Socialism is government ownership of buisness. All forms of government have taxes and government institutions.

If what you listed were socialism then the socialists should STFU because they already have it, right?

They don't all have healthcare, among other things. It's a big wide grey area, ripe for disaster capitalism to exploit.

They have medicaid, Medicare, and Obama care. If we gave all medical power over to the government we would be absolutely fucked right now with forced experimental jabs. They would deny medical coverage to anyone not compliant. Thank God we haven't made that mistake yet.

Somehow, ALL European countries have handed their medical power to the government and are doing just fine.

Yeah right, just like Australia turned over its guns and they are totally fine too. 😅

Australia was fine, more or less - until the scamdemic.

Yeah, thats how it goes. Everything is fine until it isn't. Which is why it is so stupid when the left claims that Americans have no basis to want guns for protection from government because the current government is not tyrannical.

Truth.

Only the USA has the kind of government it has. Everywhere else there is some sort of moral standard to at least APPEAR to uphold while in government. In Europe for example, tradition and moral values are rooted in a history that is literally thousands of years old. This is the reason (((they))) have focused on bringing migrants first and foremost to Europe. The people were fairly monolithic in their ways, until you brought destructively foreign hordes of "refugees". Their very nice systems are holding, for now.

Guns? What would civilians need guns for? Weapons should be very tightly controlled. The state must keep its monopoly on violence lest everything turns to chaos.

And now they have the most tyrannical government of any first world country.

They were, more or less, with decent socialized medicine that was behaving within reason - before the scamdemic.
