I agree in general. What you believe wrongly is the use of words. We have learned to think that liberalism or communism or socialism are something like abominations, while capitalsim and conservative ideas in general, are a good and pure thing.
We should get our words (and thoughts cosecutively) strait, or we are going to be fooled for ever, by those manipulators.
For instance, if I told you that I am a Christian and I steel peoples houses, would you believe that I am a Christian or call me one? No! You would say that I am an ipostor.
That is what has happened to Communism and Liberalism in general. Since they are the only answer to humanity’s malfunctions and pains, the system that HAS ALWAYS been run by the oligarchy of the plutocrats, had to defame it by the construction of a regime that would become the scapegoat for all the bad things we would not want to have. So they said “Beware of the commies, they will take your houses”. But that never happened, because it was their (the capitalist’s) BANKS that took our houses, or am I wrong?
Do not forget that the first Church was communistic in its way of conduct and everyone was happy. Christianity was meant to be a political system and NOT a new religion and that is the real reason that it was percsecuted by the Romans. It was a threat to the foundations of the Empire (which by the way, was a capitalistic oligarchy of the “few rich-many poor”). When Christianity became the “Religion of the State” it was her own undoing. So yes Constanine was really a genious. But this is for another story.
So was the starting of the Athenian Democracy by SOLON, the wise man who gave the first laws to the first REAL Democracy of the world (and maybe the only one ever since). The one that we foolishly think that we are copying, but in fact we are copying the ancient aristocratic oligarchies AND NOT democracy in any way.
Every social right that we are loosing now, was conquered by communists -even and especially - in America. The five days of work and weekend or the social security (which was in its best in Europe). And we are loosing everything now (if we haven’t already) because of the advancement of the so called “free market” that uses slaves as workers (slaves with diplomas but slaves non the less).
So please start speaking with the right words and do not be afraid to use them. It will change the way you are thinking because words change our brain. Your uinversities (and ours and all the world’s) are NOT teaching leftism or liberalism, but a new much more vicious form of capitalism that is disguised as sheep but is the woolf that will eventually destroy humanity if not stopped.
And we have very little time. When the robots and A.I’s take everyone’s jobs (something that has already begun) then we will see that it is too late.
