    Socialism is democratic control of the factors of production, not just when the government does stuff.

      Democracy is a form of government: when one group forces another group to do things. Democracy is just a flimsy pretext to justify the actions of the first group against the second group. ‘You have to do es we say or else. It’s ok because we voted on it.’ Nazis operated under socialism. All governments are, by there nature, authoritarian. Even (or maybe especially) democratic rule.
