You are confusing socialism with communism. There has been a huge psyop to conflate these two opposite words.

If they were the same, why did the National Socialists fight the Communists in World War II? Anybody with a few working neurons would realize it doesn't make sense to equate or even relate the two.

SOCIALISM is intrinsically tied to CAPITALISM. SOCIALISM is what keeps CAPITALISM civilized. Not enough of it and you have the USA. Too much of it and you have Sweden. Canada used to be a role model for middle-of-the-road socialism.

COMMUNISM is a completely different system, it is devoid of both socialism and capitalism, WHICH GO HAND IN HAND. And yes, it is a stupid, destructive system. Calling out stupidity is fine, but it is much better to do so from an educated perspective.

You've been fed disinfo, sorry.

ww2 was more about fascism vs communism. hitler idolised mussolini to the end. he also used to say national socialism is socialism done right.

lenin put it plainly: the goal of socialism is communism. this is still true today, the united nations and china think it too. no matter what you think to know.

fascism used to be defined as a political ideology opposing communism in the dictionaries.

and of course socialism is never civilized, just look at the life in the eastern block countries during the cold war, or cuba.

And National Socialism isn't fascism?

So you are a disciple of Lenin, and his words are gospel to you. Got it.

I don't know of any formerly socialist regimes in the Eastern block. I know plenty of communist ones though.

Looks like you have many wires crossed my dude. Best uncross them if you will talk about this topic.

Also, don't use Orwellian Newspeak. It's bad. And that's the only language in which the definition of "Socialism" lends an air of truthfulness to your statements. Are you a pro-totalitarian Big Brother surveillance state communist?

    I have explained my position. You find it condescending. OK whatever. That's not the topic.

    ua4 supports anarco-Capitalism which Lenin would enjoy for it would eventually via easy subversion bring about a centralized communist state run by despots.
