Socialism

Exactly what the u.s. needs. But unfortunately various greedy, conservative politicians brainwash society into thinking that socialism is wrong, when really it would benefit the majority of Americans. And no socialism is not by any means fascism. Keep in mind that socialism is an economic system, not a form of government. In fact, socialism is the exact opposite of fascism. you can think of it as taking democracy to the next level. Because if your form of government is already a democracy-(which most socialist countries are) and you have a socialist economic system, not only do you allow freedom of speech and the right to elect representatives into office but you allow your people to decide over certain aspects of the economy. because the government controls all business and the government is controlled by the people, the people have a say in the price of certain goods and services, as well as the salaries of certain occupations. Plus socialism taxes people based on how much they earn and uses the revenue to provide everyone with really nice benefits.

I live in a socialism country. If I am handicaped, it won't be a huge pain in the ass to accquire social security benefits. I have decent pension funds from my job and I will be able to retire at a reasonable age. My health care is payed for mostly by the government and my entire country excels in public education. I enjoy free public transportation and a nice house. The rich have no more political power than I do and they aren't able to monopolize all of the wealth and fuck up the economy for everyone else.

socialism

Socialism is the same as Communism.

Communism is Socialism, Socialism is Communism.

Some people seem to believe they are different, but they are actually the same. I just don't care about either enough to differentiate between them.

Communism, social studies, socialites, communities, and communion are all very similar.

American democratic socialism

What the rest of the world calls social democracy. Much like American football, we’ve created our own definition. After years of political scientists cringing at misuse of the word, people are throwing their hands up, and accepting that in the US, socialism means something completely different than it does literally anywhere else.

Person 1: I thought socialists wanted to “seize the means of production.”
Person 2: Bernie advocates American democratic socialism. He doesn’t want any of that.

Socialising

Partaking in the consumption of alcohol with humans you have no desire to actually converse with.

Where was I? Socialising with some of the locals.

Socialist

Also known as scum.
A socialist is a parasite who believes in progress and other such scams.
They're often atheists or hide their hate for God under the disguise of scientism.
What this is really hiding is self-hate accumulated after years of unsuccessful attempts to contribute something, anything of real value to this world that people, someone, anyone would be ready to pay for.

Adolf Hitler was a national-socialist.
The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR), was a socialist state in Eurasia that existed from 1922 to 1991.
Venezuela is a socialist utopia where a roll of toilet paper costs them 3 month of wage.
