These westerners are social democrats which is not hard to understand, it's wiki entry away.

It’s infuriating considering that it’s in the first goddamn sentence: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socialism

Socialism is an economic and political philosophy encompassing diverse economic and social systems characterised by social ownership of the means of production, as opposed to private ownership.

If those libs could read they’d be very upset.

Is it so much to ask that workers councils be in charge instead of some revolutionary

[–] davel@lemmy.ml 5 points 9 months ago

The history of socialist movements shows that it is. Rosa Luxemburg was right over a hundred years ago.

"Those countries reflect poorly on socialism."

"How dare you, they're not really socialist."

You know, I thought that, with Lemmy being less popular than Reddit, there would be less political propaganda messaging on here

But it seems I'm mistaken

[–] loonsun@sh.itjust.works 10 points 9 months ago

Lemmy is less popular and therefore more niche, meaning you'll get smaller communities with stronger opinions, and therefore way more political extremism
