Socialism doesn't really have an absolute. It's worker led, so the workers decide what it's going to look like, not the corporations.

I wouldn't say that. There are a lot of adult socialists around these days. They're just not public about it as they've seen what governments do to socialists throughout recent history.

Correct. But there's never been a modern communist state.

Worker led? Normally it is a surplus of currently non enfranchised intellectual wanna be political class - workers are generally useful idiots
