so, you havent read the Communist Manifesto, Das Kapital, Trotsky's works, Mussolini's works, Mao's Quotations From The Chairman, the resolutions of the first through third COMINTERN or really anything but the wikipage on Anarcho-_________ism and you presume you are not only competent to argue what is and is not Marxism, but you seem to be asserting that you are an EXPERT on the subject.Sure, I take ideals from Anarchism, like not having faith in government or private industry, but I'm not an anarchist. That's what you can't understand, that not everyone is a purist. Second, Democratic socialism does NOT include a dictatorship of the proletariat, it's a reformist ideology through parliamentary means. It's not revolutionary socialism. What it shares with Marxism, is the idea that those who create the wealth should own the wealth. In other words its the idea that workers should band together so that they are not exploited for their labor. The idea of public ownership of industry and resources is where teabaggers like you get their panties in a bunch because they think that private property doesn't exist.
As for that Green Party portion, it's a party under the umbrella of ecological protection. You'll find socialists, capitalists, etc. There's a ten point policy they adhere to, which doesn't embrace an economic philosophy for that reason.
i dont usually go off on Appeals to Authority, but you sir are Ignorant.
Marx is the authority on Marxism, and until you familiarize yourself with the works of Marx, Engles, Lenin, Trotsky, Mussolini, Mao, and yes, even Hitler, you are incapable of arguing for or against any form of Marxism, Socialism, Communism, Fascism or Capitalism.
