“[W]hile evil people and impostors will go on from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived.” 2 Timothy 3:13 (ESV)
For those who fancy socialism, consider this: Russia used to be the USSR, the United Soviet Socialist Republic.
Does anyone doubt that the USSR was a communist nation with a communist government?
The phrase “democratic socialism” was introduced by Vladimir Lenin in 1919 to get the Russian people to embrace communism. He softened the description so people would embrace communism.
Socialism is always an intermediate stop on the road toward communism.
What you call something isn’t nearly as important as what it actually is.
