You can call it whatever you want, but you're using semantics to skate around the fact that she wants to steal property from some people and give it to others (equity, everyone ending up in the same place). I don't really give a shit what you want to call the violation of property rights. The principle evil remains.

You can't have a society where everyone has property rights AND everyone ends up in the same place. There will always be those who achieve more and earn more. The only possible way to achieve (in theory) what she claims to want IS communism.

I consider Trump a mixed-economist with socialist tendencies, but I don't hear him saying that the government should make everyone exactly the same, which really means to reduce everyone down to the lowest common denominator in the interest of 'equity.'

You're trying to use terms as a distraction from the actual issues at hand. She's absolutely a socialist, and her ideas could only be serious pursued under a communist regime. Otherwise, producers wouldn't go for it.
