Political parties are based on commonalities of persuasion. Democratic Socialism is primarily a political persuasion, but there are some countries with Democratic Socialist parties, which are obviously based on the persuasion. It wasn’t unclear, unless you’re deliberately trying to muddy the waters.

Both of those things are different from a political system, though. Social Democracies can have multiple political parties of various persuasions, because Social Democracy itself isn’t an individual party but a whole system within which various parties interact. There are social democratic parties, based on the goal of implementing policies that resemble how a social democracy would run.

The majority of Nordic countries are part of NATO. It’s a nasty terrorist organization.

Fucking vatnik.

You pretend to be progressive, but fail to see true progressivism.

Oh, so I guess “true progressivism” is Lenin ordering the Bolsheviks to assassinate all the Soviet leadership and replace them with sycophantic puppets because… he lost an election to them?

Millions die due to capitalism every year

I never denied that, and I don’t support capitalism.

I’m not sure why you’re not bringing that up as well.

Way to flip the fucking script. I brought up the deaths under Lenin et al as a response to you failing to mention them while pointing out the supposed deaths Social Democracy is allegedly responsible for. I even acknowledged that some western countries have committed war crimes, but I guess you’ll just breeze over anything that doesn’t reinforce your predetermined narrative?

Also, do note that you’re now defending capitalism.

I didn’t do that, but believe it or not I can be against bolshevism and capitalism. Not everyone is trapped in your narrow, campist worldview.
