While this is definitely a true flow chart, the headline is misguided. Considering the only difference between the right and left when it comes to corporations is how honest they are about their policies. The right says they will do it, the left says they won’t, and then they both do exactly the same shit.
Socialism is defined as the working people either directly owning or democratically controlling the economy. I don’t see how that is the case in any “socialist” country at the moment (speaking of the nordic ones, Portugal, China etc)
Imma bring up an example to maybe explain it easier. North Korea calls itself the “Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea”. In their official understanding/rhetoric they have a democracy in which the administration acts in the interest of the people instead of a few bureaucratic elites. In reality it’s the other way around.
Now, if someone said “Look at what democracy does to a country!!11!”, would you not object?
While this is true, most left leaning people still know how economy works and why it should keep on working.
Germany is considered heavily left leaning nowadays. Especially in comparison to countries like the US.
But that doesn’t mean that Germans are suddenly borderline communist.

that’s not a left/right divide. it’s a right/further right divide. And even staunch conservatives follow (neo)liberal economics.
This is a flow chart from a leftists/socialist perspective

Lmao you are literally the ‘but that’s not real socialism/communism’ meme right now 🤣

God damn that is an excellent, concise refutation of his tired point. Definitely going to borrow that argument in the future
yeah… the cognitive dissonance hurts
This comment will not go down well here, this site leans left pretty heavily and it’s easy to upset them lol

lol, who in their right mind considers germany as left leaning?
Yankees.
I am German. And Bernie sanders was even more konservative than us.
Probably, but considering Germany as a left-leaning country is still rich.
It sounds more like your perception of Germany is a little displaced from reality.
It for sure is not. Germany is a social democracy. One of the most advanced in Europe.
Therefore Germany is heavily left leaning.
I don’t know what you would call the left at this point… Communism?

Where will you go when you realize the majority of people don’t subscribe to the right wing scam?
