so⋅cial⋅ism /ˈsoʊʃəˌlɪzəm/
–noun
1. a theory or system of social organization that advocates the vesting of the ownership and control of the means of production and distribution, of capital, land, etc., in the community as a whole.
2. procedure or practice in accordance with this theory.
3. (in Marxist theory) the stage following capitalism in the transition of a society to communism, characterized by the imperfect implementation of collectivist principles.
Please to be understanding what it is you're saying when you use the word, okay? The word has a meaning.
