azureScapegoat is a Marxist YouTube channel with over 80,000 subscribers.[1] The most-viewed video, with 3.2 million views, is The Difference Between Socialism, Communism, and Marxism Explained by a Marxist, which provides a concise, if not entirely comprehensive, taxonomy of many major socialist ideologies, along with some brief overviews of their main tenants.[2] The taxonomical diagram from the video is reproduced below.

(well, there would be a picture, if I had permission to create new pages)

A diagram demonstrating the taxonomical relationship of various socialist ideologies.

  • Capitalism
    • Revisionist Marxism
      • Social Democracy
  • Socialism
    • Communism
      • Anarchism
      • Classical Marxism
        • Orthodox Marxism
          • Democratic Socialism
          • Luxemburgism
          • Leninism
            • Marxism-Leninism
            • Maoism
            • Hoxhaism
          • Castroism
          • Trotskyism
        • Revisionist Marxism
          • Democratic Socialism

Note that Democratic Socialism stretches across both Orthodox Marxism and Revisionist Marxism, but does not advance across to Social Democracy. Democratic Socialism is a less well defined ideology, often incorporating contradictory ideas.
