/r/OhioSocialists
Welcome to r/Ohiosocialists! This is a community to discuss current events in our world from an anti-capitalist perspective and to organize within our state.
Socialism as a political system is defined by democratic and social control of the means of production by the workers for the good of the community rather than capitalist profit, based fundamentally on the abolition of private property relations.
Socialism is also a sociopolitical movementdedicated to the critique and dismantling of exploitative structures, including economic, gendered, ethnic oppression. Socialism, as a movement, confronts these different systems of oppression as mutually conditioning, intersectional, and/or dialectically related within the current hegemonic order. It seeks to overcome oppression in a holistic manner without neglecting any particular axis so that it might be eliminated and genuine social emancipation may be realized. We recognize that Socialism cannot be achieved while structural oppression continues and workers are divided. We look forward to your participation in our sub, but please be mindful of our posting guidelines. Are you new to socialist ideas? Wondering what alternatives to capitalism exist? Please check out our educational materials and wiki further down in this sidebar.

Hello, how can I contribute?
I am an advocate for democratic socialism. I live in Ohio by Columbus I was wondering in what ways can I begin volunteering my time to further the just cause?

Vote for the Socialists in the ModelUSGov Presidential Elections!
Hey, comrades, I'm a member of the Socialist Party over on Reddit's model US government simulator, /r/ModelUSGov. MUSGOV is an active simulation of the American political system with functioning federal and state levels of government.
Currently, the Socialist Party, the biggest leftist party in the sim, controls the presidency, and we are aiming to keep it this election season, as well as do what we can to keep reactionary Democrats and market-loving Libertarians out of office. The more people we have, the more Socialists who can be elected, and the closer we get to pushing through our platform, which you can find here.
Click here to vote. I really hope to see you registering for our party; if you have any further questions, ask away!
