What I think is that you know just enough history to be able to loosely connect the word "socialism" with Bad Things (common ones being that both NSDAP and USSR had "socialist" in their name, or that Venezuela is "socialist") and you're incurious enough ("I know, I just don't care") to not bother understanding whether that's true, how any of those Bad Things actually came to be, whether that was due to anything related to "socialism" or even what that word actually means.
Doesn't bother me either way, but if you consider yourself a smart or informed person then you're doing yourself a disservice by not actually understanding any of this.
I wasn't about to give socialists the benefit of the doubt, especially not in this thread where people actually created sockpuppet accounts just to call me a "bolsonaro minion" who needs to move to Afghanistan. You seem to be posting in good faith though.
I believe socialism inevitably leads to oppressive totalitarian states. Simply because nobody wants to work for no reward. People must be forced into such slavery and that's inevitably what happens. It's what's happened every time it was tried. Because the alternative is starvation.
The only way that could possibly work is if nobody had to work. That's only possible if there's abundance instead of scarcity. If there's no scarcity, then there is no need to economize. In other words, real socialism is actually a fully automated economy-less post-scarcity society.
Brazil is so ridiculously far from that ideal that it's comical to even suggest implanting socialism here. Comical. The damage caused by that idea is worse than literal nazis roaming free. These people have infiltrated every school, every university.
