What percentage of posters with socialist avatars...

[Leinad]

Agreed, most of them. Some of them obviously actually are, but a lot are probably just looking for some lefty cred. Obviously the number of people with maroon states/countries next to them is far greater than those who are technically socialists (and obviously this isn't the Republican definition of "socialist" as "anyone to the left of me economically"--Obama is not in any way a socialist, people).

I am a dues paying member of SPUSA, Dunno how fake that makes me.

You're the 25-50% who isn't a fake socialist.

I've been asking for a Social Democratic avatar, to no avail.

There's only so many colors possible in the spectrum; you need to draw the line somewhere, and I think they've done a fairly good job at that.
