sewer socialism

Originally a pejorative term for the the Socialist Party of America, sewer socialism is a form of socialism that focuses on improving quality of life from the ground up instead of reform through revolution. Examples include sanitation systems, city-owned water and power, improved quality of education and so on. Also known as Constructive Socialism, and is considered a pregenitor to Democratic Socialism.
"We wanted our workers to have pure air, we wanted them to have sunshine, we wanted planned homes, we wanted living wages; we wanted recreation for young and old; we wanted vocational education; we wanted a chance for every human being to be strong and live a life of happiness.

And, we wanted everything that was necessary to give them that: playgrounds, parks, lakes, beaches, clean creeks and rivers, swimming and wading pools, social centers, reading rooms, clean fun, music dance song and joy for all."
-- Emil Seidel, Milwaukee's first socialist mayor, describing his sewer socialism platform

Social Athiest

Doesn't believe in any Social Ideology like Popularism (The idea that you need to be rich and look a certain way and have hella friends and be self-centered to be on top and for happiness and believe they are superior to those below them solely because of 1 thing they have over the other person) or Bandism (The idea you need to do everything opposite of the populism ideology). A Social Athiest believes in just being himself and doesn't let anyone tell them what they have to be or what they can do they are happy with whatever lifestyle they have and have faith that life will get better without the need to be jealous or greedy, unlike the popularism ideology. Social Athiest belives both popularism and bandism are both morally wrong and believes in just being real. NOTE Social Athiest is NOT the same as religion athiest. Famous celebrities who are social Athiest were Kanye West, Micheal Jackson, Muhammad Ali, 2pac, Phil Collins,John F Kennedy, Donald Trump, Flo-Rida, Big Sean

Social media

A place just like prison that he catch you in a big and dark word full of lying and every one just show only a beautiful 5minutes of their lives and hide the 23h 55m 60s of their lives. And sometimes the people say how beautiful life he or she got but he have no idea that his life is more beautiful than his live.

Try to be smart in using it😎
