  • The nordic model is not socialist, it's a mix of social democracy and corporatism

  • What do you even mean by legitimacy?

  • Nah, imperialism is about power and influence in general, not just direct military force.

    Ever heard of proxy wars?

  • criticising US gov imperialism ≠ endorsing CPC imperialism

  • Holy fuck, mega based take ya got there. Social darwinism is a bane to society, deeply rooted in capitalist thought and also loved by fascists for its eugenic undertones. People get fooled that it's somehow "scientific" because it's got darwinism in the name (and because of poor education) when it's nothing but pseudoscience. Same goes for the phrase "survival of the fittest" which is a social darwinist misinterpretation of Darwin's theories.

    In a similar vein, I firmly believe that everyone is creative in some way. Most people are just unable to discover what their creative interests might be because of the pressures of (over)work, because art education is so goddamn expensive, and because creative industries are incredibly exclusive and elitist. And limiting creativity severely limits our imagination, making us good little cogs for the machine.

  • Does it count if I promise to do that in the future? 😅

  • Ik the intention of your comment isn't to imply otherwise but I think it's still important to note that "socialism for them" isn't socialism.

    Also these "(right) libertarians" are as libertarian as "anarcho-capitalists" are anarchists and as the "national socialists" where socialist. They're just another case of leftist terminology being stolen and twisted by the right.

  • Yeah if anything liberalism is supposed to be socially "progressive" (in the #rainbowcapitalism way) and fiscally reformist but still rooted in the instrinsic conservatism of capitalist values.

  • Record high global temps on the daily for the past 3 weeks and still these greedy spiteful sad fucks remain unphased

  • If you're splitting hairs about communism, socialism, and "mislabelling" (even though socialism is a generic term that encompasses communism...?), why are you describing China's government as communist? Communism is (ideally, at least) stateless, and like all socialist idologies it is fundamentally anti-capitalist.

    You're right that the Nordic model isn't socialist, though. It's a blend of social democracy and corporatism.
