Yes! That's the false definition! Even wikipedia in every other language has the right definition. Use google translate and look at the page as it is written in any other language! I looked at the French one and it has the correct one. You will see that they are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT!!!

Really? I've never heard this before.

Let's see a link, so others can weigh in.

Easy, thanks for making a reasonable and well thought-out inquiry about this instead of calling me a communist, which I DEFINITELY am not!

So the actual definition of the word "socialism" is known worldwide by many peoples in many languages, and in English by anyone who has received schooling in economics before the millenium.

This is the correct and accepted definition of socialism: https://philosophyterms.com/socialism/

However, many online dictionaries as well as shillypedia have started peddling the notion that it means "the state taking ownership of the means of economic production". Which, if you know anything, is totalitarian communism and not socialism at all. Right? OK let's continue...

Here's the shittypedia page with the false and wrong definition: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socialism

Randomly, the first site that popped up for me in my search engine, which happens to have the same wrong definition: https://www.dictionary.com/browse/socialism?s=t

But lastly and most importantly, a google auto-translation of the French Wikipedia page on socialism, into English: https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=fr&tl=en&u=https%3A%2F%2Ffr.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FSocialisme

This again has the correct definition, the same, but using different wording, as found on philosophyterms.com

Now it seems obvious to me that (((somebody))) is trying to change the accepted meaning of the term in order to further (((their))) agenda.

I believe the target of this psyop is the USA. Radicalizing US citizens against "socialism" by its false definition seems to be in (((their))) interest.

But either way it's a glaring example of widespread, and DEEP Orwellian disinformation TODAY.

Thank you for your time.

Do you think if you copy/paste your bullshit enough times it becomes right?
