Has distributism ever been tried?

>it's the dumb distributism poster who thinks distributism isn't just socialism but with nominal property rights even though rights to private property are determined in a socialist manner because hurr durr americans think socialism means state owned everything dictatorship

That's basically just socialism though

>socialism
>emphasizing personal restraint, rights of the unborn, and decentralization

pick one

>its similar to socialism why use different name

>emphasizing personal restraint, rights of the unborn, and decentralization
>it's an another american doesn't know what socialism episode and creates a new word for real socialism that has never been tried

Socialism isn't inherently opposed to any of those things

It's been tried, it's just that it's usually crushed almost immediately by reactionaries, such as in the cases of Spain in 1936 or Hungary 20 years later

>we support guilds

Once, It worked amazingly.

Distributism isn't socialism, it's basically medieval-type guild system, designed to prevent the monopoly of big capital and the power of (((banking))).
Socialism wants to do away with property, state, and society as a whole. Completely different thing especially considering distributism was spawned by Catholic traditionalism.

>I want the outcome of socialism but I'm going to pretend it isn't socialism because I don't like the word
Syndicalist socialism

No, socialism literally wants to abolish property, and hierarchy. Distributism doesn't.

more like socialism is a secularized, modernized version of Medieval European civilization.

How can socialism want to abolish property if they want collective ownership of property? Where does it say socialism is against all forms of hierarchy? You are projecting a lot.

And distributism is for clueless clergies, lol

user, do you think the middle ages were socialist?

No thanks, I don't want somebody's holy book to tell me how to live.

It's almost like if socialism were actually the best system it would be able to win these competitions or something.
