It’s more along the lines of how the United States won’t even allow social democracy as a release valve

I think South America can have little a social democracy, as a treat

Is the nation imperialist?

If yes, social imperialists.

If no, social democrats.

Pretty damn simple.

there was a good reply by some smart lady about him on here, let me just find it…ah! Here we go:

Yeah that was where the real distinction evolved. In Europe and the US opportunists were happy to redistribute the wealth of the global periphery to their nation’s proletariat and call it socialism. The global periphery redistributing it’s own wealth from its bourgeoisie to its own working classes isn’t particularly evil though.
