@Deleted User social democracy is about transitoning the economy

from capitalism to a socialist system

https://www.britannica.com/topic/social-democracy

Bernie is a social democrat

So the main difference between socialism and social democracy is the way they approach the economic system

social democracy works within a capitalist system

Sort of like how anarchists and communists can agree that we don’t government but they don’t agree on how to approach it

socialism is a different system

it's so easy to get into semantics haha

Social democracy then has nothing to do with socialism ????

social democracy is about the transition towards socialism

socdems are pretty gay

>social democracy works within a capitalist system

fucking bro

yes

They use capitalism to move towards socialism?

no

They favour government ownership of the MoP.

Social democrats are ideologically socialists of sort.

Social democracy is just a means

a social democrat is something that supports those means

most socialists are social democrats

Jeremy Corbyn is a social democrat

Corbyn seems like a full blown commie

>_<
