    Socialism of the 21st Century

    “If Chile was the cradle of neoliberalism, it will also be its grave.”

    Socialism of the 21st Century is an economically left-wing and culturally variable ideology. It is opposed to both capitalism and Marxism–Leninism, as it believes both failed to address issues such as poverty, hunger, racism, sexism, exploitation, the destruction of resources and the absence of a truly democratic system. It seeks to achieve its goals through parliamentary democracy, rather than violent revolution. It wants to establish an economy democratically controlled by the workers and based on the Marxian labor theory of value. It also wants strong democracy, with the utilization of referendums and protection of minority rights.

    Beliefs

    Socialism of the 21st century is a economically left Wing and culturally variable ideology that was developed by German theorist Heinz Dieterich in the 1990s.

    Indigenism

    Dietrich and many other 21st century socialists believe in the protection and preservation of indigenous rights. Dietrich believes that the struggle of indigenous peoples against imperialism and colonialism is inherently connected to the struggle of the working class against capitalism.

    Economics

    21st century socialism advocates for economic progressivism, and is famous for its fierce opposition to neoliberal economics. 21st century socialists believe in the enaction of socialist economic reforms, such as the nationalization of industries and national resources, protectionism, economic planning, and wealth redistribution.

    Democracy

    21st century socialism is a form of Democratic socialism. 21st century socialists reject revolutionary socialism, instead favoring reformist methods. 21st century socialists commonly criticize Marxism-Leninism for its rejection of democracy.

    Variants

    Moderate Socialism of the 21st Century

    Moderate Socialism of the 21st Century It is a Center-Left variant of Socialism of the 21st Century, which advocates the expansion of Social Welfare but without abolishing Capitalism and can be considered a version of Social Democracy in Latin America. Although some claim to seek an alternative model to Washington Consensus, many have adopted and continued economic policies considered Neoliberal in their countries and have embraced the Third Way. Moderate Socialism of the 21st Century have points in common with others Socialists of the 21st Century, such as Latin American integration and the relationship between regimes and left-wing parties in Latin America, but the main difference is their approach to capitalism. The great example we can see of Moderate Socialism of the 21st Century was the Workers' Party governments in Brazil under Lula and Dilma.

    History

    Brazil

    Lulism is an ideology based off of the Brazilian president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. it is economically and culturally center-left, internationalist, environmentalist and mildly authoritarian. Despite holding mostly culturally progressive views, Lula does not endorse abortion rights nor drug liberalization. He has also been the de facto leader of his political party, the Worker's Party, since its foundation and is usually associated with other left wing populists around the world.

    Variado (Varied)

    • Moderate Socialism of the 21st Century - My moderate son, but why did you abandon Socialism and adopt Capitalism and become just a Latin American version of Social Democracy? But even so, thank you for being a great companion.
    • Marxism–Leninism - We go to the elections together but we always end up arguing about socialist theory. Thanks for supporting me, though!
    • Castroism - Evo and Chavez were good friends with you, but you've grown too close to him and later turned too far to the opposite.
    • Guevarism and Neozapatismo - Too radical but at the end of the day we share most of our ideals and values.
    • Velasquismo and Getulism - Not socialist enough, but compared to what came after them , they were practically a blessing.
    • Peronism - Menem was a cringe neolibtard, but Kirchners are based, and Peron himself was a mixed bag.
    • Kleptocracy - Stop stealing from the poor for your own benefit, dammit!! Don't tell anyone about Odebrecht though.
    • Paleoconservatism - It's good that you oppose NATO imperialism, but you are anti-communist.

    • Putinism - Good trade and political partner, though I had to condemn your invasion of Ukraine in the UN (or at least abstain from the vote) to keep my other partners pleased.
    • Dengism - Another important trade partner, but your economics are socialist in name only. Also, please don't be like those gringos.
    • Fourth Theory - Appreciate your praise for us as well as a general sympathy towards socialism and our plights. But sometimes you sound scarily similar to someone I know too well, as your interpretation of 'Eurasianism' reminds me of the Monroe Doctrine more than anything.
    • Marxism-Leninism-Maoism - Disown Shining Path and we can be friends.
    • Trotskyism - You are fairly cool, as an Anti-Soviet socialist, but I concerned that your permanent revolution is similar to that Gringo.
