Due to the fact we didnt have any socialist system jet I would agree with this statement
Removed by mod
I don’t disagree
I don’t disagree that modern socialism has yet to be achieved, but to claim no socialist systems have ever existed is a very settler-colonialist take. Even Marx himself knew better:
“to look beyond the Middle Ages into the primitive age of every people—and this corresponds to the socialist tendency, though these learned men [Georg Ludwig von Mauer, known for his studies of early German communal society, and Jakob Grimm, the philologist and cultural historian] have no idea they [the “primitive” communal forms] are connected with it [the socialist tendency]. And they are then surprised to find what is newest in what is oldest.” source

Capitalism is okay
Capitalism is great when there’s proper government controls in place.

This is my (basic) understanding of capitalism. I’m no economist, but it seems to me that if we had a government that wasn’t owned by corporations, but that instead looked out for the rights and protections of the little guy while the economically elite did their thing, we wouldn’t have a perfect system but at least a better system than we do currently. I think a lot of people balk at socialist / communist ideas because of the idea of putting the economic power of redistributing wealth into the hands of corrupt government officials seems like an easy way to drive the wealth gap even bigger than it already is. Or maybe I’m just talking out of my ass lol

“In socialist state we are all equal some are just more equal than others”. Various
Nope. It doesn’t matter how well your government is, the rich will get richer and the poor will get poorer. Then the rich will eventually buy the government to even further increase their profits.
A. I never said we have proper controls in place.
B. Fuck off with your rhetoric. I live in a corporatocracy, not a democracy, dumbass.
