"What's the difference between Socialism and Marxism?"

"Well, Socialism is when you do the things I like but Marxism is when you do the things I don't like."

Do you frequently have full debates with yourself so that you have a hundred percent control over the replies, and therefore always win? Is that productive in your mind?
