Marxism is literally just an ideological framework which is used to interpret, analyse and critique the socioeconomic conditions we live under. Discussion and implementation of socialism necessarily implies the application of marxism. What you wrote is a bit like saying that women’s rights advocacy is good but feminism is bad.
Do you frequently have full debates with yourself so that you have a hundred percent control over the replies, and therefore always win? Is that productive in your mind?
Ha! I suppose that means you were being honest without yourself and considering new information as you worked your way through it. That’s the heart of the scientific method, and the core principle behind Rubber Duck Debugging.
If it was regular ol’ socialism around here, that’s one thing, but quite a bit of lemmy is straight Marxism. Don’t let them blur the lines, please.
Yay socialism!
Boo Marxism!

I’m guessing you may have meant marxism-leninism?
“What’s the difference between Socialism and Marxism?”
“Well, Socialism is when you do the things I like but Marxism is when you do the things I don’t like.”
“What do you like?”
“Generating passive incomes on the labors of other people!”

@Anticorp
I have actually *lost* a debate with myself before.
It was quite embarrassing.
I’m also not entirely sure how that was even possible.

So you’re saying socialism is the same as Marxism right?
