Social Democracy is the ideal form of leftism. FDR and TDR were Social Democrats (progressives in name but social democrats in their actions potato potahto you get it). Bernie Sanders, the most recent icon of leftist ideals in the United States, is a Social Democrat (he has never pushed for any legitimately democratic socialist policies). The Nordic countries, the highest-ranked countries in nearly all aspects of governance save only for GDP due to their small populations, favor Social Democracy.
What other leftist political philosophy has a history of proponents that use it as a means of genuine success? What other leftist political philosophy is used by a high-ranked country? What other leftist political philosophy has lead to a country's undeniable success?
It is abundantly clear Social Democracy is the ideal form of leftism.
bad bait but I'm sure some autist will reply to you without saging

Have you tried considering C O N T E X T ? rude sage

The problem is that as long as capitalism remains, those gains will always be lost until the bourgeoisie realize that automation makes the rest of us unnecessary and decides to eliminate us. Kill yourself, you stupid faggot.
Jonathan Perez
Sure bub.

P.S. Social Democrat Macron is showing how it's supposed to be done.
You don't know jack shit. The social democratic collossus stands on clay feet. 60 years of social democratic dominance in Sweden and all they created was swept away in no time at all, both by socdem and conservative neoliberals. Sweden is arguably one of the single most neoliberal country in certain respects. Sweden is one of only three countries in the world without a reserve requirement for fractional reserve banking. Sweden is also the most extreme country in terms of private companies running public operations like schools and hospitals as there is no limit to the profit they can take out from the money they recieve in tax funding.
Neoliberalism can't be defeated by the ballot, because neoliberalism was never up for election in the first place. Just look at what happened to Syriza.
John Diaz
Macron is the most neoliberal neoliberal to ever neoliberal. The guy is a fucking rothschild banker.

Social democracy with strong borders and firm ethnic identity is the best form of leftism. Social democracy+ liberalism is a recipe for disaster and is unsustainable.
Places like Sweden were basically utopias before all the brown people started coming
Juan Howard
Stop fucking referring to the Nordic states.
We were corporate welfare states at best. Workers rights and workers influence was never something that was heavily pushed. If hand outs is the only thing you want then fine.

1. social democracy is capitalism with a human face 2. u gave no real argument 3. kill urself
Alexander Howard
Delet this
Jaxson Bell
People, please. I can give you all a very good reason.
*clears throat*
Socialism does not motivate innovation or leadership and thus would lead to the stagnation of activeness and creativity in any people who embraced it.
Capitalism leads to absolute corruption in favor of the rich which leads to an economy failing in the long-term due to them being so greedy the poor beneath them revolt or die.
Social Democracy stays between these two buckets of filthy and embodies a holy water.

Social democracy necessitates a closed border. As we are for open borders, we must reject social democracy.
Xavier Watson
By long-term standards we should be viewing the world as one big country rather than as several separate countries; otherwise the political philosophy is too short-sighted.
Charles Davis
It's useless to think hundreds of years ahead to when borders don't exist. In the meantime, domestic welfare chauvinism is the enemy of the global poor, and welcoming them to the first world is part of the short-term solution prior to Communism coming into existence.

Aside from social democracy being inherently untenable in the long term due to its failure to abolish the law of value, a global social democracy is probably untenable in the first place.
Brody Williams
Let me put it like this.
Which is better: present state of the world, or global social democracy?
Michael Peterson
better than current system =/= ideal form or whatever bullshit. besides, all global social democracy would do is prolong capitalism
Joseph Clark
I refuse to choose between the two - global Communism is the only acceptable choice.
Luis Brooks
So since you imply it would be better than present status quo…
Do ANY countries in the world have a better ethical and functional political philosophy in place than social democracy right now? This question is taking into account all aspects of life not just the economy and level of corruption in a country.
Robert Cox
No country has an acceptable or functional political/ethical philosophy.
Adrian Morales
Overthrow the Status Quo
Jose Ramirez
Nordic countries seem to have things in check the most out of all countries in the world.
And they just happen to be Social Democratic?
COINCIDENCE?

No country has things in check, because nothing less than abolition of the state, private property, money, and wage labor, is acceptable.
Connor Edwards
thats not a fucking argument
Juan Ramirez
It's easy to have a good life when you just ignore the exploitation of the poor and the working class.
James Harris
Social Democracy has the lowest number of flaws when held against any other political philosophy.
