Ehh
I meannnnnnn
What do you mean by "Democratic socialism"?
There are so many definitions
Or how about we start off by asking why it is you think democratic socialism is the way to go?
Well
If you manage the economy right it is a viable solution
And it breeds nationalism
..............
and happiness
That too
top ten secret socialists
wont tell u
If you know how to govern, you can have a government that function regardless of status
capitalism, communism, fascism
w/e you want
@Gerry aight ill give it a crack
but you have the entire history of the media and almost all public and private institutions against socialism
which means most of the population is brainwashed into thinking socialism is evil/bad/doesnt work
so if everyone is brainwashed to think its bad and the institutions in place keep it that way, but DemSoc is non-revolutionary in nature, how will it ever be elected into majority power?
(i dont think it can be)
so if you want a DemSoc economy, you'll need to have a revolution
which is fundamentally not democratic socialism
does this mean Marxism is the way to go?
GG @Green Syndicalism, you just advanced to level 1!
of course not
the endgoal of most Marxisms is communism
and i dont think you need to really be convinced of why that is a bad idea
@Green Syndicalism its evil because history has shown that
okay you dont understand democratic socialism then
thats pretty simple
do you think the USSR was democratic?
do you think the USSR was market socialism?
yes, if you consider 1 party elections democratic
why would you consider a single election over 80 years democratic
not a single election
many elections
