If the US becomes a socialist country during the Great Depression (a lot like in the althistory story “Reds! A Revolutionary Timeline”), would you like the country more?
Probably. Again, I oppose the “country” part of “socialist country”. And frankly, a “socialist” project that adopts the AmeriKKKan flag, i.e. positioning itself as somehow an extension of the AmeriKKKan project, is not a project worth pissing on.
What flag do you have the mind for a socialist America? Maybe the kind of flag like the UASR in “Reds!”? I really like that flag - it DOESN’T rely on the red-white-blue, stars and stripes combination like some of the other althistory stories about a socialist US. Here, the combination of colors is red, black and gold, NOT to mention to the hammer-compass-gear-wheat symbol on the centre of the flag
I mean yeah I’d be cool with that being the flag of a commune, although I don’t think we necessarily need to have an “America-scale” single anarchist community. Like my vision of post-US North America looks more like complex networks of autonomous local collectives.

You prefer the term “socialist society”? I assume you’re more of an anarchist
Yeah I’m an anarcho-communist.

That would be rad, but that’s not the timeline we live in
