Democratic platform? Do I get to vote on Twitter's content rules?

Democratic as in protected by free speech laws as it is incorporated in a democracy. Not socialist as in no you don't get a say on how a private company operates as it also gets the right to freedom of speech and association.

It seems that you are not quite clear about the meaning of those terms.

> Socialism and democracy cannot be compared because it would just be like comparing apples to oranges since socialism is an economic system while democracy is a political ideology. An economic system defines the manner of producing and distributing the goods and services of society while a political system refers to the institutions that will comprise a government and how the system will work.

Ok this is tedious, socialized typically implies a higher level of government involvement (benefits, regulation, subsidies etc.) and often nationalization (like that socialist mexican oil platform that just lit the gulf on fire) than say a more free market economy democracy. Yes, technically you can have a socialist democracy. (Depending on how you stretch the word “democracy” you could have a democratic anything) However, in socialist democracies it is rare for companies to enjoy similar protections from government interference as the individuals do (and often the individuals are interfered with more as well). So a democratic company is a company in a nation whose democratic politics result in protections of the companies as well as the people. All political systems are fundamentally economic systems, lets not be naive.

World war 2 ended last century around the world, and in some ways a little bit in the US as well, but, interestingly the majority of the population still is quite unaware of this trivia.

Germany currently has many laws restricting free speech, I am not sure what WW2 has to do with this debate today?

So by fascist Germany you mean the current govt. Wow I'm falling behind on my current affairs. Did they really abandon democracy again?
