I started reading about socialism about a year and a half ago. My memory gets cloudy when it comes to sourcing concepts I have come across. My understanding was that socialism was only possible because of what has been achieved under capitalism, or even because capitalism came into existence first. That’s why I said “the conditions in capitalism.” Then, after some developments occurred, there was no longer a need for a transitional period but could now be accomplished overnight.

Thank You. Yes, Alb, I think it was the UN that calculated we can provide enough for up to ten times the global population we now have.

My best guess for why the working-class do not act in their interest is because the propagandists do their jobs well.

"Hi" I'm new to socialism! I appreciate creations like the above "catalogue of anti-socialist smear tactics!" It helps me workout arguments in my head as well as help others do the same! I also find myself needing something similar to workout arguments libertarians throw at me the same way, as in "free-market fundamentalist" arguments one finds in the USA! I'm appreciative of all the great reading material this sight offers! I'm eager to learn about socialism- been trying to grasp it for 20 years now, but this is a difficult task being from the States and all!
