It wasn't real socialism last time.

  And it won't be next time due to how humans (like many, many other animals) work.

    I guess the Danes are enlightened

      The means of production are pretty privately owned in Denmark.

        The point is the results of the worker's labor are more fairly shared in Denmark than in other places.
        • RandomLensman 2y ago
          That doesn't make Denmark a socialist country.
          • Rinzler89 2y ago
            You keep confusing socialism with totalitarian communism despite everyone here telling you that.
            • RandomLensman 2y ago
              Where do I do that? The two are not the same, but socialism is also not the same as social democracy, for example.
      • truckerbill 2y ago
        you're conflating socialism and communism again...
        • RandomLensman 2y ago
          No I am not. Means of production being under social ownership instead of privately owned is a core characteristic of socialism but it does allow limited private ownership (some property, perhaps some small businesses but certainly not large industrial capacity). Denmark's industry is privately owned - if Denmark were a socialist country, that would not be possible or at odds with Denmark being socialist.
