Capitalism will always try and prioritize profit over all else. Effective regulation(again that doesn’t currently exist same as your tankie utopia) would enforce protections and itself be protected from capitalist interference. The problem for either of us is that greed exists, some people will always want more. No governmental change will remove them from society, unless you want to debate what scale of greed is allowable before a summary execution. I’d say allowing their existence within a limited framework that protects the rest of us without murder is better.

You are still talking about what is in this debate rather than what could be. An ideology of black and white absolutism inherently makes a “purity test” hierarchy. It’s why you’re already attacking me as part of the problem instead of any attempt to change my perspective. Same issue happened at both the first and second international because Marx and his followers didn’t believe in antiwar general strikes. At least we agree on something much more left than we have.

Any system devolves to some form of shit of allowed.
