I don't know if this article totally hits the mark, but as a general guide for what most socialists (in the West, at least) mean when they call themselves such, it's not bad. Few of today's young socialists are looking to re-create the USSR or "Communist" China. They rather want democratic socialism, internet tankies notwithstanding.
I've been reading this book.

I'm almost finished and, although much of it isn't new to me, I like the democratic socialist vision the author promotes. Sure, it's reformist rather than revolutionary, but it's a damn good start.

Yeah. I'm pretty sure I'm just a run-of-the-mill democratic socialist. I'm not revolutionary enough to be an anarchist. I support the anarcho-communist ideal, but I play things too safe to be a real revolutionary.
I'll engage in some (very safe) direct action and maybe march in a protest or something, but that's about as radical as I'll likely ever be.
