democratic socialists

yet to me this is the platonic ideal - it encompasses the principals without other baggage. and we have multiple examples in eu countries where it’s produced results that we desperately need - universal healthcare, cheap education, and sane worker rights. I know many americans would look askew at the socialists part, but confronting head on and producing results is what will lead to success, not shying from alienating those who will never support it because… reasons. <ahem racism classism etc.>
