In response to that specific question, she might have just described what socialism is and why we need it. She could also have pointed out why the framing of the question is bullshit.

I’m not like shocked or shook by what she said, but I do question the agitational value of being asked about socialism and then effectively pointing to more capitalism as the way forward.

She’s supposed to play the State Anthem of the Soviet Union and then slap Anderson Cooper right across his Vanderbilt face.
