I am trying to understand as much as possible about socialism as well as other leftist ideologies, and looking around i’ve seen many being critical about democratic socialism, but i honestly struggle to understand why that is such a bad idea as some say. I get that it’s incompatible with ML, but it doesn’t sound so unrealistic and unreasonable to me, so… can you explain? Excuse the ignorance, but as i said socialism is a new topic for me, i mean no offense to anybody

        i’ll ask the mods if you would be censored from saying the name of a single country for you then.

          No, been down this path before. Don’t feel like getting banned or silenced. This is ml after all.

            too bad then, they said you were allowed to name not one but two countries, but no more before being censored for being too lib. guess we will never know now.
