DU seems to have a lot of progressives and liberals. A lot of people don't seem to really get the whole picture of socialism. Bernie might be partly to blame because he really brought it down to the smallest easiest thing. Overall he did good but maybe simplified it a little too much. And honestly socialists disagree with each other a lot too. This Harriet Tubman quote is great though. It makes the point that many people don't recognize their own conditions of oppression. That's still true.
