Very well argued! I'm intimidated by your political acumen and all those emojis!
That's the definition of socialism, dumb ass
No. That's the definition of communism.
The Communist Manifesto is the definition of communism. You don't know what you're talking about, not remotely
Care to cite Marx and Engels?
You're dabbling in topics beyond your understanding.
I understand the topic perfectly and have sheepskins to prove it.
In fact, I got into grad school because I became an expert at deliberately writing like a hardcore Marxist for my goose-stepping commie professors, to the point where I had a 3.8 GPA because I was able to effectively parrot back the Marxists diatribe I was repeatedly fed (and this was at Texas A&M University, arguably the most "conservative" pro-capitalism public university in the world).
Socialism is government ownership and control of the means of production. Communism is a stateless form of existence (anarchy) where the people own the means of production in common and make decision via democracy or voting (democratic socialism).
The key, and only relevant common characteristic shared by communism and socialism is that individuals are deprived of property rights, which is why both are so abhorrent that I support a constitutional amendment declaring that no federal, state, or local government may own the means of production.
But the point is, we don't really give a **** about the petty, inconsequential distinctions between socialism and communism. THEY ARE THE ******* SAME where it matters (individual rights), and will eventually be the same in all other aspects, regardless. Communism is anarchy and anyone with any sort of reasoning capabilities knows that anarchy is a fart in the wind. It lingers only momentarily, then quickly mixes with the surrounding atmosphere and becomes something else (a state). Like anarchy, Communism's democratic administration of the means of production is too much of a burden for regular people, so they will choose (elect) decision makers who have the authority to handle administration...BOOM!! A state is formed---a/k/a socialism.
Any questions?
