I hear you bro, It's not that I'm not against having some socialist policies, I just don't trust the people in power to enact them with the interest of the public in mind
I also think the problem with this world is overpopulation. If you have too many people, then some of them become disposable. Look at how corporate media is flipping out now that the birth rate has dropped.
It's all about having enough people to exploit.
PS: I'm not the one that downvoted you.
Socialism is when the people take control and classes are abolished. So yeah I would hella agree I don't trust the people in power to do it. I don't want to do anything about the population of 8 billion, however it does clearly play into capital to have so many people to exploit.
