It the “socialists” at that particular event are anything like the “socialists” I met back on campus, I would be willing to bet that “socialites” is a far more accurate term.
Just like you have your Limousine Liberals, your Gucci Communists, and your Volvo Socialists (interchangeable with Vulva Socialites).
Careful. We have a Volvo. It was great until all the insulation fell off the wiring in the headlight assembly. Cheap subcontractors I guess.
