    Of course they haven’t, and while I’m happy to be proved wrong, I’m sure they’re all enjoying the benefits of living in a democratic country while cosplaying communists.

      Do you think your bourgeois democracy is actually democratic? If you are for democracy you’d be a socialist.

          No, capitalism vs socialism is; who owns the means of production, the capitalist class or the working class?

        I haven’t stated my position. Yes, I think our democratic processes could be better in many countries.

        I also understand the reality that there is no simple 'one system" solution that is just going to miraculously fix everything.
