It’s always the proletariat in control until socialism fails

2019-01-07 21:49:10 UTC  

Then somehow it wasn’t

2019-01-07 21:49:22 UTC  

It is squares and triangles

2019-01-07 21:49:24 UTC  

? not making that point here

2019-01-07 21:49:27 UTC  

Hence why it’s state or worker control

2019-01-07 21:49:38 UTC  

explain that hence please haha

2019-01-07 21:49:45 UTC  

what is that if then logic

2019-01-07 21:49:54 UTC  

Whether or not socialism can work or would work is a different topic

2019-01-07 21:50:00 UTC  

yeah

2019-01-07 21:50:06 UTC  

A socialist economy is an economy where the MoP is controlled by the state it workers

2019-01-07 21:50:11 UTC  

we're just defining socialism I guess, not arguing for or against it

2019-01-07 21:50:18 UTC  

by the workers

2019-01-07 21:50:21 UTC  

maybe by the state, maybe not

2019-01-07 21:50:35 UTC  

If the state owns the MoP

2019-01-07 21:50:38 UTC  

It is a socialist economy

2019-01-07 21:50:40 UTC  

simple as that

2019-01-07 21:50:50 UTC  

It cannot be capitalist or communist

2019-01-07 21:50:53 UTC  

It has to be socialist

2019-01-07 21:51:03 UTC  

no that is a state run economy

2019-01-07 21:51:06 UTC  

He might be right actually

2019-01-07 21:51:07 UTC  

we have that definition for a reason

2019-01-07 21:51:08 UTC  

Which is socialist

2019-01-07 21:51:29 UTC  

I can't find this definition anywhere

2019-01-07 21:51:42 UTC  

I mean even people like comrade hakim say this stuff

2019-01-07 21:51:56 UTC  

And those guys are proper socialists

2019-01-07 21:52:00 UTC  

this goes back to my earlier point that people have used socialism in all kinds of settings

2019-01-07 21:52:09 UTC  

maybe we just have different definitions

2019-01-07 21:52:11 UTC  

and that's ok I guess

2019-01-07 21:52:22 UTC  

yeah but it doesn’t mean they’re right

2019-01-07 21:52:24 UTC  

For example

2019-01-07 21:52:26 UTC  

I just think that it makes more sense in describing this phenomena to describe "socialism" as needing to be socialized

2019-01-07 21:52:30 UTC  

Sweden etc are not socialist

2019-01-07 21:52:35 UTC  

no, they aren't

2019-01-07 21:52:38 UTC  

I agree

2019-01-07 21:52:50 UTC  

I don't know that there is a modern socialist economy

2019-01-07 21:52:55 UTC  

There is

2019-01-07 21:53:00 UTC  

I think Sid is right actually

2019-01-07 21:53:02 UTC  

Can we go to a pictureschat

2019-01-07 21:53:04 UTC  

I googled it lmao
