The problem with socialist ideas is that they fanaticize society into believing that politicians are the solution, and they end up ignoring that these people who offer them socialist solutions do not defend checks and balances on power, they understand their own ideology, socialism, as democracy itself, and adherence to the party or discourse as compulsory, excluding others with violence and expulsion from universities and any forum for discussion.

This constant promotion of utopian, savior-like ideas incites people to commit murders, such as that of Charlie Kirk, among others, and produces horrible dictatorships of poverty such as those in Cuba or Venezuela, regardless of the variant of socialism, since in principle neither Hugo Chávez nor Fidel Castro claimed to be socialists; both claimed to be democrats and constitutionalists.

It is against this totalitarian rise, with its belief in the climate emergency and an absolutist global dictatorship of elites as saviors, that libertarians and patriots are fighting.

Its also the replacement of natural balanced systems like free market with controlled systems like equal distribution with no regard to production of resources. No matter how good you try to plan you can never beat a naturally balancing system.

The first socialist, the Count of Saint Simon, defended a different idea. He was accused by Marx of being utopian, but in my opinion, Saint Simon's ideas are more realistic and pragmatic than Marx's, despite the risk inherent in using this ideology to seize power with populist rhetoric supposedly in favor of the oppressed.

Does Henri de Saint Simon's socialism still require the abolition of all rights including property rights? Does it still include the central planners (aka the government) controlling the means of production? Does it still include equalize all salaries of the working class?

Does it still rely on the oppressed/oppressor myth to trick people in to accepting it. Would this kind of socialist work to destroy America and destroy capitalism?

Just asking because I never heard of this guy.

And I will always prefer restoring the nation we had at our founding, minus slavery. I will always prefer freedom and individual responsibility over any government meddling into the lives of the individual. I firmly believe that free market economics, while not perfect, is the very best economic philosophy ever devised by man. And nothing else has ever come close to it and that we haven't had a free market for well over a century. Everything that is wrong with out economy has been created by socialistic policies that have been forced on us over the last century. That you cannot point to our economic system and call it capitalism. There are elements of capitalism but we are a corporatist economy, on our way to fascism, then socialism and finally communism unless both parties make a 180 and turn back to who we used to be, where the rich get richer and so do the poor.
