This is a fundamental misunderstanding of what socialism and capitalism are. Simplified it’s who owns the means of production, that is basically the “capital” in the name “capitalism”, in socialism these means of production have a shared ownership. Now you can have a discussion of what that means, if state ownership counts or whatever but as long as individuals own the means of production it’s not socialism no matter how much you tax them(it would still be an improvement to tax them more it’s just not socialism)

1·3 years agoCategorizing something doesn’t mean all subcategories are the same. While you can argue that it’s overgeneralizing that would be a different argument. Leftist is used outside of American Politics. I’m not American btw.

3·3 years agoThat’s nonsense, if you said liberal there would be at least some truth to it but leftist?
What correct statement are you even talking about how is that hypothetical relevant at all? Is a format a fact now?
Exactly, this argument is so weird, even if the assumption was true. “People are naturally greedy so we should have a system that allows them to do as much damage as possible”
