But afaik it's simply not the case that 30% of the population was sympathetic to socialism in the 1950s. Maybe if you really tortured the term "socialism", but come on.
- sudosysgen 6y ago30% is an arbitrary number, but even at the time where more people in the US were sympathetic to socialism and were ever sympathetic to modern libertarianism, it was violently suppressed by the state, much less "canceled". As far as how many people were sympathetic to socialism at that point, 15-20% isn't a bad estimate. But if you want something closer to 30% in the 1950s, how about just being black?
