I think many people are supporting this socialist ideas because, apart from ignorance, there's a widespread "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" mentality, which is another of the tricks used by the system to ensnare us. People are being led to believe that all these engineered economic crises, all these wars, etc. are the result of a "free market" type of system (uhm, this isn't the free market...), therefore the solution is "good" socialsim or communism etc. Likewise for people who claim they're against, for instance, "globalism" and "internationalism" so the solution is authoritarian nationalism....these are all false dychotomies created to divide and rule the people, and they led to the same disastrous results. By the way, just see who financed and backed up the Soviet revolution and you'll understand how this game is really palyed...

P.S.: the Soviet constitution is creepingly similar to the Italian (my "country") constitution...
