Most, though, didn't actually know what it meant. They were scared of the word Socialism, despite that Socialism is how we maintain our libraries, our roads and bridges, our fire department, our local co-ops, and even the North Dakota state bank.

Socialism is how we can improve health care and how we can fight the unjust income/wealth inequality in our country.

It's apparent from his letter published online Aug. 18, Garrett Boyer has no idea what Socialism is, and it cannot be more apparent than when Boyer makes the completely unfounded non sequitur to call the Nazis a Socialist group.

Nazis are Socialist like Obama is Kenyan, like Trump is "presidential," or like the KKK is Christian; we know better. None of the Socialists I know are Nazis and none of the Nazis I know about are Socialist, there is a reason for this.

In particular, us Democratic Socialists of America are not intolerant of other people or other religions based on a false sense of superiority, we embrace comrades from a large variety of the world population, we fight alongside our Jewish, LGBT, immigrant, refugee, Muslim, etc. friends with equal fervor.

The Nazis want us all dead. I dare you to talk to any one of us in the Red River Valley DSA and you'll find absolutely no reason to ever think we are anything like the Nazis you saw in Charlottesville.

We spent the past couple of days organizing against Chris Berg's POV show for giving a platform to Nazis like Pete Tefft. A few weeks ago, many of us did our part to help settle unpaid school lunch debt for families in Moorhead. So, how exactly is it possible that we could be the same as Nazis? It's not.

Nazis aren't organizing against Nazis, we are. Nazis aren't working to help their community at-large, we are. We are Socialist, we fight for the people, listen to the rest of us in the Red River Valley Democratic Socialists of America, join us.
