What is your issue with Democratic Socialism?

[Epic Beard Man]

It does not take into account personal responsibility. It ignores that there are horrible jobs which are necessary in the modern world people would not do without incentives and burdens. Who wants to be a janitor by choice instead of circumstance? It promotes envy and greed in the masses under the false idea people's labour is worth what each individual wants it to be worth instead of the market. It is an fantasy.

Democrat Socialism is not Social Democracy. It is still Socialism ergo a branch of Communism. You have fallen for the bait and switch. Look up the terms you are using.

Scandinavia still has capitalism. It pays the bills.

Of course, but much of the commons is socialized.

Liberals aren't advocating pure communism. You're presenting a straw man.
Liberals are proposing more public participation in, and oversight of The Commons.

Yes.

Nope as I never made that claim. I pointed out social democracy is not democratic socialism.

Liberals are not democratic socialists.

Useless statement. Try again son.

Fire departments, school systems, police, roads, social security, Medicare, etc, are socialist in nature.

Those are not socialist. Fire fighters do not own their equipment. Paving companies do not own the roads. Something being part of the public institution does not make it socialist.

Demsocs are liberal puppets, that's why.

I think some definitions are needed here.

Definitions?
