practical: I don't have any delusions that the US will implement leftism more extreme than EU style socialist policies any time soon
American: I'm from the US
socialist: I feel the government should be involved more in regulating industries, owning certain categories of services, moderating excess wealth, and ensuring the financial/economic well-being of citizens, as opposed to the conservative style which is basically 'well, if you're poor then fuck off'.

The EU doesn't have socialist policies, you're referring to social safety nets.

socialist: I feel the government should be involved more in regulating industries, owning certain categories of services, moderating excess wealth, and ensuring the financial/economic well-being of citizens, as opposed to the conservative style which is basically 'well, if you're poor then fuck off'.

So you're talking Social Democracy, like the Nordics, not Socialism.

Look, people have been debating the definition of socialism for decades, and you guys are not going to figure out here today on Lemmy World.

It's not a debate so much as a propaganda war where every state is lying.
