And what is capitalism, or communism, or socialism? I feel like there are different definitions of those things.

[โ€“] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 day ago

Capitalism is a mode of production largely defined as one where private ownership is the principle aspect of the economy, and commodity production is the main form.

Socialism is a mode of production where public ownership is the principle aspect, and is more planned and controlled.

Communism is a post-socialist, global system that is fully collectivized and planned.
