Those small govt Republicans really, really, dislike Communist countries -- structured as democratic republics. They hate federal subsidies -- federal, referring to the republic or central govt.

Both sides of the discussion ultimately use the same methods, but with trivial differences, in their rationale. That might tell you that the narrative is being controlled.
