Your narrow definition of socialism is outdated by contemporary standards.

No. It isn't. You just wish it was.

but don’t shoot the messenger.

No, I think we'll just settle for debunking you... which would be no more difficult to do than with any other "enlightened centrist" claptrap.

Me: The political form of a society wherein the proletariat is victorious in overthrowing the bourgeoisie will be a democratic republic.

You: Insufficient fan service

You're excluding yourself, Clyde. Don't expect leftists to include you while you're trying to camouflage the fact that appeasing the status quo serves your interests - that's the kind of shit we have become really good at seeing through.
