I’m not saying it’s good or bad

Just think people should try to understand that it’s way more grey than black and white

Most things in life are shades of grey

California became hell because of socialism

“Socialism is when the government forces me to wear a mask!”

50 shades of grey??

people get socialism confused with public welfare..they are different things. if you oppose public welfare and high taxes, thats fine..but its not socialism

i read the books

& watch the movies

Due to socialism

Do the workers own the “diverse” tech companies in there? Fuck, they don’t even have proper worker unions in there

Just stupid diversity nonsense

isn't socialism the redistribution of wealth?

socialism is when the government controls the means of production

ah k

that means, the state owns all businesses, all factories, all services

It depends on the variant of it they’re running

The forefathers would be mad at America right now

so then how is communism different to socialism?

You’re talking about communism, not socialism

in a socialist economy, you would not be allowed to set up your own business. not even a lemonade stall. it has to be owned and mandated by the state.

Capitalism is free market...the market is not entirely free over here yet we’re the example of the capitalist country.

Stop the blanket terming 😂

Communism and socialism are economic policies

There r different types of capitalism

ok

communism doesnt exist in practice, its more of an aspiration

It can’t exist because of individual greed

Countries such as Sweden are social democracies, not socialist

communism means no private property, no currency, all means of production are controlled by the democratic vote of the people. The is the Karl Marx communism.

Personally I think a lot of the problems we have today are because we were too lose on the economy and let big business run amok, they all sold out to China and gained too much lobbying power stateside

I don't think they are social democracies though

Trump called for tariffs

And I liked that

Obama sus

Republicans wouldn’t dare call for tariffs before trump and he made it an issue
