Nazi~~ Who doesn't love the dude with the stylish mustache?

Actually I'm in that category of people who couldn't care less, it doesn't seem to affect anything in my life whether I'm a democrat or a rabid nazi cannibal.

I'm not affilated or do I associate myself with any political party or organization, but I have liberal leanings.

That is an oxymoron.

I will put it like one of my favourite journalists, Rudolf Augstein: "in case of doubt, left"

I can kinda see what nero is thinking. But no, in reality it'd never work. Basically, that's what the Russians did (in name)

Oh didn't see that a few hours ago, but I have to disappoint you that's not true. Democratic Socialism isn't an oxymoron, you can say it is the counterpart of Leninism don't have time to write more but most people ignore: socialism =/= communism =/= Marxism =/= Leninism =/= Stalinism

Yes, I know Marxist theory, which is the term I use to encompass all those terms, but that doesn't mean that Democratic Socialism is 1. a viable means of government 2. a practical means of government 3. not an oxymoron.

The basis of socialism is control by a central government. Once the people in a democracy grant X amount of power to the government, it ceases to be a democracy.

Ok to put it extremly simpliefied : Democracy is a form of government and Socialism is an Ideologie. So it isn't an oxymoron 😉
