Most socialists don't. That's why they still think that corrupt economic and political system works.
Just have to look at all the failed socialist states throughout history, most recently Venezuela.
IMO eohrn, one great failure is that they depend on headlines, and not content. They develop lifestyle and outlook by sound bite or tweet.
Consider the exchange you commented on. Obviously there is no depth the what the poster had been led to believe. I have no doubt the poster felt very confident in the information contained in a headline or two from the posters quite biased and agenda driven sources.
However, it seems to me if you're going to push a claim, you had better know everything about it. Liberal/Socialist Progressives appear to satisfied with effort that falls woefully short of "know everything about it".
