Comment on How do you think a socialist President would win the 2028 election? Would they use the exact methods used by Zohran Mamdani which earned him the office of Mayor of NYC?

    Yes, it is right.

    Social democracy is a broad, centre-left[1] to left-wing[2] social, economic, and political ideology within the wider socialist movement[3] that supports political and economic democracy[4] and a gradualist, reformist, and democratic approach toward achieving social equality. In modern practice, social democracy has taken the form of a predominantly capitalist,[5] yet robust welfare state, with policies promoting social justice, market regulation, and a more equitable distribution of income.[5][6]

        I agree, I think its a good thing that he's a democratic socialist, as I am also one. But there is a difference between a dem socialist and a social democrat. Mainly the whole capitalism thing.
