The only real economy is a decentralized small business economy. Corporatism is just communism wearing a mask. Socialism is communism wearing so much make up it really only fools people who wish it was prettier than it is and buy into the illusion because they want it to be real.

Capitalism isn’t “bad” either. They’re both tools in how a nation operates their economies and governments. You can identify the short comings of both without making it some moral inquisition.

Going off that logic feudalism, monarchism, slavery, etc aren’t bad either. While I believe capitalism is bad that wasn’t the point of the post. Americans have been brainwashed for decades into thinking socialism is blasphemy

Well, feudalism and monarchism weren’t “bad” either. Slavery isn’t like any of those because it requires the removal of agency on groups of people. I agree on your point about socialism though. I don’t believe it’s the savor that societies need, but I definitely think some aspects of it are extremely important for a civilizations survival.

I’d argue it’s the savior we currently need- America has gone too far into capitalism, if it were more like the nordics then the empire could have lasted another dozen generations. Though I’d also argue that feudalism and monarchism are similarly bad for the same reason we agree slavery is- it takes away agency of the people.

If you’re really a communist do you own property or do you share everything with your community? Do you walk the walk, or did it just feel edgy and cool to be a part of something?
