Is Ibrahim Traore a socialist? (lemmygrad.ml)

I know he's called himself a Sankarist, but is he a socialist? His actions would seem to align with what a socialist would do in his position. He recently talked about a "progressive people's revolution", if that means anything.

It's good that Sankarists are being employed across the state. My fear is that he gets merked by a lucky assassin and the revolution just instantly folds without a figurehead.

I dont wanna lean into great man theory but it isnt unheard of for a single assassination to largely kill the momentum of a movement immediately.
