I think we all get it; not wanting to get shot in school is "socialism", valuing human lives over profit margins or confederate statues is "socialism", caring about the environment is "socialism", not seeing billionaires as man-angel hybrids is "socialism", getting vaccinated is "socialism", and having the toilet paper over the roll instead of under is definitely "socialism"...
But are there other words they can use for things they don't like?

Don't dance around it, don't squabble over definitions, don't expect them to do better out of decency.
Punch straight at the talking point. Repeat it so often that whenever a Republican says it the mental image they evoke is a horse lifting its tail and the horsedump dropping out.
