Why the hell is Social Democracy so popular and is at times (especially with politically retarded burgers) seen as actual Socialism?
And whenever succdems are elected it fucks us since people are less likely to head further left since they usually go "yep this is Socialism"
because life in the nordics appears pleasant enough that further socialism is deemed unnecessary.
Liberalism is to be expected
Desire for stability in format of social services, safety net and improved capitalism with human face.
People don`t turn towards either of radical positions without some serious collapse on economic base in the first place or collapse of government(along their monopoly on violence).
Aren't you the guy with the patchy blonde pube beard
Wow where the hell have you been
Missed this tbh. Can't think of any social democratic governments in the first world. (Actually the only one I can think of that's notionally social democratic is the Swedish SocDems, but unless they've bucked the global trend and slid left slightly from the 80s, they're useless.)
It's considered socialism for two reasons
1. Opponents decrying their measures as socialism (US in particular.)
2. Virtue signalling on their part (UK Labour party.)
Dubious. I mean, consider the rise of the far left under the 1974-1979 Labour administration in the UK. A broad base of the population certainly moved left, albeit not sufficient numbers to carry things. Furthermore, I mean, the election of notional social democratic parties without social democratic policies (like New Labour) has only lead to those parties taking the kicking they deserve. (Followed by a re-assertion of the left. I mean, it's worth noting that Corbyn is of Bennite tradition, closest to actual socialists in the Labour party.)
Can you bully the socdem who posts about the "sexual free market" to death?
Promise I can blame it on the Freikorps, and there's an MBE in it for you.
Do you even need to ask?
Because they want democracy dude. Their still "liberals" in that sense.
it`s red-brownish tbh.
While I do believe that arranged marriages would be preferable to current state of affairs, I still don`t want to implement them as other members of the clique want.
