Its not like this has ever been concealed. Joe Biden even suggests that its patriotic to be a socialist.

I'm trying to think of the last democrat presidential nominee that did not have this viewpoint and coming up with a blank.

Its exactly what his base wants to hear and as almost half the voters stand to be the recipients of other people's money its music to their ears as they do not seem to understand that this is not as sweet a deal as it seems. They may get a "promise" but it may cost them their job.
