I’ve long said that if the left is going to succeed in this country, we need to abandon leftist vocabulary and translate our policies into Freedom© terms. Saying shit like “proletariat” and “means of production” just triggers an automatic rejection response from the majority of Americans. McCarthyist propaganda was very successful.

These are popular policies, we just have to phrase them with enough 'Murica Patriotism to let people consider them for their merits instead of dismissing them because “that’s socialism, and socialism is bad because reasons”.
