    It’s true. Everything I don’t like is socialist. And referring to things that don’t work as socialist no matter the context is an excellent idea, I’ll be doing that from now on.

          If a socialist calls you a dickhead, it means they’re still trying to spare your feels.

          Again, why would you say something like that in this thread/community/instance?

          I’m not requesting you to answer. I’m requesting you to reconsider your approach to this scenario

          I feel like this is a teaching opportunity. I’m no teacher, and certainly no academic, but socialism is a political stance that socializes basic needs, such as healthcare, transportation or education (primary and secondary). “Socialization” means every single citizen pays for those through the tax system, every year or so, proportionally to their own income. This allows everyone, regardless of their status, to enjoy good health, regular trains and buses, and a complete education, all without paying extra. It also prevents these basic amenities from falling into the wrong hands, ie those of capitalists who would gladly hike up prices, taking avantage of the fact that they’re vital things. It is something to strive for. I hope I helped make this notion clearer. Cheers
