proved that socialism
was cancer
Democratic socialism can easily be classed as "not actual socialism" when compared to lenin, trotsky, and stalin, and marx's original beliefs, due to how different it is and how it has degenerated.
Frankly, I do not blame the socialists or communists for classing it as such.
democratic socialism is still heavy restriction
on capitalism
and state takes a major place
democratic socialism is still cancerous to me and the right
but nothing topples the many variances of communism
Though that is about it, civil liberties are increased majorly, former crimes are decriminalized, and the state is granted much more power.
And not to mention, unions and workers, do not gain that much more power over their jobs.
The thing is I believe socialism has a lot more to do with labor and capital relation rather than the ideas people have created of it somehow meaning everyone is equal or the state does everything
social equality
is a futile goal
pointless
and impossible
Equality is a false god.
why the fuck don't you focus on making your middle class wealthy
quit whining
@Your Favorite Martian =3 Now, getting back on track, how do you plan on maintaining and managing social equality?
(Be right back, I have to do something)
I do currently believe though that centrally planned economies like the USSR were massively inefficient
From what I've read socialism isn't really based on "equality" like everyone doesn't make the same money or have the same wealth
But rather people are paid based on the amount of labor they put into a product I think
The problem is it's all kinda based around this idea of the labor theory of value which I don't exactly understand
Fully yet
Which is why I'm tryna learn before I make my mind up about somethin
The modern middle class is the proletariat
the middle/lower class proletariat worker is the majority in America
Back.
@Your Favorite Martian =3 A centrally planned economy can work, but only in very small communities.
Which I why I think I can get some of the understanding of anarchists and anarcho syndicalists.
Was that the goal of pol pot?
I wonder.
@Deleted User Out of curiosity, who is James Mason you spoke of?
Never heard of him?
No, google search brings up some actor
And I know quite few fringe fascist ideologists
I don't blame you, a person would have to have an above basic level of understandings of fascism in order to even know him, he wrote the book seige, you should look into him, he is quite the interesting personality.
The book seige, is about as important to modern fascism as mein kampf is.
