    Socialism with kid-diddling characteristics

    Really it's "socialist economy with a significant emphasis on individual rights, e.g., free speech." It doesn't sound too bad until you (paraphrasing Parenti here) contemplate the difficulties of actually running a state, confronting capitalist attacks on your state, handling reactionary groups within your state, etc. Basically "do you let the fascists publish their newspaper the day after the revolution?"

      It's often a superficially leftist label slapped over "DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DOOOOOOOOOOOO" no-veggies-at-dinner-no-bedtimes attitude.
