I have a college graduate relative who has been posting crap about how Pelosi and Biden didn't pass a Covid law. I'm amazed how people who really should know better resort to lazy uninformed thinking about things. I also think it's really imperative for those who are leading the charge in the Georgia runoffs to really define Socialism. The constant drone of that boogeyman IMO really frightens people who just don't understand or care to educate themselves about these kinds of things.
