text: Parsons, I have never seen anyone as confused as you are about what Socialists represent. They certainly do not represent prosperous establishment classes in any sense. Or in any nation. They are constantly the ones fighting the rich to get higher wages for workers, better health care, family leave for mothers and fathers who have children, pensions, etc, etc, etc. 
  Neither has a single socialist to my knowledge ever refused to acknowledge the menace of Islamic terrorism. They just don't agree with the right-wingers that seem to believe that all Muslims are terrorists because a few are. 
  Get educated.
