He's a real nice dude that's how

2019-02-20 22:13:07 UTC  

Heyo

2019-02-20 22:13:12 UTC  

i just think the facts are being overtly ignored here that's all. theres no other way to describe sander's political stance than socialist

2019-02-20 22:13:21 UTC  

Do you not know the difference between Social Democracy and Socialism?

2019-02-20 22:13:33 UTC  

Sanders is more like an average Euro-style social democrat than a socialist

2019-02-20 22:13:35 UTC  

Sanders supports the Nordic model

2019-02-20 22:13:51 UTC  

None of the Nordic countries are socialist

2019-02-20 22:14:19 UTC  

The Nordic countries are pretty diverse politically

2019-02-20 22:14:35 UTC  

literally the definition of social democracy includes the phrase "a socialist system of government" achieved by democratic means which just means the people decide to be socialist

2019-02-20 22:14:39 UTC  

Socialist means the economy is mostly a command economy

2019-02-20 22:14:43 UTC  

Like Norway vs Denmark vs Sweden

2019-02-20 22:15:04 UTC  

That is misleading

2019-02-20 22:15:11 UTC  

Here is the correct defination:

2019-02-20 22:15:13 UTC  

"Social democracy is a political, social and economic ideology that supports economic and social interventions to promote social justice within the framework of a liberal democratic polity and capitalist economy."

Democratic socialism is socialism that’s democratic

2019-02-20 22:15:34 UTC  

Sanders wants America to be more like the Nordic countries

2019-02-20 22:15:38 UTC  

Which are not Socialist

2019-02-20 22:15:44 UTC  

Social democracy is democratic socially-minded capitalism

2019-02-20 22:16:40 UTC  

socialism that's decided by the people. people decide to be socialist. social democracy is a gradual transition to 100% flat out socialism

2019-02-20 22:17:32 UTC  

That is misleading

2019-02-20 22:17:40 UTC  

LITERALLY the definition!

2019-02-20 22:17:41 UTC  

But Sanders wants a Nordic Model

2019-02-20 22:17:48 UTC  

Which is not socialist

2019-02-20 22:18:00 UTC  

ehehe I googled name, it say socialism. google never wrong.

2019-02-20 22:18:08 UTC  

Lol

2019-02-20 22:18:15 UTC  

Wikipedia has the better defination

2019-02-20 22:18:52 UTC  

Sanders wants a Nordic Model

2019-02-20 22:18:54 UTC  

wowwwwwwwwwwww. I can't believe I am talking to "conservatives" who support the process of becoming socialist. how is this possible

2019-02-20 22:18:57 UTC  

Tackle this @Lemmesmash

2019-02-20 22:19:01 UTC  

Ok guys, there are two separate definitions, according to Merriam-Webster

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/536759048985640993/547905039990128650/image0.png

2019-02-20 22:19:01 UTC  

wikipedia is a fuckin meme

2019-02-20 22:19:09 UTC  

Since when do we support Socialism?

2019-02-20 22:19:16 UTC  

So we were just using different definitions

2019-02-20 22:19:26 UTC  

Simple misunderstanding

2019-02-20 22:19:34 UTC  

That's all modern leftism is

2019-02-20 22:19:40 UTC  

its literally the same definition, transition from capitalism to socialism which is being decided by the people

2019-02-20 22:19:42 UTC  

It's just changing definitions around

2019-02-20 22:19:46 UTC  

Definitely not

2019-02-20 22:19:49 UTC  

Sanders wants a Nordic Model. This is not socialist.
