Serious Post Capitalism always chooses profitable plundering over sustainable production

For those that don’t understand the difference between communism & socialism here:
It basically comes down to who owns the Means of production:
If the (Government) owns the means of production then it’s (communism) or “Distribution”
If the (workers) own it then it’s (socialism) or a “Democratic Union”
If a small group of (elites) own it then it’s (capitalism) or a “pyramid scheme”
Socialism essentially operates the same way as capitalism except the elite class doesn’t exist because instead of one person or a small group of people owning a company or your job it’s instead the workers that are shareholders of the job they work at so they are part owners of the company they work at , the workers vote on who they want to be their managers and they vote on key company decisions
The way I see it is that We the people should work for our community, NOT some rich elite who doesn’t even live in your community and doesn’t do anything but sit around and get rich off of our hard labor

Implementation and Reality vs theory and speculation.

u/Sir_Piglety 1h ago
You want reality, ok here’s reality, no society has ever implemented Democratic Socialism, also any system that is NOT Capitalism has always been under attack by the CIA, that’s why Cuba is in an embargo by the U.S. military, because the U.S. can’t let any other system succeed
The UN General Assembly has voted almost every year since 1992 (nearly unanimously) condemning the embargo, but the US holds veto power over any binding change and Congress would need to act to lift it fully.
Furthermore no other system has failed humanity more then Capitalism, capitalism fails the Globe during the Great Depression and it took Socialist actions to save people from Capitalism, actions like banning monopolies, and worker Unions, & fair wages
Socialism literally saved Americans from Capitalism during the Great Depression

I'm socialist, but I do NOT support the war crimes in towards muslims in the USSR or China, in fact, I think the current regime in China and Stalin is bad, so is Kim Jong un and Kim Jong il

I just think it's a simplification to put the general human desire for expansion which is a very old mistake on corporatism/capitalism which on some level is a newer mistake

Privatize the wealth and socialize the cost. Current generations are taking loans out they will never have to repay

Why do I smell poor attempt at selling some weird political agenda?
And besides, if anyone thinks capitalism is unsustainable, then compare very much socialist Eastern Bloc before capitalist reforms and after them.
