I mean, capitalist do the same thing with socialism every day. It takes a lot of propaganda to get people to believe that caring for your neighbors = bad.

    As someone who supports socialist movements I 100% agree. But I really think the big problem in the world right now is the misunderstanding of capital basically. People think capital or money or anything that involves government is capitalism? Or something? I don't really understand.

    But just because people we might call capitalists pearl clutch about socialism doesn't give someone the space to do the same back, or really just lie/be ignorant. We can definitely discuss the flaws of economic systems or the system we live under and some solutions. But stamping "CAPITALISM BAD" or "SOCIALISM BAD" literally gets us nowhere.

    Hard dissagree, the average American reads at a 5th grade level.

    If you want to have a higher level coveraation, sure, but for general messaging: CAPITALISM BAD is the only thing that will get through.
