Hey I think you posted this in the wrong community, surely it was meant for Unpopular Opinions?

Do firefighters and police own the means of production??

Someone doesn't know the definition of socialism. At best these are social services.

Also police literally have a long history of violently putting down unionization efforts despite having a union themselves.

Socialism is when the government does stuff. The more stuff the government does, the more socialister it is! And when the government does a whole bunch of stuff, that's GOMmUNISM!!1!

About which definition of the word to use, or that one possible definition applies?
