From all the concern trolling I see in the other instances it’s clear that there’s no winning over these people. Everything is “Kremlin propaganda” to them. I do think a lot of chapos did go a little overboard with the PPB, but even thoughtful responses were met with the “hateful rhetoric” and “Kremlin talking points” BS. As always, it is to the Global South we must look to for any hope in the future…
That’s a great question. Most people don’t even know what supporting capitalism means. Propaganda being what it is, capitslism just equals good in most people’s eyes in the west
Capitalism and socialism to most westerners might as well refer to moral character traits rather than distinct political structures. Capitalism just means something like ingenuity but also greed. Socialism means altruism but also bland uniformity.
The more politically minded westerner might think capitalism means wealth disparity and socialism means everyone gets paid the same.
Yeah the political illiteracy in the West is horrendous, and of course its by design
