Arguable. But i'm not here to discuss wether socialism is better or worse. Make another thread so you can circlejerk with the retards about how mad socialism is.

>By your definition any country that becomes socialist can't be socialists there fore socialism is like a fucking unicorn, it can't fucking exist because every time it fail you'll say "not real socialism"

The workers own the means of production. Central part of socialism. It's very unfair to call a system socialistic if the workers don't own the mean of capitalism

The 'Merican edumation "system" defines socialism as a system where both the state and the people own the means of production.

A more liberal definition, the one used around /pol/, is an economy with heavy state intervention, generally wealth redistribution.

Are we playing semantics here or do you have some semblance of a point to make, you moorish rape baby.

with all the class system bullshit gone we can start building (what we would call today) a "Utopia", we do have the technology for it.

the real problem is that there are a LOT of people in this world that don't want a utopia and that have the power and means to stop it.

and that's true socialism.

Socialisim means that the workers get the factories, Vietnam claims thats the case, China claimed thats the case. Venezuela is not claiming thats the case, the Socialist goverment only says that this is their goal.

Brainwash much then? Literally nobody else define socialism as that. Socialism central caratheristic revolves around workers owning the means of production.

Calling a system socialist without the workers owning the means of production is strawman, like calling a system capitalistic that does not have private property

If you want to use mental gymnastics to change socialism to mean communism, then be my guest. You're not achieving anything except displaying yourself to be ignorant of the systems you're talking of.

Even your own wikipedia articles prove you wrong, because you don't seem to understand what these words mean:
"characterised by social ownership and democratic control of the means of production"
So to put this in retard speak for you to understand, the state which represents the society through a democratic system is delegated the ownership and management of the means of production.

The workers own the means of production only on paper and in the sense that they have a vote as to what can be done with the system. In all practical terms, the state owns the means of production as a representative of the workers.

Doesn't help that you link the retarded state capitalism article which has this line "economic system in which commercial (i.e., for-profit) economic activity is undertaken by the state, where the means of production are organized and managed as state-owned business enterprises"
Which does not describe north Korea. It does describe USA or China, but we aren't talking about that. We are talking about you being a intellectually maimed child with no idea as to how communism works.

North Korea, Venezuela and Cuba are the only socialist countries in the world right now. Venezuela will collapse in a matter of weeks and Cuba is likely to go China style capitalist in the next decade, leaving only North Korea.

Socialism is dead, it really is. Even the Bernie Sanders types have accepted the inevitability of a market economy.

So in Poland the Heavy industry factories were owned by the workers?

>Workers own the factory

Workers own the means of production. It's the same. A factory is a mean of production.

Communism is a stateless society, a sort of utopia that should be established peaceffuly and naturaly after a socialist society

I literally just proved you are wrong, there were cooperatives owned by employees and that falls under socialism by the same goddamn wiki article you posted.
>So in Poland the Heavy industry factories were owned by the workers?
Yes, there were few heavy industry factories that weren't owned by the state and surprise, farms produce things too, so they also fall under your meme definition.

>Although there are many varieties of socialism and there is no single definition encapsulating all of them, social ownership is the common element shared by its various forms.
Poland was and is socialist, deal with it.
>>
There have been several quasi-communist communities, mostly formed by religious fanatics, over the past few hundred years. Some went so far with the abolition of private property, and the embracing of communitarianism that men and women weren't allowed to be married; every individual belonged to the community, promiscuity was sometimes enforced.
Needless to say they all ended in disaster.

The fact that there where cooperatives doesn't mean that a state is socialist. USA has cooperatives iirc, and it's not socialist.

> there were few heavy industry factories that weren't owned by the state

Exactly. state != workers.

>Poland was and is socialist, deal with it.

No it wasn't. State capitalism at best

Hi

>>74392759
how do you do.
>>
>>74391515

Answer me as to your definition of communism, shit for brains.

The in Democratic People's Republic of Korea, obviously since socialism works so well, the state is an extension of the people. Obviously because "democratic" is in the name, therefore the state being an extension of the people, the people. own the means of production.

The removal of the "invisible hand" of capitalism requires regulation to replace it. Strong regulation requires strong central government to enforce.

A factory owned by the workers that competes in the free market is entirely possible within the confines of today's free market. They do, in fact, exist as well. They're called "co-ops" here.

What's stopping you from recruiting workers and running a factory? You're answer lies in why some people make more, they're willing to take the aforementioned risk.
>>
>>74393582
>Answer me as to your definition of communism, shit for brains.

Not my definition. I read some definitions, but my knowledge of communism is minimal. yest it seems to be larger then 90% of /pol/ pop.

>the state is an extension of the people

The thing is Marx didn't. He considered that the state was made to serve the capitalistts desires.

He didnt't want a bug state. Much to the contrary.

>The removal of the "invisible hand" of capitalism requires regulation to replace it. Strong regulation requires strong central government to enforce.

I think one of the main tenets of socialism or communism is the abolition of money. So problem solved

>>74393960
>I read some definitions, but my knowledge of communism is minimal.

This is obvious.

>seems to be larger then 90% of /pol/ pop.

If it's so minimal how can you accurately determine that?


>I think one of the main tenets of socialism or communism is the abolition of money. So problem solved

Okay, now I know you're just shit posting. That goes nowhere in refuting my statement. If you cannot comprehend that you are beyond help.
