You're advocating for the "lesser evil" option without having a basic understanding of leftist ideology. It's still capitalism, it's still a terrible right winger framework.
you didn't answer the question at all. call it whatever you want, I'd rather have something that I can see working - than something that I've never seen work. Unfettered capitalism is cancer, sure. But that's not exclusive to capitalism - government without restraints usually is miserable - see the USSR.
if you can show me communism working I'm down to learn new things; but you can't point at liberal social democracies and say "that's still in the terrible right winger framework" when it's functioning far better than the US or the communist countries I've seen.
Another data point would be great, but from my POV all I can see is left---(social democracies)---center-----right (capitalist fascism)
note there's no (communist society) on that spectrum.
Communism has never been implemented. You're unaware of what communism is, so how would you know anyways? Social Democracy Isn't on the left side of the spectrum. There's no such thing as a leftist that supports capitalism. Capitalism does not work without exploitation.
China is working towards communism, and the USSR made huge progress, all while at war with the west the entire time.
I'm busy reading and can't be bothered to continue this conversation. Later.
