I'm a 'Lurkin socialist'. Meaning that my values can be viewed in such a way that the person who describes me can fit me into whatever strawman character they like. Whether that's one extreme, or the opposite of that extreme doesn't matter.
"you must be a socialist"
I'd love to see just one quote from me that you could find during the last 6 years that supports this. Again, I'm a 'Lurkin Socialist', but this only appears to have a reverse correlation to the term 'Socialist'.
