Here’s something to think about: Are most people incapable of living in capitalism and would fare better in socialism, or would most people feel like their growth has stagnated in socialism and are basically surviving with their basic needs being met, but not really thriving? Do you think humans by nature are lazy, or competitive? Do you think humans by nature want to constantly grow, experience new things, etc. or stay in a village?
You say I have superiority complex. I say I choose something a majority would choose too (which by logic invalidates superiority argument). This is democracy, isn’t it?

False. A majority of people who lived in the Eastern Block (except for a few countries like Baltics or Poland) say that life was better during socialism, every poll that comes out confirms this. The people who are so afraid of socialism are the 90s kids who have been indoctrinated in the “horrors of gommunism” while completely ignoring the very real horrors of capitalism.
Think about what you just said. “Back when we had more money, life was better than now when east is poor after wars and collapse”.
It’s funny that you excluded the countries that are not considered broken.
Work mobility was very much a thing in the Eastern Block except during exceptional times such as WW2. Housing in the USSR was actually primarily accessed through your work union, not through the government, so it was up to you where you wanted to work and therefore live
You could not choose the housing. Queues were often unrealistically long everywhere around, so “freedom to move” was often only on paper. Some cities around were straight up blocked from “peasants”, including one nearby me. It’s not as smooth and easy as you describe it, I have way more freedom now in capitalism
I’ve also lived in a smaller village, and many people are forced out of there by the economic situation of not being able to find any job because capitalism moves all jobs to the big city. Are you purposefully lying, or just misinformed?
This also happened in the union. Where do you think the masses for popping industry cities came from? So many dead villages lying around. Few years ago I traveled to the place my parents grew up in (but were forced to abandon due to jobs moving to city) and it was hard to find, almost forgotten and overtaken by nature. Weird argument, and on top of that to say I’m purposefully lying? Lmao even.
So, like a socialist country, a bunch of countries imitating socialist urban design, and another socialist country? Nothing to do with political spectrum?
These countries with good urban planning have vastly different ideologies and political systems. What was Ancient Rome, capitalistic or socialistic? Urban planning rarely has anything to do with what party is currently at the government. They’re often independant systems even where they just allocate the budget and “ok, go do your best”.
The European urban planning mostly played out before words like socialism or democracy existed.
Why are you so hurt by people having a right to retirement pensions, worker rights, extremely high unionization rates, and guaranteed employment?
Because the people who lives thru socialism have this “I deserve everything, give me all basic needs without me having to put anything back into the society” mindset while their retirement pensions are non-existent because socialist states don’t survive long

I’m aware your comment is very likely a joke, but I still got triggered.
Isn’t if funny how people born in Capitalism wants socialism, but people born in socialism want (balanced, not late stage) capitalism, yet both consider themselves leftists?
Guaranteed housing
See image above. You can’t choose. The house is given to you wherever the government wants you to work till you kick the bucket. You felt more like a slave in socialist state than in capitalistic one.
human-centered urban planning organized around moving on foot and in public transit
Like China, Half of capitalistic EU, and North Korea? This has nothing to do with any political spectrum and was commonly done due to historical factors or resource/car availability.
universal healthcare, free education
Well, just because there is a one country that managed to screw it up, does not mean it cannot be part of capitalism. See: Rest of the world
abolition of unemployment
Depends on how you look at it. I’m sure there is zero unemployment rates in concentration camps too.

Seriously, what’s up with the amount of scam/phishing ads on Google lately? Seems like they stopped moderating it altogether. Seeing AI generated president of my country pushing for crypto scams on Google news feed is something else, and after a report google straight up said “This does not break our ToS”

I feel like this is one of those things governments might get paranoid about because their treasuries are based on a high (constantly increasing increasing due to limited amount) value of gold. Imagine one country figuring out how to produce gold and then every other treasury starts losing it’s value.
