I have known that I was a socialist as long as I have known I what a socialist was. I often covered it up. Whenever someone said something against it, I would agree wholeheartedly... Is it normal?

My first thought is no, usually a 10 year old does not have such intricate political beliefs but I find it very plausible on second thought. I'm sure if you were to ask a 10 year old "Do you think that the government should provide substantial sustenance for the elderly, handicapped and less fortunate?" Or "Do you think people who run businesses that scam and steal should be arrested and punished?", "Do you think the rich should help the poor?" Etc. In a less articulated manner of course, they'd probably agree to it. Most of us are taught, growing up, to help others and to treat others fairly and while I am not a socialist myself, this is the core intent of socialism (from my understanding).
Were you really a socialist? Or were you just parroting your parent's beliefs to please them?
I don't think it's normal. What kind of "normal" 10 year old gets into politics?

The way that society worked intrigued me at that age. It may be traced back to the fact that we read the Giver by Lois Lowry in school when I was 9 years old.
DISCLAIMER: I am not 10 right now.
9 came into contact with an extra terrestrial civilization...
Can anyone say loony tunes?

You're an idiot posing as a pseudo-intellectual.
I'm terribly sorry, Sir Nomen Nudum, I do not speak Urban.
Would you please rephrase your comment in English?
How much time do you spend each day trying to get other people to speak in the manner you prefer?
Also why do you believe that you are the one to decide which manner of speech is acceptable? Why do you believe your judgement to be so superior to everyone else's?
Also what is wrong with saying prism?
Answer to first question: I spend far too much time, asking people repeatedly, to speak properly. There are very important reasons for this, as I have already outlined many of them.
Some people, however, stubbornly cling on to Archaic beliefs and / or stubbornly refuse to improve themselves, thus creating corruption in language and / or stagnation in society.
Answer to second question: I am the one, because I am the person who made a very important 'discovery' about our Universe, and subsequently have come into contact with another very much more advanced extra-terrestrial Civilisation.
I freely admit, firstly that I too was incorrect, and secondly that since I'm also human, that I also can be in error. I also freely admit that, I myself need to improve communicatively, but this is difficult to do when many others habitually use language incorrectly and / or spuriously and / or haphazardly.
Answer to third question: There is nothing wrong with using the term 'prism'. ONLY terms derived using the Hellenic (Greek) SUFFIXES from istēs or ismos.
