@captainpawpawchannel and based on your extremist definitions, "real" capitalism hasn't been tried either, because that would basically be anarchy, no taxes, no regulations. Basically nobody wants that, even hardcore libertarians are in favor of very minimal government oversight and regulation. Pretty much every economy throughout history has been mixed.

@captainpawpawchannel could be that whole mass genocide thing that socialism always causes. That kinda turns people off.

It's always someone else's fault when socialism fails.

@godonlyknows13 well I can't speak for everyone, but the famine and genocide are usually pretty big concerns for most people. Those things are generally frowned upon.

@princejellyfish3945 if the government is interfering, then it's not capitalism. When someone refers to a nation such as the US as "capitalist", they just mean that it's more capitalist than socialist. Which is actually debatable, the US has some of the most expansive regulation and welfare systems in the world in many ways.

You would have to change the fundamental nature of humanity to achieve that, in other words, strip the humanity part away from humanity. That's why socialism is so evil, because they only way to try and achieve it is to just kill everyone who doesn't go along.

@MakeCaliGreatAgain because socialism can't create anything, it can only extract from what other people create.

@Drkon6 people are advocating for a better life for Americans, that's why we're against socialism.

@Matthew.E.Kelly. but successful people generally aren't going to willfully surrender their wealth and resources to lazy people who don't feel like working. So socialism requires very authoritarian government backing, it just can't work otherwise.

If socialists were smart enough to understand what socialism is, they wouldn't be socialists.

It's almost like people like living in the most prosperous nation in the history of civilization.

Holy shit leftists are insane. The world would burn to the ground in a heartbeat if you had your way.

@captainpawpawchannel lmao, the good ole "that wasn't real socialism" bullshit🤣 ever crossed your mind that if "fake" socialism always ends in death and destruction, maybe that's what real socialism is? It can't fail that many times and still keep being tried. The genocide is the point. They just sell it to stupid people as something else.

Capitalism just means you get to keep what you earn, nothing more and nothing less. All of the problems that leftists cry about are actually problems with government corruption, not capitalism. And you're the ones who vote for bigger government. Can't fix stupid.
