So I made a comment on worldnews criticizing Chinese axriciry in the south china sea and apparently got banned for it by the automod. This happen to anyone else? Is this Lemmy’s version of the need help post and the shape of things to come?

Scandinavian countries are not leftist.
They’re some of the most left leaning of Western countries, but they’re not actually on the left side of the spectrum, they’re just less right.
That is correct and in particular nowadays but it doesn’t change the fact that the historical social democrats were part of the global socialist movement and their variant of pragmatic socialism allows for private ownership because you know, the world is not a binary with simple solutions like teenagers believe because they are teenagers and tankies and fascists want to believe because the complexity of the world is ungraspable and terrifying.
But sure, I bet your smart thinks beats the entire history of 1900s, everybody else is wrong and your definitions are correct. Boo implemented socialism that changed the world for the better, you bad! Only hard line Stalinism makes free!
Yes historically Soc Dems were part of the left, that leftist element is now referred to as Democratic Socialism.
Soc Dems still sought to do away with capitalism by transitioning to socialism, they just wanted to approach it through gradual change of the system.
