Capitalism in democracy is doing a great job too. Really? Doesn’t matter if it’s socialism, democracy or guided democracy or whatever variations of those you choose, capitalism and it’s greedy few beneficiaries are driving a wedge between the haves and have nots along with associated isolationism it creates. Eroding of the middle class is a sure fire way to discent and instability. AI and robotics are propelling this separation even more creating less jobs, not more.
Freedom is a great thing. When you can afford it. When you can’t you can expect the worst as is shown in ALL countries of the world.
When you neither understand socialism nor democracy and present your slanted view of your own interpretation that is prevalent from the ignorance of your own indoctrination then what hope is there to reconcile and move beyond the name calling into a honest open caring society that recognizes all the challenges that humanity faces today.
Please think before you flippantly disregard others as socialists, when a closer examination at home reveals your own socialist under ware.
