Absolutely. Just don’t use that word. The propaganda is so goddamn ingrained in the American psyche we might as well just call it something else and try to bypass that fight.
The freedom to eat, the freedom to earn a fair day’s pay for a fair day’s honest work, the freedom to afford a house, the freedom from wall street usury, the freedom patriotically build secure and supportive communities, freedom healthcare, protecting the landscape of the greatest country on earth for all of America’s generations to come, etc.
Loads of ways to spin free market socialism, take your pick.
On the contrary, we should use the words Socialism and Communism loudly and proudly. The less stigamtized these words are the easier the fight for progress.
The Red Scare never ended, it’s important to directly combat anti-socialist sentiment because you are going to be labeled a Communist even if you call yourself a mild progressive.

Hand companies over to their workers, call it supercapitalism, and Americans will eat that shit up

“true capitalism” or some shit
Disparage actual capitalism for not being capitalist enough, and do an Indiana Jones hot swap for the actual end goal of worker ownership.

Or rebrand socialism and push it in a more efficient way.
Why rebrand what already exists? What way would be more “efficient?”
I don’t agree on your tanky communism, ML. Go away
What’s wrong with Marxism?

I really don’t know what’s prompting you to go ballistic like this, you might want to log off for a bit.
Rebrand it as patriotism.
