In what European country is there a political system where:
1a. let's say >75% of the means of production is controlled by the state, syndicalists (i.e. the factory has no owner, it is run by the workers), or independent people (and I don't mean independent contractors that for-profit companies use)
2b. such as system isn't repressive
Bruh.
You're talking about communism...
Do you think theyre the same thing or just not know the difference?
I don't know for sure, but it seems that communists, most who seem to identify as Marxist-Leninists, or pretty much like them, describe themselves as socialists.
What is your definition of socialism?
Yeah. There's no way someone could be this ignorant and this opinionated without ever putting in the two minutes to google it themselves.
Lots of Google results are garbage.
Garbage in gets garbage out
yep.
