"Maybe socialism isn't equal to Marxism, but I have yet to find a major policy or philosophy on which they disagree. In America, communists evolved into socialists when the historical baggage became a little too difficult to carry around. Most have now become "progressives." They change their names often, like someone who writes bad checks for a living, and for much the same reasons.

[from Tony's second link]

So, perhaps RL could explain what major policy issues differences [in America politics- among those that claim they are socialists, communists, Marxism, or "progressives"]. And therefore proving the extent in which Tom is wrong.

Btw, Tony has an excuse for his ignorance of American politics.
