Look all of these Delicious Lemmy liberal Nonsense in this chat
The liberal nonsense tastes rather yucky if you ask me. I'll pass on it.
Ya, show that to anyone who's actually lived under communism.
Meanwhile, under capitalism… everything seems fine! Pay no attention to all those homeless people slowly dying on the streets as a warning to the others to never get caught slippin’. Pay no attention to the formerly commonly-owned public works in Eastern Europe and now-Russia sold out from under the people to capitalists at the insistence of other capitalists and now left to rot and serve as something to “warn” ignorant westerners about while they ignore their own crumbling infrastructure.
But hey, the grandkids of some weirdo right wing Soviet citizens who came to the US under dubious circumstances told you communism is bad. So, hey, what can I say against that? Truth? Facts? Objective reality?
“No, no. You don’t understand. These grandkids of a piece of shit said this thing happened and we have to throw away all dreams and hopes of anything better.”
What's with all this pro-communist crap on lemmy?
We're down with Democratic socialism. They aren't the same.

Who the fuck is "we", shitlib?
Lol you commented in the wrong place! And SocDems are falling for fascist parties sooooooo fuck SocDems, fuck fascism and fuck capitalism.
Say it loud comrade!!
The dictatorship of the proletariat is the democratic expression of the working class interest, socialism IS democratic already so there's no need to try and retrofit the liberal definition of "democracy" to it.
“Democratic Socialists” believe that they can overthrow the bourgeoisie just by voting in the current system. That is why they add the “democratic” part.
down with Democratic socialism
Long live revolution!
There are two components of the modern Western system, capitalism and liberalism. They are both flawed and breaking systems. If you're a democratic socialist, you have already concluded that capitalism is no good. However, liberalism is also a flawed, broke system. This extends beyond that liberalism in the way capitalism justifies itself. It is liberal democracy, an archaic system rooted in the same flaws as capitalism. If you take over or build liberal democracy with socialism, your endeavor will fail and probably become something like capitalism. You must change more than the words used and the goals of accountants; you must change how people relate to power.
The devs are literally commies, and the early adopters were all commies.
