Sociales 

Criollo Mexican kids who come from priviledged economic backgrounds (rich & upper-middle class). Because of their parents money, they think they are better than everyone else. They tend to dress in metrosexual fashions, wearing such clothing brands as Abercrombie, Hollister, American Eagle, Calvin Klein, Nautica, Ralph Lauren, Roxy, Express, Aeropostale, Gap, Banana Republic, etc. They love to drive around in German cars, preferabily Volkswagen Golf's or Jetta's. The make every effort to look down upon other Mexicans as ignorant peasants who lack any education whatsoever. Ironically, they hate to study and work hard, so mommy & daddy buy them their grades while they party & fuck around. They make fun of Americans, yet they pretend to be edgy punk rock skaters or valley girls. These pricks will begin enjoying the discotheque lifestyles at 13 years of age because their parents get them fake IDs and enjoy going to such places like Tangaloo or Monte Picacho. These creatures tend to reside in such geographical regions such as the Eastside of Chula Vista (Bonita, Eastlake, Otay Ranch), maybe La Jolla, and any other place you would find snobbish Mexican brats who look down at you like you are scum.
Those damn sociales are the biggest assholes in Mexican society.

chardonnay socialist

A Chardonnay socialist is the middle-class equivalent of a champagne socialist or limousine liberal. The distinction is significant - they are comfortable rather than rich, more likely to watch TV than be on it, and are much, much more numerous.
Chardonnay socialists are characterised by having wonderfully admirable left-wing ideals...which they never act on. It's about feeling good, not doing good. Causes are often comfortably remote - it's easier to sit around with a glass of Church Road talking about how awful the oppression is in East Timor than it is to help your own underprivileged ten minutes down the road.

Despite being about as useful as tits on a bull, at first look they seem basically harmless. But like anyone who chooses a credo for their own self-interest and entertainment, a chardonnay socialist's true value system may well be anything but what it appears. They are quite likely to have a case of the not-in-my-backyards: "Oh, isn't it wonderful we've accepted all those poor refugees into the country! (Just as long as they don't move into our neighbourhood)". If you're the sort of person who cares about actually getting something useful done, the idea of these people starts to look quite sinister.

An accusation of Chardonnay socialism is often a cheap shot fired by right-wingers at anyone they disagree with whose views are remotely to the left of their own. This can be moronic knee-jerk-reactionism or a more calculated move designed to play on the belief of a surprisingly large proportion of the population that anyone with an apparent concern for other people's well-being must have something in it for themselves somewhere. Either way such accusations often have no substance, although if there weren't so many Chardonnay socialists about, the people genuinely interested in doing something good would be far less likely to be tarred with the same brush of hypocrisy.

The term is widespread in New Zealand as well as Australia, but a quick Google search for chardonnay socialism seems to indicate the term is restricted to these two countries. The British would probably say trendy leftie.

There is a particularly high concentration of Chardonnay socialists in the suburb of Grey Lynn in Auckland, New Zealand.
-An example of a Chardonnay socialist is former Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Fraser. Fraser advocated for the Lebanese concession however directed the new Lebanese arrivals to Sydney rather than his residential affluent native town of Toorak and other areas in Southern Melbourne. Areas which are 1000km away of Australia's biggest Lebanese community in South-western Sydney.

-During the 2005 Cronulla riots, the actress, Cate Blanchett with no history of living in the Sutherland Shire and South/South-western Sydney wore 'Think' T-shirts during a brief attention seeking moment on Coogee beach with other Chardonnay Socialists.

When Lebanese youths were harassing innocent people during their weekly cruises to the Sutherland Shire for the last few years, Blanchett who at the time was much more likely to be overseas shooting several films such as Elizabeth, The Gift, The Aviator and The Lord of the Rings Trilogy. Blanchett like Fraser before her, grew up more than 1000 kilometres away in the affluent suburb of Ivanhoe, Victoria, which qualifies her for a Chardonnay Socialist.

Democratic Socialism 

An anti-capitalist political ideology advocating for socially owned economy (socialism).

Frequently mistaken for social democracy which advocates for economic and social justice but is not anti-capitalist.
Bernie Sanders DOES NOT advocate for democratic socialism, he's a social democrat.

Equalist Socialism 

A very centric form of government and economics run on K.S.Lukas’s “On the Theory of Equalist Idealism”. It outlaws inheritance and practically almost eradicated welfare, instead creating a government work program for all homeless of jobless individuals. This work program would see that their laborers are put into housing and farming industries in order to provide better infrastructure and to lower the cost of living. It is a combination of extreme capitalistic beliefs mixed with social healthcare benefits. Universal healthcare is provided, in order to have younger workers take over for the older individuals, who seek only to work in order to preserve their health. Equalist Socialism uses the main principals of Equalist Idealism to enforce that all monetary and property assets of an individual are requisitioned by the government in exchange for little to no taxes.
What is Equalist Socialism?

It is a government ideological-economical form of reshaping society in which many key aspects of the conflicting socialist and capitalist ideals meet in the “middle ground”
