      I think its hard to argue against cooperatives. They have a good track record, are member owned, and democratically controlled. Its a form of stateless socialism and a great place to start handing the means of production over to the proletariat.

        I like that, sounds neutral enough. It’s interesting to imagine the decision making processes - democratically controlled, stateless society sounds a bit contradictory on the first thought.

          well … i’ve heard a lot of people saying “communication is key to a healthy relationship”

          and i would say “communication” is auditorially close to “communism” too.

            Sure, but you’re trying to convince rabid anti-communist/anti-socialist people to accept the ideals under a new name. Don’t give them anything that might preload their expectations.

        Social democracy?

        Edit: on a second thought that might also not work, we might need marketing department consultation
