In case you don’t know, they explicitly use the term socialist to describe the Federation economy in SNW. I was wondering if ppl liked or hated it? I like it personally since it’s not a dodge like “new world economy”

    You’re right.

    There’s a bad habit of calling socialists the countries that should be called something like"capitalist but a bit to the left"

      Also countries that probably started out socialist but took a sharp turn into authoritarianism and under-the-hood oligarchy… You know who you are.

      Socialism isn’t a binary yes/no thing. It’s an economic ideology that can be realized in many different ways
