No, he’s not. He’s talking about supposedly-socialist people in the USA who idealize vaguely socialism related countries like Russia or China, and think they would have a better life in these countries.

The Russian Federation isn’t socialist in any way. China has a Socialist Market Economy, that’s true, but nobody idolizes Russia nor do they believe they would live a better life there.

That’s not socialists though. We call them tankies as an umbrella term.

I agree, but I believe they don’t like being called like that and they think they are defending socialism.
