You’re far out of your depth if you are linking the Wiki article on “Socialism” to a Marxist that is recommending a synopsis on Lenin to you.

Read the link, socialism date way before Lenin and it's not a political party.

Read the link, everyone knows that. You don't have a grand trump card in the wiki link. We are specifically referring to Marxist Socialism, not the nebulous historical usage of the term, because we are on a Marxist community.

That's a good clarification. I didn't know this is a marxist community it's not specified anywhere

The hammer and sickle if nothing else should give it away. You can talk about other forms of Socialism if you want.
