Wrong

I know you tards like to call it "social ownership," but "social" is government.

It requires no more government than any other law

Democratic Socialism is communism. Change my mind

social ownership doesnt mean you get to own or have a say in how anything works. its just verbal sleight of hand.

FALSE

Man it’s strange watching this debate. Been a long time since I’ve actually been privy to a leftist debating in real time

Stop pretending you with your elementary level definition of socialism know more about what constitutes my own ideology than I do

anyone watching the live stream of Trump meeting the bankers?

e l e m e n t a r eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Socialism ABSOLUTELY requires dramatic expansion of government power, and subsequently a reduction in YOUR civil rights, SPECIFICALLY the ownership of private property.

You can argue that socialism always results is government control, but socialism itself is not necessarily government control

I blame all eu issues cos of Germany <:TrumpDisgust:624681485525319681> @Ostland

yes it is necessarily government action, control, force, implementation

@dairypillows is there a government in democratic socialism?

Every SINGLE time socialism has been tried (over 100 times) it has resulted in a tyranny and failed.

Tbf ur ideology is based on the elementary understanding of a fake idea of “socialism” being propagated by people with a giant platform like Bernie Sanders and AOC

@LC Germany, the UK, Sweden, etc. All fit the actual definition of socialism

Those are capitalist countries, you massive walnut

@Doc Jinzo, PhD in Trap Negation propagated by *checks notes* the dictionary

@LC

Which is socialism

Read up on codetermination laws

False

Each one of those countries allows private business ownership

"False, my daddy told me socialistsm is the evil gubmint comin to take my shotgun an my beer and I won't be told otherwise"

They do have lots of socialistic policies though. None that I agree with obviously

“a system or condition of society in which the means of production are owned and controlled by the state”


From the Miriam Webster dictionary

Not the people. The *state*

The idea of “democratic” socialism is fake

Ad hominem is not a valid argument, and is also an indicator that you have none.

not all authoritarian policies are socialist. but all of socialist ideology relies on authoritarianism.
