Distributist Social Democracy

Distributist Social Democracy, clipped to DistSocDem, is an economically center-left and  culturally centre (but variable) ideology which is essentially, like its own name suggests, an altered version of  Social Democracy that functions operating inside an economic system where  Distributism is fully implemented unlike normal  SocDem which would function in a  Capitalist economy.

Rather than wanting to 100% change Distributism to suit “socialist views”, he believes that both  Social Democracy and  Distributism must co-exist and reform themselves to create a  merger of the two, leaning into both socialist, democratic and religious values.

DistSocDem finds that a lot of welfare programs and business regulations, when achieved through reform rather than revolution, can lead to higher prosperity for the people, rather than systems of  unregulated (laissez-faire) capitalism or  socialism, ideologies whom he sees as equally flawed and exploitative, while favoring economic mechanisms such as  cooperatives and member-owned mutual organizations as well as small businesses and large-scale competition law reform such as antitrust legislations.
