    -Are average Americans “capitalists” because they sell their labour for money in a market economy?
    -Is China a socialist nation?
    -Were the National Socialists actual socialists?

    If your answer to any of the above was “yes” you need to take a step back and ask yourself some questions, namely:

    -What is a capitalist?
    -What makes a nation socialist?
    -What is authoritarianism, and is it distinct from socialism?

        What does RIDF stand for in this context? Not “Rural Infrastructure Development Fund” is it?

          I’ve never seen it before either. Maybe I’m just not online or rightoid enough to know.

          RIDF stands for Russian Internet Defense Force: those who are paid to further the foreign policy goals of Putin by shitposting online, but also includes the pro-Russian, anti-West, or just plain easily-manipulated idiots who do it for free. Concern trolling, forum sliding, sealioning, simping for the failed states and ideologies in Russia’s sphere of friendship, these are all RIDF characteristics. See also: 50 Yuan Army.
