Social Democracy

ˈsō-shəl ˌdeməˈkrasē

A political system that balances capitalism with a strong commitment to social justice and welfare. It aims to regulate the market economy to prevent exploitation, reduce inequality, and guarantee fundamental rights like universal healthcare, education, and workers' protections. It believes democracy isn't just about voting but also about ensuring everyone has the real means to participate in society. Social Democracy tries to create a fairer society without dismantling capitalism entirely, promoting gradual reform over revolution.

You're a threat to everyone tho.
Journalist: Are you a Communist?

Olof Palme: No, I am a Social Democrat.

Journalist: Are you a Socialist?

Olof Palme: Again, I am a Social Democrat.

Journalist: Soo, a Capitalist?

Olof Palme: Dumbass, I am apart of Social Democracy, I am in a Social Democratic party, and that means I am a Social Democrat.

Socially Decline

Social decline, let’s say it’s spring break. A whole week you can spend chilling with your friends. You cant see your friends. One’s phone broke, you don’t know the other’s phone number, etc. You’re online friends are doing chores, on the plane, perhaps playing with their sibling, or you ran out of ideas to talk to them about.. but you still wanna talk to someone, yet you can’t. So you just play games and eat by yourself all day and do anything to keep yourself busy. You are socially declining and are turning into a hobbit.
Person 1: “Man, spring break was so fun!”
Person 2: “Yeah, I got a little bored though.”
Person 3: “i ate and slept and played video games all day. i was so socially declined.”

socialism

when the government taxes businesses and corporations to make sure they wont build factories to create jobs. where the government trains and pays people to murder your opposition.
where the government steals all the money from doctors, and inventors, businessman, and rich people to pay poor people not to go to work, or to work jobs that don't actually do anything. when the government pays people to make 5% of the population perpetually poor.
the socialist matrix is to overeducate the middle class, overtax the rich, and to prevent the poor from going to school, or having enough money to actually afford to be employed.
this government is based on the idea of converting to communism - to force doctors to stay, to force doctors to work, and to make everyone poor thus ensuring the only reason people go to work, is so they don't end up in jail.
Canada is a capitalist society, the government pretend's its based on socialism, the idea that if you force people to be poor, you can increase education, and immigration!

Social Engineering

Often a tactic used by Team Avolition during their Minecraft Griefing videos. Rather that simply destroying a building they tear the entire structure down, put down dirt & plant saplings so that the moderators and admins cannot roll back the damage.
“No don’t leave the house, that’s a bad idea. What you do is a little social engineering instead and tear the house to the ground, put dirt & plant saplings so that they can’t tell where it was and they can’t use Big Brother to roll back the damage because it won’t be able to tell what was built and what was naturally there.” -Storm_Surge

Social Commandeering

(Civilian) Social Commandeering (AKA Social Hijacking)

A phenomenon where individuals, under the guise of social righteousness, attempt to seize control of someone's work, career, or reputation. These groups believe their moral or social agendas should take precedence and use social pressure to enforce this belief. On the internet, they often target artists, podcasters, or other creators, demanding that they endorse specific agendas or censor certain content. This practice forces creators to speak with a voice other than their own, undermining their original goals and leading to severe repercussions, such as public shaming or career damage, if resisted. This can be seen as a form of reverse 'Virtue Signaling,' where the pressure to conform is imposed externally rather than expressed personally.
"After releasing a new virtual art exhibition, the host faced Social Commandeering when a vocal group demanded the removal of an artist they found controversial." "Wow, even here people are so risk averse!"

social justice

Social justice is double speak for justifying socialism. The true meanings of words are hidden so well by the socialists that the casual observer has little reason to question them. So convinced of the meaning of social justice, social justice warriors will resort to the use of force in their quest for justice(?).
Do you know social justice has many meanings?
