[suggestion] Reword some questions #84

Open Soulplexis opened 2 years ago

Soulplexis commented 2 years ago

Some of the questions will either leave both sides answering the same thing or cause other confusion. so they should be re-worded. here are the ones i could find

"Socialist political parties should participate in liberal democratic elections." change to "Socialist parties should primarily focus on participating in liberal democratic elections." "The state can be best defined as a monopoly on violence and oppression." change to "Any state can be best defined as a monopoly on violence and oppression." "''From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs'' is a good principle." change to "''From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs'' is an applicable principle" "A world socialist republic is a realistic and desirable goal." change to be either realistic or desirable. it can be one or the other sometimes "The means of production, such as factories and farms, must be publicly owned." change to "The means of production, such as factories and farms, must be owned by a state on behalf of the workers." i assume this is what its asking "Reforming capitalist society to achieve better rights for workers is desirable." change to "Reforming capitalist society to achieve better rights for workers is more desirable than a revolution." thats all thanks

I can't speak for the rest of them, but as for

"The means of production, such as factories and farms, must be publicly owned." change to "The means of production, such as factories and farms, must be owned by a state on behalf of the workers." i assume this is what its asking

The code says that it can add up to +5 to revolution and scientific, not centralization. Neither of which would mean that it is about state ownership. Therefore, I think this question should stay the same.
