[white men's opinions are not welcome]
"If you are just learning about socialism, it's important to understand that socialism - an economic system - is defined as "worker ownership and control of the means of production."
"Yes, we would see a socialized medical program, a socialized education program, etc., but worker ownership and control of the means of production is the core element. Socialism is not the same thing as Scandinavia's expanded social safety net (social democracy).
"Asking questions can be really important (it certainly was for me). I know it can be intimidating to ask questions about topics as foundational as this, but hopefully the person you ask will treat you with respect."
