    I think he meant it’s wild we’ve been conditioned to not even think about government takeover of publicly funded assets. Like it still feels like the nuclear option even to Americans who believe they are socialists. Not that your comment was insufficient. I understand why you would feel defensive, the Internet can be a mean place.

      If that was the intent, I apologise for comment.

      Conditioned to being attacked or trolled all the time is a good way of putting it. It’s rare that sense is wrong, sadly
