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?

GG @Spitfire, you just advanced to level 1!

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

democratic socialism is non-revolutionary in nature

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

just 1 party

yea how is that democratic
