No substantive comment here - just a thank you note. This is a clear exposition of something I more-or-less know, that I can use as a reference to give to people who think "socialist" means "anyone left of themselves" or similar.
One question - the United States left wing currently seems to have a major interest in changing the words people use, and the heroes they remember (lots of statue removal, and tabooing of terminology deemed offensive). Is there an equivalent in Europe, and does it correlate with specific political types?
