Obfuscating systemic problems of capitalism to individuals like Pinochet, Hitler, Batista, Churchill, Trump, etc is one effective method of protecting capitalism from accurate analysis. Socialist countries are run by the working class, and yet are also demonized and reduced merely to the actions of individual socialist leaders to play off of the prior propaganda model.
And are these socialist countries in the room with us now?
Socialist countries do exist, yes.
Such as?
The PRC, DPRK, Cuba, Vietnam, and Laos are all definitively socialist, and quasi-socialist states like Venezuela, Nicaragua, Belarus, etc. also exist.
