Tell that to the Republicans who have used that term as an insult at every turn. No one is banning the term, but you get the reaction that most would expect.
Frankly, it seems a bit disingenuous to claim not to understand what was objectionable about the way you brought that up and the way you used the term. The term ("socialist government owned") was even redundant in your sentence if all you meant was the literal meaning. It was put there to stir up the pot, and now you are complaining that it had the expected effect.
