aspects were set by Republican President Donald Trump –nothing comes close.

If she really wants to stretch, Merriam-Webster offers this: “a stage of society in Marxist theory transitional between capitalism and communism and distinguished by unequal distribution of goods and pay according to work done.”

Literally what President Biden is fighting: the massive pay inequity.

Here’s what Rep. Greene said:

Joe Biden is a Socialist.

Dem voters don’t fully realize it yet.

The Democrat party are socialists, but they are all a little different in varying degrees.

They think it’s good for society as a whole, but it’s a fantasy, and all Marxism.

Socialism is always Socialism.

She was roundly mocked.

Perhaps the most appropriate response came from Benjamin Dreyer, a writer and copy editor, the copy chief at Random House and the author of Dreyer’s English: An Utterly Correct Guide to Clarity and Style.

Well, those are certainly words.

A sampling from some others:

She can’t even spell socialism without spellcheck.

You sound like a fascist AI bot programmed by fascists to say socialist as many times as possible to cover for ascending fascism from fascists who support fascists and want fascism — and I guess there’s a reason for that.

You couldn’t explain what Socialism or Marxism are if you had a book opened to the definition.

Joe Biden is a Socialist? If so, I am Elvis Presley.
Also, socialism is good. You know what’s is bad? You urge for fascism and the continuous for corporocracy that is ruining the US.

MTG is a Cray-Cray

GOP voters don’t fully realize it yet.

The GOP are antidemocratic, but they are all a little different in varying degrees.

They think it’s good for society as a whole, but it’s a fantasy, and all very insane.

Crazy is always Crazy.

Anyone can call themselves a Socialist. Like any economic system, socialism can be used for good or ill. It means the state controls the major industries. Biden is most certainly NOT a socialist bozo.

Ah yes, when you want to scare a bunch of gullible right-wingers, always drop the word “socialism”.

Then bring it home by using the word, “Marxism”.

Notice Marjorie will never actually tell you what policies of Biden are Socialist.

Living in Norway (a social democracy) and it is fantastic, vast individual freedom, great education system, child care, senior care, health care, welfare, possibilities for perfect work-leisure balance and opportunity for all. Biden is good, but still far from being a socialist.

Yawn…
Again with the trigger words to spread Russian talking points propaganda.
Only idiots would believe Joe Biden was a “socialist”.

President Biden is not a Socialist. He has been serving his country for more than 35 years. What the hell have you done other than spew lies and conspiracies? What are you doing for the greater good of this country? You can’t even keep a committee post.

— Cindy🗽 (@cynthia_wirtz) June 2, 2021

Dear Marge,
Pres. Biden is not a socialist. I wish he was but he isn’t.
I AM a socialist, I’ve had the fortune to live in lovely Norway. Marge, I am such a socialist that I would prefer that everyone have a home, healthcare, free education, food, educated leaders & no guns.

During Sunday’s “Swamp Rangers” radio program, radical anti-LGBTQ activist Scott Lively declared that God stripped Donald Trump of the presidency because of Trump’s promotion of the LGBTQ agenda by giving a gay man, Richard Grenell, prominent positions within his administration.

Lively was an ardent supporter of the former president and had hoped that Trump would use his presidency to destroy the LGBTQ movement by enacting Russian-style anti-gay laws in the United States. Since that didn’t happen, Lively said that God had no choice but to remove Trump from office.

Lively lamented that Trump was good on just about every issue, “except on the homosexual issue, which I think is his biggest mistake” and “the reason why he lost the election.”

“He defied God on a fundamental tenet of the Bible and never repented of it,” Lively said. “If Donald Trump was, as I believe, God’s man in the White House for four years, why did God not preserve it? Because if God had given him favor, nothing that mankind could have done could have removed him from that office. And yet the one thing that he did during that time that would virtually guarantee God’s favor being removed was to put his own personal stamp of approval on behavior that God condemns in the harshest possible terms in the Bible, which is specifically male homosexuality.”

“Trump fully endorsed and backed and applauded [Richard] Grenell,” Lively added, “[who] was an outspoken advocate for the central doctrine of the progressive movement, which is queer theory.”
