Communism[edit]
The party has never officially identified itself as a communist party, is it correct to refer to it as a communist party? They argue that chaebol should confiscate their assets because they made money unfairly, which does not appear to be against capitalism itself. Mureungdowon (talk) 07:18, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
People's democracy is, of course, a communist concept. However, it was also used by student activists in the 1980s in South Korea. Therefore, it can be used in a unique context in South Korea, and if ignored, the Justice Party or even the Democratic Party can become a communist party. During the right-wing dictatorship of the 1980s, the South Korean government blocked a lot of foreign information. Thus, South Korean resistance activists embraced revolutionary socialism, but almost all turned liberal or progressive since the 2000s. Still, in South Korea, the terms PD and NL are sometimes used when dividing factions within the leftist camp. Therefore, it is excessive to conclude that you are a communist just because you used the term alone. Mureungdowon (talk) 07:30, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
- In South Korea, the term PD means a leftist who opposes imperialism but rejects nationalist ideology. This does not necessarily mean that even if "PD" were a communist in the 1980s, "PD" are still a communist. Mureungdowon (talk) 07:32, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
