    Socialist democracy is just democracy in socialist countries, which has nothing to do with the article or those depicted on the cover. I thought you were talking about social democracy, considering these are social democrats.

      I get the mix-up then. It’s not about those depicted, it’s the obvious implications based on how they’re depicted

        China’s a socialist country on the path to communism. Newsweek is mocking social democrats by depicting them as though they are socialists and communists. The implication is that they are socialists, and not social democrats.

        Are we in agreement, then? Reading your comment, it seems you think they are socialists.
