Socialism is when wikipedia says you have a public option for healthcare.
The goal of democratic socialism is to achieve socialist goals of equality while opposing socialist ideologies.
Bro what does this even mean? Like I know what they mean by it, but how do these think tanks write this drivel and expect to be taken seriously?
Well, you see, the people just have to vote for socialist policy hard enough and it will happen, even with a neoliberal-fascist coalition government.
It's a bit like saying "The goal of Postum is to achieve coffee's goals of pleasant flavour and mental stimulation while opposing caffeine." At first glance it doesn't seem any more disingenuous than other types of hot-beverage advertising copy, but what's left unsaid is that Postum has never achieved either of those things, no one with inside knowledge expects it to, and its core audience doesn't seem to care.
uh but you can decaffeinate coffee
it's more like saying "our goal is to achieve the pleasant flavour of coffee while opposing the process of agriculture"
the fact that I’m at risk of seeing a 14 year old’s opinion at any point in my day is a human rights violation
i’m 17

this but unironically
The 14 year old can learn. I’ll take a stupid oppinion from someone who it actually makes sense for them to believe it because they are young and developing over another upper middle class gen X weirdo with a boat spouting the most insane stupid dribble I’ve ever heard
For sure. I don’t think this dude’s irredeemable or anything just needs to grow up and learn more. I thought very similar things at 17.
We all did for sure. And at least young folks fucking listen if you give them a proper tone and shit.
I’m weird tho I’d speak to a thousand teens over a single boat owning conservative over 45
Not that weird. Teenagers likely already had it rough and are only going to suffer more as they get older.
The boat owner has already placed their bet and won. Very hard to convince someone like that to change the game
Usa :military industrial socialism
France: pedo socialism with racist characteristics
Uk:
Turkey: denialist/revisionist socialism
the absolute dental performance of UK ''''''''''''''''''socialism'''''''''''''''''
I mean, Erdogan tried to abolish the lyra (value form) by doing currency manipulation
No, last year Erdogan tried to do currency manipulation in order to devalue the Lyra to attract foreign investors. However, the effect is that there were no investment and it actually devaluated the Lyra and people in the country can`t buy shit with their wages.
tbh i wouldn't trust most western communists to reeducate anyone
It's true. I regret to inform you that none of my students have attained CHIM
No it’s a literal child. Like, not child (derogatory), child (minor).
Portugal pretending to be a libertarian paradise to get crypto bros money and using it to be socialist would be the best bit of all time.
I feel like "re" education is excessively generous to the knowledge base of the average westoid.
