What explains "democratic Socialists"?

Are they gullible? Ignorant? How were they deluded into believing that THEY will be the Billionaire Socialist dictator?

Socialist Paradise Venezuela: 2,000,000% inflation, no food, no running water, people eat their pets and sell their kids, the political leaders are BILLIONAIRES!

"You bet you life it will work this time!"

Democratic Socialists are thinking about Canada, Germany and Australia.

Not Venezuela.

This has only been pointed out about fifteen million times. And it still doesn't sink in for some. Maybe after sixteen million.

This has been pointed out at least 50 Million times.

Democratic socialism[edit]
Main article: Democratic socialism
Modern democratic socialism is a broad political movement that seeks to propagate the ideals of socialism within the context of a democratic system. Democratic socialism is closely related to social democracy, and in some accounts are identical, while other accounts stress differences. Many democratic socialists support social democracy as a road to reform of the current system, while others support more revolutionary change in society to establish socialist goals. Generally, social democracy is considered to be more centrist and broadly supportive of current capitalist systems (for example, the mixed economy) and the welfare state, while many democratic socialists support a more fully socialist system, either through evolutionary or revolutionary means.

Democratic socialists and social democrats both advocate the concept of the welfare state, but whereas most social democrats view the welfare state as the end itself, many democratic socialists view it as a means to an end.[citation needed] Democratic socialists are also committed to the ideas of the redistribution of wealth and power, as well as social ownership of major industries, concepts widely abandoned by social democrats.

There are no countries in the world that would qualify as a "democratic socialist" state, although some states describe themselves as such, for instance Venezuela, whose former leader Hugo Chávez claimed that democratic socialism was integral to the Bolivarian form of socialism that he was trying to promote.[94]

My description is what they mean.

You can use whatever definition you'd like.

I realize talk radio won't cover this, but it's what they mean.

You sell it as "democratic Socialism", then when it fails, you claim, well that was pure Socialism and not what we were talking about, right?

Trump needs to deport every single one of your fuckers, give you a chance to live in real Socialism for a ******* week. You'll kiss the ground if we let you back

What explains "democratic Socialists"?

It's mostly a over-emphasis on the role of democracy in society. Democratic socalists believe that everything should be run democratically. And that's where they lose me.

Democracy is a means of making decisions where conformity is necessary. Sometimes, we all have to be on the same page. But when we don't, democracy is dumb. When it's not necessary, when it's reasonable to let people go their own way, democracy is just a way to squash diversity.

And every single one of those countries had to change how they were implemented, because the full gov. controlled social programs did not work.
The Swiss did, they went from government run health care to a balanced mix between government and private sector.
They did with all of their government programs.

Because it's bullshit.

Neither of you have a ******* clue.

[CrusaderFrank]

Socialism is at complete odds with democracy. You think the people in Venezuela VOTED to sell their kids and eat their pets?

There's ALWAYS a Socialist Dictator in charge who redistributes everything to his self and his army

 

[Mac1958]

The funniest part of this is the fact that the term "socialism" doesn't scare anyone any more.

So this whole hyperbolic, binary, boogeyman farce is nothing more than partisan masturbation.

That's the goal, sure. But, despite the best efforts of socialists to obfuscate, the term does a have a meaning, and socialists have very real policy aims. Socialism isn't a myth.

Coonman, Poonman and another Coonman to cover for them both.
