My aunt. We sat down and got to talking policy. Not politics. And I went point by point over policy and proved to her that she was a socialist.

But as soon as I said the scary S word her pavlovian conditioning kicked in and she tore off on a rant.

Try it yourselves. This country is filled with socialists. They just don't know it.
