where do you stand on the socialist spectrum? i’ll start: my socialist views are a fusion of market socialism, welfarism, georgism and left-libertarianism - i took the leftvalues quiz (as shown in the photo attached in this post), and i got “centrist marxism”. you DON’T have to take the quiz though.

EDIT: i just added the link

    I’ve never even heard of “council communism” tbh, but then again I’m only just learning about all this. Looking up the meaning and stuff for “democratic centralism” made me realize how little I actually know, but in a positive way if that makes sense?

      Council Communism was a small movement centered around councils (go figure). Democratic centralism is typically described as diversity in thought, unity in action, ie consensus is built and voted on, and the results are binding on all members. If you want a place to start with theory, I made a Marxist-Leninist reading list. Check it out if you like!

        I know you did, I’ve actually shared it forward with some friends irl recently! Yeah I needed to go and look up these meanings for the quiz, which is something I generally like to do and often end of going down rabbitholes on wikis so no harm in that.
