It seems like certain members of other sites come to saidit to flaunt their ignorance. Educate yourself instead of swallowing the propaganda of whatever site birthed the foolish link between socialism and genocide.

There's a difference between communism and socialism... Communism always fails. Socialism has many successful examples, especially when integrated with democracy. Like roads, and the postal system, for example.

Socialism is workers controlling the means of production. How the fuck are roads or the postal system socialist?

Retard.

Yes, and people own the roads, so it's a social good, ergo socalism.

We get cheap postage because we subsidize it with our tax dollars. Shared resource. Socialism.

Are you unable to post a reply of disagreement without also calling the other person names like a child?

Neither of those are socialism. They're state ownership. You're stupid. You loose.

Oh, hey Magnora. I haven't seen you in awhile my man, how have you been?

[–]magnora7 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

Doing well, you?

Not too bad. How do you feel saidit has worked out for you? I remember pitching a similar idea when we were working on r/shillfreeconspiracy and the admins locked it, ha!

Ha. It's been going fairly well. Saidit is doubling in size about every 5 months or so, we'll be one of the largest reddit alternatives on the internet very soon.

Mixed systems guy here, the common factor in communism and socialism failing isn't the system itself.

In fact.. a nation once implemented socialism so effectively it would have overhauled how the world's economy works, destroying banks and wage slavery. That nation was razed, and its leaders demonized, but damn does it roast the almonds to this day.
