Spoiler SPD is the Social Democratic Party of Germany, one of the two big parties and tend to be center/center-left.. and as they are social democratic they aren't socialist (as, social democratic doesn't fall under the umbrella of socalist) (just so people aren't confused of what the abbreviations are.. ) Link to post Share on other sites
ThaHoward Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Hush now. These are the same people who use Denmark (who are more capitalist than USA) and Norway (where the vast majority support capitalism and are opposed to socialism) as examples of successful (there is none) socialist countries Link to post Share on other sites

God of the Forest Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 LMAO, I run in the middle across the board Economic Axis: Centrist Diplomatic Axis: Balanced Civil Axis: Moderate Societal Axis: Neutral Closest match: Centrism Results The reason for this though is because most of those questions were incredibly vague in my opinion and I'm always one of those people who need the facts, context, and information behind anything in order to be able to make an appropriate decision. Shocker. Lol, The whole time I was like "well that depends on what you mean by *insert question here*" Link to post Share on other sites

(same as my country, I don't feel like there were many good guys in the cold war.) to quote Marge, from Fargo: "So, that was Mrs. Lundegaard on the floor in there. And I guess that was your accomplice in the wood chipper. And those three people in Brainerd. And for what? For a little bit of money? There's more to life than a little money, you know.

ThaHoward Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 The Cold War? Yes, but they weren't the major player there really. Also their involvement were more forced than volntairly. We saw what happened at first when the socialist states wanted to go their own way and were brutally put down. The second time around they actually got independence. Link to post Share on other sites
