To be fair, there’s a lot of corruption that leads to this same conclusion on the communist and socialist side of things, historically speaking.
Personally, I don’t like any “pure” form of idealogical thinking. We need a mix of things to create a society where all people prosper.
I think the one thing they all have in common is corruption… We, the people of the world, need to end wealth inequality and corruption within any and all institutions.
No system is going to be perfect. However, the type of system plays a role in terms of the types behaviors it encourages. Communist style systems are much better at mitigating inequality than capitalist ones. We can also see a direct case study with USSR that transitioned from communism to capitalism, and all the horrors associated with that.
