Is a revolution in communist terms when socialism overthrows capitalism?

Update:

socialism is communism, look it up, I learned that in a highschool class about capitalist and communist systems.

    Communists don't want a socialist system, they want a communist system. They are not the same thing.

    not necessarily

    it may be overthrowing a monarchy

    it is perceived generally to be a movement of the people but in fact most revolutions since the French Revolution have been instigated by illuminati New World Order

    ie Russian Revolution of 1917 - really a coup d etat

    Socialism does NOT overthrow capitalism, it brings capitalism under government regulation.

    So, no it does not.

  • Socialism is crappy, but communism is some real damn ****. It's not a revolution, it's devolution.

    that would be a revolution in any terms.

    the commies believe that socialism and then communism are steps to the next & most advanced condition of society, anarchism.
