" Marxism =/= socialism. "

It's always nice to see someone who can see nuance above the dumbed down simplistic propaganda.

" Marxist socialism and other forms of socialism are completely separate and distinct. "

Please expand and clarify what you mean.

I'm a big fan of Marxist professor Richard D. Wolff and many (not all) of his ideas. I despise ALL big governments, but I love the bottom up kind of socialism - especially worker directed enterprises, aka /s/Cooperatives.

Marxism, in general, says that hierarchies should be destroyed and that socialism should be achieved by destroying the upper classes or forcing them to submit.

Other forms, like National Socialism, say that cooperation between classes should occur towards a common goal, the furthering of the nation and the race in National Socialism.

We are in s/memes btw lol, so we might wanna take this to DMs.
