Which also doesn't make him a socialist

@aymem No, he thinks Norway is socialism and uses that as his model

@Orwell in a white town, you'd supposedly be the ones making small businesses, or you could go and make an ACTUAL self reliant commune, or become a mormon

its just a word used to appeal to the debt infested college liberal

The right really needs to abandon the "but it's in the name!" style of thinking

We don't call North Korea a republic even though it's in the name

Democratic Republic of Korea

@The Big Oof Norway has very high levels of socialisation, i think that's the point he makes, eitherway, from what i've heard him say, he seems to understand socialism, also you can't expect someone to genuinely speak his mind while trying to get to office, or he would get branded a communist

No

Dude

No

trump is le epic jew puppet

its just a tool to get votes to support the jew cause

nah, he wants banks, schools, meds, food, and housing all to be "civil rights"/nationalized that only leaves hookers and babers as the "free market"

le 4d chess

Norway has freer markets than the United States, they just have a large welfare system.

The two are often confused @aymem

They are not the same thing

@The Big Oof North Korea is a republic, i mean yeah i guess you could make the point it's dynastic/monarchic, but that's more "they need to say it themselves"

le monarchy

@The Big Oof ngl... i genuinely have never understand what people have meant by using the metric of "free" to markets, tf does that rly mean?

Norwegian businesses are deregulated?

Usually it refers to market regulation/intervention

I hate trump

Bye

good argument @Alan Grand

jew puppets

nobody is saying Norway is a planned economy, but when it comes to socialised structures, it just is.

this is a debate server dude @Alan Grand

Okay, I got it wrong, it's not Norway that has freer markets

It's Sweden

Sweden has freer markets than the United States

i don't think it particularly matters ben

It matters when explaining socialism to Space Bird

Too many on the right think socialism = gibs

it doesn't because i'm pretty sure you'd view a mutualist as a free market society, same thing

@The Big Oof i define socialism as 2 things redistribution (gibbs) and government ownership/control of industry

That's a pretty bad definition of socialism

be it directly or indirectly

my point is one socialisation of state structures in Norway and also it's public entities, it doesn't change anything
