British democratic socialism has, in the main, always been more democratic than it has socialist. And no matter how much you try to argue that left-wing genocidal maniacs are as bad as, or worse than the nazis, you can't alter that fact. |
For socialism read failure end of story, the only time socialism has ever worked is by the point of a gun, which no doubt in your mind is democracy
