Hello

[AmericanCommunist]

I'm fairly new to socialism, only really researching and studying it for the past few months. So I'm not really sure which school of thought I identify or sympathize with, but really open to almost anything. I've looked into [FONT=sans-serif]Marxism–Leninism, various schools of anarchism, [/FONT]Trotskyism, [FONT=sans-serif]as well as [/FONT][FONT=sans-serif]Luxemburgism. I'd be interested to know what the rest of you believe and why you believe it. [/FONT][FONT=sans-serif][/FONT]

Hello, welcome to the forum. I'm a socialist. Communism is too extreme for me, while anarchism in my opinion is a naive utopia. Socialism on the other hand would be a system in which everyone could have a happy life, full of opportunities. I think it is the most left-side ideology which takes human nature too into consideration, therefore it would not end in a catastrophe if we tried to implement it.

(For the others in the forum: I don't want to start a debate about it. It is my opinion. If you don't agree start a post about it, or write me a PM. But let's not discuss it here.)

Welcome!

Don't get too hung up on the different schools of thought. There's really only one major difference which is Marxist-Leninism. The creation of a vangaurd, the one party state, etc. Most everything else is very theoretical, and unless your a representative of a specific club, there's no need to identify as a Maoist or a Trotskyist.
