It's funny how self described fascists and autocrats immediately turn to socialism when they're in need...

Well it's only socialism when you give money to brown people.

That's essentially what these people's beliefs essentially boil down to. They don't actually know what socialism is, not really. They're just trying to justify racism.

Well it’s only socialism when you give money to brown people.

You left out unwed mothers, people with disabilities, and anyone else who isn't a racist, fascist, or otherwise piece of shit. It's only socialism when society deems you to be deserving of help. When you're just an asshole, it's crowdfunding against the woke mind virus.

It's a subtle difference that these cretins couldn't possibly comprehend because there is no distinction (that it's actually socialism) because they're as dumb as a rock. But try explaining that to them and watch them sputter about cancel culture.
