Wrong.

Socialism is the belief that there are some things that the people, thru it's government, should provide to ALL the people, in common, for the common benefit of ALL. You know, things like HEALTH CARE, which the fascists continually oppose here in in "amerikkka" and Medicade, Medicare, Social Security, Education, roads, airports, postal service - socialist things like this that we have that the fascists are trying to eliminate! Socialism has NOTHING to do with wages or the ownership or determination of them, nor of private assets.

It is separate from and independent of capitalism.

Communism is the belief that the assets of a society should all be shared EQUALLY by society, including the means of production, and all the rewards, like salaries, should also be shared EQUALLY, by everyone. In exchange for that, NO ONE is worried about necessities, such as health care, housing, food, and education - these are all provided by EVERYBODY to EVERYBODY thru the government.

"Socialists, like Communists, believed that socialism can only be accomplished through overthrow and revolution."

Neither has anything to do about or advocating REVOLUTION, let alone "constant revolution" like you originally stated.

You seem to conveniently forget that EVERY form of government has advocated REVOLUTION, including OUR OWN!

"Communism and its revolution is also often centered around a cult of personality."

You mean just like our criminal Raygun and now Bunkerboy? That kind of cult?

Yeah - I'm being condescending with you, because you have no idea what you are spewing.
