This so-called "fear mongering" isn't directed to the broad US population, it is targeting the preexisting bias of lowest common denominator target audience of the right.

And he doesn't even have the conviction to make the communism fully automated, nor luxury, nor gay. What a disgrace!

I propose a new rule: if you're American and wealthy, you don't get to talk about communism. At all.

I might make an exception for wealthy Americans with an education in politics or economics, or both.

This is why they figured out in Lakota culture many years ago that it's not safe to use sarcasm in your language. Some people might not get it and that makes them feel left out. Others may think dumb things are true so it can only make your whole culture dumber and unable to know what is true or misinformation. The entire sarcastic subtype of comedy is basically just not done, condoned, or laughed at which I think it's pretty awesome
