Re: Is there a topic you don't bring up on fs because of how controversial your opinion is?

I think it's counterproductive to attack it. It takes focus away from achievable goals.

Plus, capitalism isn't the root of all evils in society. Just dismantling it doesn't actually solve any problems. Poverty and social inequality don't just disappear when you remove it. I also don't believe it's possible to have a healthy economy without it.

I'm a Socialist because I think a govt has a responsibility to provide basic care and resources to it's populace. Right now I live in a country that's failing to do that, and I think a greater degree of Socialism would help that. But I think that some balance has to be maintained or else it will fall into one extreme or the other. I don't want to live in the USSR again, but I also don't want to live in The Jungle, if that makes any sense.

I partly agree with you. I consider myself a socialist for the same reasons you do. But I don't think there's anything wrong with verbally attacking capitalism, because I find the philosophy behind it to be basically abhorrent. It's the idea that people should have free reign to do what they want, that a lucky few should be entitled to all the wealth and resources that exist, and if you're born into a situation where you don't have access to those resources, tough luck. I think fundamentally a society should care for all its people. I also don't think anybody has a plan to "dismantle capitalism" without replacing it with something because that's basically impossible; capitalism is by definition the lack of regulations on the economy; you can't take away something that isn't there. The only way to destroy capitalism is to actively put a different system in place.
